Saquon Barkley Reigns Supreme On and Off the Field
Saquon Barkley Reigns Supreme On and Off the Field originally appeared on Athlon Sports. Philadelphia Eagles running back Saquon Barkley has helped make the running back position cool again—finishing as the top player in NFLPA-licensed products for the period of March 1, 2024 through February 28, 2025. Advertisement The Super Bowl LIX champion and 2024 NFL rushing leader became the first running back to top the list since Cowboys running back Ezekiel Elliott in 2017. The rankings included more than 85 licensed products including apparel, bobbleheads, accessories, figurines, wall decals, backpacks, and drinkware. "It is the most comprehensive and up-to-date snapshot of player-driven consumer demand, offering a strong indicator of the NFL's most marketable and influential athletes -- impacting everything from endorsements to overall earning potential," the NFLPA said in a release. Barkley is also the cover athlete for EA Sports video game Madden 26—becoming the first player since former Eagles quarterback Donovan McNabb who appeared on the Madden cover in 2006. Advertisement While his success off the field is phenomenal, Barkley is determined to continue producing at a high level on the gridiron. "I don't mean it in an arrogant way. I want to be the best running back to ever play, or at least one of the best running backs to ever play," Barkley said. "Don't think there's a way you can prove who's the best. But that's always been my motivation. "I feel like God's blessed me with a unique ability, and put me through a lot of adversity, and that's still going to be my mindset. So the love of the game, wanting to win, and wanting to compete and be great is always going to push me, no matter if we win four Super Bowls." If Barkley continues his current trajectory, he will most certainly have a strong argument to be on the NFL's Mount Rushmore of all-time greatest running backs.
