Fans are putting some pressure on Eli Manning’s son despite the kid being just six years old.
The Manning name is legendary and appears to come with expectations, something young Charlie is probably finding out.
“My buddy is getting big,” he wrote as the caption.
Fans all had the same question.
“Is he playing QB in the future?” one asked.
“How’s his spiral?” another queried. “Good footwork?”
“Can he throw the ball 30 yards yet? If not, send him to his room without dinner,” a third commented.
Future Giant legend,” a fourth predicted.
“Peyton sure has grown!” another fan joked.

Eli Manning Is Hoping Charlie Plays Football When He’s Older
Eli Manning is hopeful that his youngest will follow in his footsteps. Two years ago, he told PEOPLE he was training Charlie and that, while he would love to see him play football, he would never force it on him.
“We’re doing a little knee football, or I’m on my knees and he’s, you know, running,” he joked. “Trying to teach him ball security, those important things.”
Manning has three other kids, all girls: Ava, Lucy, and Carolina.
It appears they have him spread pretty thin in retirement.
“We have a swimmer; we have lacrosse players. We have a hockey player. We have one that’s more gymnastics and dance. So all doing a little bit of everything,” he said. “I’m an Uber driver, basically.”
