It’s not often that two bitter rivals, scratching and clawing towards the mountain top, end up being very close friends, but that is what retired quarterbacks Peyton Manning and Tom Brady have become.
There was undoubtedly a mutual respect between the two quarterbacks throughout their playing careers, with Manning and Brady going up against each other for nearly two decades in the AFC when Manning played for the Colts and Broncos and Brady played for the Patriots.
Manning dove into the origin of his friendship with Brady on Brady’s Let’s Go! podcast earlier this week.
