Giants quarterback Manning receives $5 million roster bonus

[admin]

Eli Manning has a lot more green in his pocket this St. Patrick's Day. The New York Giants paid their veteran quarterback a $5 million roster bonus that was due Saturday, virtually assuring he will remain with the Giants in 2019. If the Giants were to change their mind and release the 38-year-old Manning, they would lose that money plus $6.2 million in dead salary cap space.
