Philadelphia Eagles star running back Saquon Barkley was announced Monday as EA Sports’ cover athlete for Madden NFL 26. Barkley’s sensational backward hurdle over a defender from Week 9 of last year’s Super Bowl-winning season is depicted on the standard cover. The deluxe edition features a tight shot of Barkley in his game-day gear.

On the deluxe edition cover of "Madden NFL 26," Barkley is depicted in the Eagles' standard home uniform from their Super Bowl LIX victory, casting an intense gaze through the side of his visor while illuminated by the grandeur of the championship stage.
