Yes Aky, Eli is Peyton's little brother.

I just read an article where Eli's talking of his brother's return to the game after injuries.

Out of interest, Peyton seems to be a legend in the game of football so how is his younger brother getting on? A hard act to follow from his amazing big brother?

Eli is 2-0 in the Super Bowl with 2 Super Bowl MVP's. Getting along pretty well if you ask me

Yeah Peyton's probably one of the three greatest quarterbacks to ever play the game. Eli's done pretty well for himself, though-- he's won two Super Bowls and has gone to a couple Pro Bowls. He's never been the player that Peyton has been, but that's a really tough act to live up to. Most teams would have been more than happy to have Eli as their quarterback over the last ten years.

Their father Archie was also a pretty good quarterback in his day for the New Orleans Saints.
