Giants’ Eli Manning Will Host ‘Saturday Night Live’ On May 5

Eli Manning has already surpassed his older brother Peyton in one area: Super Bowl rings. Now he’s got his sights set on equaling big bro in another arena — he’s hosting “Saturday Night Live” for the first time.

NBC announced during a commercial break on last night’s show that Manning, along with musical guest Rihanna, would appear on the May 5 show.

Peyton Manning also hosted “SNL” once, headlining the March 24, 2007 episode. Eli made an appearance in his brother’s opening monologue.

Eli Manning won his second Super Bowl MVP this past season, leading his New York Giants to victory over the New England Patriots in Super Bowl XLVI.
