Super 25 high school football rewind, Week 2
Six Super 25 teams lost, including St. John Bosco, Anderson and American Heritage, in what ended as a wild high school football weekend.
- Marshall Manning, son of Peyton Manning, is dealing with an injury.
- Manning is a freshman and serves as the backup quarterback for Baylor School’s football team.
Just one week removed from making his high school football debut for Baylor School(TN), ranked No. 10 in this week’s USA TODAY Sports Super 25 rankings, Marshall Manning will miss a few weeks with a foot injury, according to Stephen Hargis of the Chattanooga Times Free Press.
Hargis first reported that the freshman son of Hall of Fame quarterback Peyton Manning will not suit up for Baylor’s home game against Loudoun Sports Academy (Leesburg, Va.) in a post on X.
“He’s got a foot injury and will be out a few weeks,” Red Raiders coach Erik Kimrey reportedly said.
In Manning’s debut against Brentwood Academy (Tenn.) on Friday, Aug. 20, he connected with junior receiver Antwaun Adams for 6 yards and a first down on his first varsity snap.
He ran the ball on the next play before starting quarterback and Ole Miss commit Keegan Croucher returned to the helm to help lead the Red Raiders to a 38-20 victory over the Eagles.
Manning transferred to Baylor ahead of his eighth grade year from Denver and is serving as Baylor’s backup quarterback this season.
