Arch Manning Opens Up About Josh Allen’s Influence

2025-09-10 02:34:54

Arch Manning

has a lot of people around him to seek advice on how to play the quarterback position even better than he already does. As his name indicates, Arch is related to a long line of former NFL quarterbacks.

The five-star recruit is the nephew of Super Bowl winners

Peyton

and

Eli Manning

and the grandson of former Saints QB

Archie Manning

. He has access to some of the most brilliant minds football fans have ever witnessed.

He takes occasional advantage, but there’s a
stylistic difference
between how Peyton and Eli played the game with Arch. The 21-year-old is a powerful runner and has a cannon for an arm. Does the style remind folks back home of someone they are familiar with?

That’s pretty much how Buffalo Bills star QB and the reigning league MVP,

Josh Allen

, plays football. Aside from Allen, young Manning also keeps tabs on another AFC quarterback.

I’m watching a lot of Josh Allen and Joe Burrow right now. Those are my guys. They’re dogs. I’ve watched some of their college film. They’re just good players, elite competitors, and fun to watch

.

Arch Manning said at the recently concluded annual Manning Passing Academy camp

There are clear similarities between Allen and Manning. Neither is as fast as 2x league MVP

Lamar Jackson

, but they have a knack for making powerful plays with their feet.

Joe Burrow

, on the other hand, is one of the best passers of the current generation who led the league with 40+ touchdowns in 2024.

Manning spent the first two seasons as a backup at the Texas Longhorns. However, when starter and Dolphins seventh-round pick

Quinn Ewers

did not play,

Steve Sarkisian

gave Manning the opportunity to show his skills, and he
made the most of it
. Manning had 13 overall touchdowns and a 67.8% completion rate from 10 appearances (two starts) last season as the Longhorns reached the college football playoffs, where they suffered defeat at the Cotton Bowl to eventual champions, the Ohio State Buckeyes.

Arch Manning is favored to win the Heisman Trophy

The battle for the best football player in college last year was intense.

Shedeur Sanders

and

Cam Ward

started out as the top two players to bag the coveted trophy. It did not take long for wildcards to dethrone the two quarterbacks.

Travis Hunter

and

Ashton Jeanty

fought tooth and nail until the end. Colorado’s two-way star eventually got the nod ahead of the Boise State running back.

The Heisman race in 2025 seems straightforward, if anyone asks the
betting experts
in Vegas. DraftKings Sportsbook is confident that Texas’s Arch Manning will win the Heisman Trophy by a landslide. In fact,
Bleacher Report
revealed that 35 percent of the overall bets and 20 percent of the handle are going toward the Longhorns signal-caller.

Manning checks in with +650 odds, followed by LSU quarterback

Garrett Nussmeier

at +850, Clemson quarterback

Cade Klubnik

at +950, and Penn State quarterback

Drew Aller

at +1,600. Ohio State wide receiver

Jeremiah Smith

, at +1,100, is the best-rated non-quarterback on the list.

The 2025 campaign is shaping up to be another banger. If Manning performs to his strength, then there’s a high chance he might declare for the 2026 NFL draft.
