Giants great Eli Manning takes surprising stance on artificial turf following Aaron Rodgers’ injury


Aaron Rodgers season-ending Achilles injury in his debut with the New York Jets on Monday night has prompted the NFLPA and several players to call on the league to move towards all-grass fields. But one former quarterback who’s familiar with the artificial turf at MetLife Stadium, seemingly disagrees. Former New York Giants quarterback Eli Manning made the argument for keeping artificial turf fields during an appearance on the “Front Office Sports Today” podcast this week, saying that for MetLife especially, it makes sense. He was eventually carted off the field before an MRI the following morning confirmed the team’s worst fears – his season was over. So, I feel for the Jets and everything, but I was happy for Zach Wilson to get in there and have a comeback victory.
