Arch wasn’t the only Manning who made his first start on Saturday

Arch Manning (19) made the first start of his college career on Saturday night when the Texas Longhorns hosted the Louisiana-Monroe Warhawks at DKR-Texas Memorial Stadium in Austin.

Arch’s younger cousin, Charley (6) also made his first football start on Saturday. Eli Manning posted a video of his son playing flag football on his Twitter/X page.

“Arch is not the only Manning to get his first start today,” Eli captioned the video of Charles completing a pass:

Arch is the son of Cooper Manning, who is the older brother of former NFL quarterbacks Peyton Manning and Eli Manning.

Peyton’s son, Marshall (13), is a youth football player who has shown off his strong arm at the Pro Bowl. Marshall is also a quarterback, and his youth football league banned his team from running the “Tush Push” play.

Arch won’t be eligible for the NFL draft before 2026 at the earliest. While Arch plays in college, Marshall is nearing high school and Charley is just beginning his football journey. May the Manning era long continue.
