Not even the No. 2 overall pick in the 2018 NFL Draft can alter the unwavering confidence of two-time Super Bowl champ Eli Manning. He's looking forward to a fruitful future not only in the swaps of the New Jersey Meadowlands, but with his favorite target.

Cool as a cucumber, as per usual, Manning explained just how excited he is to spend his future with the Giants and with megastar Odell Beckham Jr., via Tom Rock of Newsday.

“I think over the years you just can’t get caught up with what’s being said on TV or in the news or what people assume is happening,” Manning said, via Newsday. “It doesn’t help. You don’t know where these things get started or where it’s going. I think it’s important when those things happen to just have great communication with your coaches and with the ownership and whatnot and make sure everyone is on the same page. I never got too concerned with it. We all know the talent that Odell has and what he brings to the football field and I look forward to playing with him this year and for years to come.”
