Peyton Manning has made a revelation about his nephew Arch Manning that should have opposition players worried.

The Texas quarterback will be starting for the Longhorns after spending his first two years on the bench, which most insist was the plan all along.

It appears his uncle cannot wait to watch him play in 2025, especially given the way he impressed after stepping in after Quinn Ewers got injured last season.

“I’m excited to watch Arch play,” the former NFL star said on ‘The Pat McAfee Show’ this week. “He’s been very patient. I thought he threw the ball really well at the camp.”

Manning, a two-time Super Bowl champion and five-time MVP, is in awe of his nephew’s arm strength, which he rates higher than his own at his peak. He also lauded that of LSU’s Garrett Nussmeier.

“They make throws that I wouldn’t even think about making,” he added. “I mean, Arch made a throw the other day that I’d have to hit the cutoff man to get the ball to the actual receiver.”

Peyton Manning Says Arch’s Style Of Play Isn’t Modeled After His Or Eli’s

Peyton believes that Arch’s style of play comes more from his dad, Cooper, than from him or their other brother, Eli.

“I think that little swagger comes from his dad, and that’s good to see,” he said. “Look, Arch has got to be his own person. And he can move. My dad’s speed sort of skipped a generation, skipped me and Eli, and I think Arch has that.”

As noted above, Arch Manning gave a great account of himself at Texas last season, even showing a surprising facet to his game when he switched on the afterburners for a 67-yard touchdown run against UTSA in Week 3. The rush saw him clock 20.7 mph, which beat Tyreek Hill’s top speed in 2024.

Arch appeared in 10 games, registering 939 yards for nine touchdowns and two interceptions, adding another four scores from the ground.
