Back on January 3 during a ManningCast broadcast of the Pittsburgh Steelers-Cleveland Browns game, Snoop Dogg virtually presented retired New York Giants quarterback Eli Manning a gold “Death Row Records” chain for his birthday.
“Eli I would like to present to you this Death Row chain for being so hip-hop and being so hip. That is yours baby, when I see you, and put that around your neck. Happy 41st birthday Eli,” Snoop said at the time.
“Thank you, I will look good in that,” Eli responded.
Eli’s brother, Peyton, immediately implored him to wear the gold chain during their next Monday night broadcast. That came during a wildcard playoff matchup between the Los Angeles Rams and Arizona Cardinals.
Sure enough, Snoop had the chain sent to Eli and it arrived in time for the latest ManningCast airing.

And as promised, Manning wore the chain throughout Monday night’s broadcast, showing it off to the likes of Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson, Russell Wilson and Larry Fitzgerald.
