Look: Manning to join Beckham in paying tribute to high school with shoes

Robert Deutsch / USA TODAY Sports

It's well known that New York Giants teammates Eli Manning and Odell Beckham have a special bond, both graduating from Newman High School in New Orleans.

So if Beckham is planning a tribute to his high school, Manning might as well do it too.

The one-handed-catch specialist announced plans for yet another display of custom cleats for Thursday night's game against the Philadelphia Eagles: a pair of kicks with grass from his high school field inside them. Closer to game time, the Giants announced Manning will be doing the same.

Manning's shoes aren't as festive as Beckham's, but they carry the same sentiment.
