The end of an era. The New York Giants no-longer call Eli Manning their starting job. The NFL may no-longer call him a member.

According to Ralph Vacchiano of SNY, Manning is likely to retire after the 2019 NFL season.

“It's Daniel Jones' ball now, and there's no way Manning would want to return to stand on the sidelines and watch his successor. The Giants probably don't want that either. Most likely, the Giants icon is going to retire. If not, he'll have to find a new home,” Vacchiano said.

If so, Week 15's win over the Miami Dolphins will act as Manning's last ever NFL game, barring a Daniel Jones injury of benching in Week 17 against the Philadelphia Eagles. In the win over the Dolphins, Manning went 20 of 28 passing for 283 yards, two touchdowns, and three interceptions.

Manning, 38, was the No. 1 overall pick of the 2004 NFL Draft by the San Diego Chargers, who then traded him to New York. Manning played 16 seasons with the Giants, going 117-117 in the process while tallying 57,023 yards, 366 touchdowns and 244 interceptions on a 60.3% completion rate.

Of course, Manning's legacy won't be defined by his regular-season wins or statistics. It is what he did in the postseason. Twice, the Ole Miss product led the Giants to the promised land, winning two Super Bowls (and Super Bowl MVPs), both over the New England Patriots.

If Manning calls it quits after Sunday's NFC East matchup, he will be appreciated as the Giants' best quarterback in franchise history. No matter his inconsistencies, he should find himself going into the Hall of Fame.
