The high school freshman currently serves as the team's backup quarterback, but entered a game against McCallie after it turned into a blowout.

With his dad watching, the younger Manning helped lead Baylor on a touchdown drive in the second half of the contest.

The class of 2030 signal-caller previously missed time this season due to a foot injury .

Baylor took a 21-0 lead at the end of the first quarter and never looked back, cruising to a 49-7 win. With the victory, the team now owns a perfect 7-0 record.

While Manning serves as a depth option behind starting passer Keegan Croucher, he's seen action on multiple occasions this season.
