Even though he’s considered as one of the best individuals to ever play the sport of basketball, LeBron James knows his football very well. This is evident when the Los Angeles Lakers star dropped his Mount Rushmore of NFL quarterbacks recently.
In a social media post, the NBA icon named Tom Brady, Patrick Mahomes, Joe Montana, and Peyton Manning, with a notable mention of John Elway, before ultimately choosing Manning over him.

Brady’s inclusion is hardly surprising, given his unparalleled legacy in the NFL. With seven Super Bowl championships to his name, he has redefined the standards of success for quarterbacks. His remarkable ability to perform under pressure, coupled with an impressive record of career touchdowns, cements his status as one of the greatest to ever play the game.
Joe Montana is celebrated for his exceptional poise and clutch performances, particularly during his four Super Bowl victories. His precision passing and leadership have left an indelible mark on the sport, making him a natural choice for James’ list.
Peyton Manning, known for his cerebral approach to the game, revolutionized the quarterback position with his remarkable ability to read defenses and make quick decisions. His two Super Bowl wins and numerous MVP awards reflect his significant impact on the NFL.
