While he has not been taking many snaps lately, Arch Manning is still going viral over something he did off the field.
The Texas Longhorns quarterback, who is the nephew of Peyton and Eli Manning, is going viral after he sported a hilarious Scooby Doo costume for Halloween.
Manning could be seen smiling while talking with others at what looks to be a campus party. It had many people online comparing him to former Heisman Trophy winner Johnny Manziel.
Some went so far as to call Arch “lil bro” for copying the former Aggies QB:
For those who may not remember, Manziel wore a similar costume back in his college days at Texas A&M, just 48 hours prior to beating up on Mississippi State.
Fans certainly enjoyed the rare picture of Manning while outside of a uniform and on the sidelines watching games.
The Manning family is arguably the most important family in the history of football.
Arch Manning is trying to add to the legacy.
Manning, who is in his second season in Austin, provided fans a taste of the future earlier this season when he started two games in place of the injured Quinn Ewers.
In his first career start, Manning threw for 258 yards and two touchdowns in a 51-3 win over Louisiana-Monroe.
In his second start, he lit up the Mississippi State defense for 325 yards, two touchdowns, and one rushing touchdown.
The Longhorns will return to action on Nov. 9 as they are hosting the Florida Gators.
Arch Manning Will Have His Chance to Shine In 2025
Arch Manning is not eligible for the 2025 NFL Draft because he is still in his second year as a redshirt freshman at the University of Texas.
Even if he was, he would likely still come back and play at least one year under center as the unquestioned starter.
He has been the subject of much hype, with some saying he is the best NFL quarterback prospect in college football.
With Quinn Ewers likely headed off to the league after the 2024 season, Arch Manning should take over for him at Texas and show what he truly has.
