says Cooper of his family. &#8220;I think we&#8217;re all wired a little bit the same, but certainly the edge gets a little sharper as you probably go up the age ladder.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">These days, the Mannings are residing in different cities all over the country, making it harder for them to spend time all together. Cooper lives in New Orleans, where his parents, famed New Orleans Saints quarterback\u00a0Archie, 76, and\u00a0Olivia, 72, also reside. Eli lives in Summit, New Jersey, with his wife Abby and their four children, and Peyton, 49, and his family are in Denver, Colorado.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Read the original article on <a href=\"https:\/\/people.com\/eli-manning-says-his-parents-were-very-relaxed-on-rules-because-this-brother-always-got-in-trouble-exclusive-11848100\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:People;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">People<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/nz.news.yahoo.com\/eli-manning-says-parents-were-213000336.html\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>NEED TO KNOW Eli Manning reveals how his older brother Cooper Manning helped &#8220;relax&#8221; their parents&#8217; rules because he &#8220;always got in trouble&#8221; Cooper, meanwhile, tells PEOPLE he and his brothers Eli and Peyton Manning have &#8220;different&#8221; personalities The Mannings &#8220;all like to give each other a hard time&#8221; and are &#8220;not afraid to get &#8230; <a title=\"Eli Manning Says His Parents Were &#8216;Very Relaxed on Rules&#8217; Because \u201cThis\u201d Brother &#8216;Always Got in Trouble&#8217; (Exclusive)\" class=\"read-more\" href=\"https:\/\/www.jubi24.com\/?p=11478\" aria-label=\"Read more about Eli Manning Says His Parents Were &#8216;Very Relaxed on Rules&#8217; Because \u201cThis\u201d Brother &#8216;Always Got in Trouble&#8217; (Exclusive)\">Read more<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":11479,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"fifu_image_url":"","fifu_image_alt":"","_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":true,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2}},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-11478","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-uncategorized"],"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/www.jubi24.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/Eli-Manning-Says-His-Parents-Were-Very-Relaxed-on-Rules.jpeg","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.jubi24.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/11478","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.jubi24.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.jubi24.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.jubi24.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.jubi24.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=11478"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.jubi24.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/11478\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":11480,"href":"https:\/\/www.jubi24.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/11478\/revisions\/11480"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.jubi24.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/11479"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.jubi24.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=11478"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.jubi24.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=11478"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.jubi24.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=11478"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
