Peyton Manning forehead trolled by Tom Brady
These two arch-rivals on the field continue to find ways to take shots at each other off the field. Former Tennessee football quarterback Peyton Manning is no longer just getting trolled by Tom Brady for the difference in rings. Looks are now coming into play as well.
Brady shared one of his TikTok videos on Twitter that showed a weird camera angle above his forehead while he was practicing. The angle made his forehead look significantly bigger than it really is and generated laughs for everybody.
Not content with just those laughs, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback had to use it to take a shot at his former NFL rival. Brady called it the Peyton Manning angle, a clear shot at the size of the forehead of the former quarterback for the Denver Broncos and Indianapolis Colts.
Manning’s forehead size has always been a joke, but the funny part about it is it didn’t always seem to be that way. Perhaps it was because of the way he wore his hair, but pictures from him in 1997 with Tennessee football show a different look.
Maybe it was because of all the football information he internalized over the years, but Manning’s forehead definitely seemed to grow each year he was in the pros. This is how it looked like his final year in the league back in 2015.
Obviously, this was all in good fun. What’s funny about Tom Brady and Peyton Manning is that their rivalry from Brady’s New England Patriots days didn’t extend beyond the field. They clearly have a friendship and an appreciation for each other.
It’s unfortunate that Manning didn’t come close to Brady in terms of rings, but hey, he does have more regular season MVPs. By all metrics, Manning was better at his peak, even if Brady has the longevity factor. Judging by this, Brady has the joke factor too.
