Eli Manning Gets Standing Ovation 1 Week After Being Benched

New York Giants fans clearly missed their starting quarterback.

After being benched for last week's game against the Oakland Raiders following 210 consecutive regular-season starts, Eli Manning returned to the lineup for Sunday's contest versus the Dallas Cowboys at MetLife Stadium.

Big Blue supporters welcomed the two-time Super Bowl MVP with a standing ovation before he took his first snap of the afternoon. A pair of fans saluted Manning with a sign that read "All I want for Xmas is Eli."

Manning's new streak begins at one.
