Giants legend Eli Manning shared a picture of his son Charlie dressing up as his favorite quarterback on Halloween. And no, it is not the two-time Super Bowl champion.

Eli Manning's son decided to dress up as the New York Giants rookie, Jaxson Dart. He shared a photo of Charlie wearing Dart's jersey number while also copying his style. He flaunted a chain around his neck while wearing a headband over his blonde hair, just like Dart.

"Charlie said he wanted to dress up as his favorite @Giants quarterback ever for Halloween... Guess he got his wish," Manning wrote in the caption of the post.

On Monday on ESPN's "ManningCast", the two-time Super Bowl champion opened up about his son's dedication to nailing his look as a Jaxson Dart lookalike.

"(Charlie's) got the chain, which is nice," Manning said. "The problem is he's wanting to wear it. We got it last week, and he wants to wear it to school every day."

The Giants drafted Jaxson Dart 25th overall pick in this year's draft. He replaced veteran Russell Wilson as the QB1 after a disappointing 0-3 start to the season. The rookie quarterback has tallied a total of 984 yards and eight TDs passing, while rushing for 195 yards and four touchdowns.


Jaxson Dart opens up about Eli Manning's son Charlie dressing up as the rookie for Halloween

On Thursday, the Giants rookie said that it was "awesome" to see Eli Manning's son choose to dress up as him on Halloween.

"I think it's awesome," Dart said. "I've met Charlie a few times, obviously. Been around Eli a lot, and I think, maybe, like he said, he's a little disappointed that it wasn't him. But it's just a cool relationship, and I think it's awesome."

The Giants are next scheduled to face the San Francisco 49ers this Sunday at 1 p.m. ET. Can they bring an end to their two-game losing streak in Week 9?
