Philadelphia, PA – June 26, 2025
Eagles star Saquon Barkley is soaring off the field! The Super Bowl LIX hero has signed a record-breaking endorsement deal with luxury brand Hermès, cementing his status as a global icon, sources told ESPN.
Fresh off a historic 2,504-yard season, Barkley’s marketability skyrocketed. Hermès, eyeing his charisma, inked a multi-year deal reportedly worth $10 million annually, the richest for an NFL running back.
“I’m honored to join Hermès’ legacy,” Barkley said. “It’s about elevating style and inspiring fans.” His campaign, launching in Paris, features him showcasing Hermès’ iconic Birkin bags and sleek apparel.
Barkley’s 2024 NFL Offensive Player of the Year award and Eagles’ $41.2 million extension made him a hot commodity. Hermès saw a perfect blend of athletic prowess and cultural influence.
Philly fans, while proud, fear losing Barkley’s focus. X posts from @EaglesNation lament, “Saquon’s a star, but stay locked in!” His on-field dominance remains crucial for back-to-back titles.
The Hermès deal catapults Barkley past peers like Christian McCaffrey in endorsements. His Malvern, PA, roots and French citizenship since 2023 add global appeal to the partnership.
Set to debut at Paris Fashion Week, Barkley’s campaign could redefine athlete branding. Eagles coaches trust his work ethic, but the spotlight’s on balancing fame and football.
As training camp looms, Barkley’s star burns brighter. Can he juggle Hermès’ glitz and Philly’s gridiron? Fans hope their RB stays grounded while shining worldwide.
Message to Eagles fans: Saquon’s global, but Philly’s his heart!
