Arch Manning signs exclusive trading card deal with Panini America

There were rumors that Arch Manning was not going to sign any NIL deal until he took over as the starting quarterback for Texas. Well, that ship has sailed.
Arch Manning the nephew of legendary quarterbacks Peyton and Eli and the grandson of Archie has inked an agreement with Panini America. The NIL deal is an exclusive card deal which is a multi-year agreement including trading cards and exclusive autographs.
According to Manning, the first release is a signed one of one Prizm black card autographed by the freshman gunslinger that will be auctioned this week on Panini’s website with all the proceeds going to St. David’s Healthcare and St. David’s Foundation in Austin, Texas.
“Getting my first Panini trading card is something I couldn’t have imagined growing up,” Manning said in a statement. “Working with Panini to have my first trading card benefit the larger community is special. Helping children live healthy and fulfilling lives is something that has always been important to my family.”
There is no amount that was paid for the exclusive deal but I bet it was a pretty penny.
