Eli Manning trolled by Tom Brady immediately after joining Twitter, fans react comically

New York Giants legend Eli Manning may not be playing in the NFL anymore, but the former quarterback is still a loved figure among Giants faithful. The two-time Super Bowl winner recently joined Twitter among much fanfare from his fans. However, among all tweets in regard to Manning joining Twitter, a welcome tweet from his former rival Tom Brady stood out.

Unlike fans, who generally expressed their delight, Tom Brady chose a rather hilarious dig at the former quarterback. Brady compared Eli Manning's late show on Twitter to his NFL career, claiming he 'never showed until the fourth quarterback.' Tom Brady tweeted out his welcome message just 30 minutes after Eli Manning shared his first post on the social media platform. 

The former Giants quarterback, however, also stood his ground with an equally potent comeback. The quarterback drew shade on Brady's golf showdown against his brother, Peyton Manning, that also involved golf legends Tiger Woods and Phil Mickelson.

The Match Champions for Charity: Manning-Woods beat Brady-Mickelson

The Match: Champions for Charity took place on Sunday, May 24, at The Medalist Golf Club in Hobe Sound, Florida. Peyton Manning and Tiger Woods emerged victorious in the charity match. However, Tom Brady had a particularly rough night as he struggled during the opening stages of the 18-hole match. He did redeem himself later after he made a birdie from 150 yards out. 

Coming back to Eli Manning, the 39-year-old was a constant presence on Twitter during the golf match, providing commentary and taking subtle jibes at the NFL duo. Manning even highlighted the "Great-ish golf' on the show during the course of the match.

Apart from the banter between Eli Manning and Tom Brady, Peyton Manning also had been particularly busy trash-talking Brady ahead of the contest. Earlier this week, Peyton Manning joked that it wasn't for his mother, Tom Brady would have won 11 Super Bowls instead of just six. On Sunday, Manning even brought back the likes of brother, Nick Foles and Bill Belichick to unsettle Tom Brady. Unlike Eli Manning, his brother, Peyton, is yet to join Twitter.
