FAMOUS SIBLINGS CURRENTLY IN SPORTS


If are pair of brothers or sisters are currently active in pro sports, chances are it runs in the family. There are many combinations of brothers particularly that are currently playing in the pros and so a lot of people are unaware of it, so I will make you aware. You don’t have to thank me, but you could comment once in a while.

How would you fare if you had to compete against one of your sibs? What would it be like if you had that sib on your team? Would the stats stack in your favor? One thing you will notice, there are no brothers currently competing in the NBA.

In the NFL there are many, and too many to list here that may not be around soon, so I will try to list only two to three each sport.

Peyton and Eli Manning:
Probably the most famous brothers in pro sports right now, Peyton Manning is the newly signed starting quarterback for the Denver Broncos while his brother Eli is the reigning king of starting quarterbacks for the New York Giants with his current Super Bowl wins.

They also have a cousin who is a wide receiver in the NFL: Randy Moss, who played for the New England Patriots.
