Caitlin Clark recently made an appearance on ‘The Eli Manning Show’ and discussed a number of personal topics over a round of mini-golf. Manning and Shaun O’Hara asked Clark to either answer a question or make a score successfully, and the episode surely revealed some juicy secrets about the Indiana Fever superstar’s personal life.
One of the questions that Clark was forced to answer was who is her favorite NFL player. Much to Eli Manning’s dislike, Clark named Peyton Manning as her favorite former football player. She also went on to state that Kansas City Chiefs quarterback, Patrick Mahomes is current favorite NFL player.
“Former, I’m going Peyton. I actually had a Peyton Manning jersey growing up… Not to make you mad, Eli, but I’m going Peyton. Current, I’m going Patrick Mahomes. You know I’m a big Chiefs fan, so,” Caitlin Clark said on ‘The Eli Manning Show’.

Caitlin Clark then joked to Eli Manning, asking for his signed jersey so that she can move his name to the top of her list. Clark has indeed been a staunch Kansas City Chiefs fan and was seen at several Chiefs games in the most recently concluded NFL season. Clark not only attended Chiefs games, but also impressed fans and the audience by showing off her friendship with pop-star Taylor Swift, who is currently dating Travis Kelce, who is a tight end for the Chiefs.

Caitlin Clark Attends Butler Bulldogs Game To Support BF Connor McCaffery
Caitlin Clark managed to be in two places at the same time on Wednesday, as she attended the Iowa Hawkeyes vs. Wisconsin Badgers and then showed up to Hinkle Fieldhouse to witness the Butler Bulldogs take on the Xavier Musketeers. Clark fans were in awe of her dedication to the sport and to her beau, Connor McCaffery, who is currently a coach with the Butler Bulldogs.

However, her presence did not seem to bring any luck to the Butler Bulldogs as they lost to the Xavier Musketeers with a final score of 91-78. In that game, Jahmyl Telfort led Butler’s offense with 20 points on the scoreboard, grabbing six rebounds and assisting thrice, while Finley Bizjack contributed 19 more points for the team, with three rebounds and three helpers each.

The Butler Bulldogs are currently riding a three-game losing streak, and are scheduled to take on the Creighton Bluejays in the season finale this weekend. Currently, the Butler Bulldogs are ninth in the Big East table with a 6-13 conference score and 13-17 overall on the season.
