Eli, Peyton and Archie Manning threw the ceremonial first toss at a Chelsea football tournament for fathers and children yesterday. The Manning fam held their reunion at the NERF Father’s Day Football Throwdown to help city residents celebrate their fathers. Said Peyton:

“This has been special — with Eli here in New York, and my dad and older brother Cooper in New Orleans and I’m in Indianapolis, we’re not together as a group very often. And so this has been a special time, and throwing the football is something that we used to do a lot growing up as kids and it’s been a fun day today being here with all these kids and parents.”

In connection with the event, toy company Hasbro made a donation to Peyton’s PeyBack Foundation, which provides disadvantaged youth with growth opportunities and a leadership program. FYI, two new Peyton Manning signature NERF footballs will be introduced this year: NERF Peyton Manning Vortex Mega Howler and NERF Peyton Manning Rocket Pass football.
