It’s been announced that Philadelphia Eagles running back Saquon Barkley will feature on not one, but two special covers for “Madden NFL 26”, set to hit shelves on August 14th. Given his impressive performance last year, it’s no shock that he’s graced the cover of this year’s game.
Barkley marks the first time an Eagles player has been featured on a Madden NFL cover since Donovan McNabb in Madden 06, which means it’s been 20 years since an Eagles player graced the cover. Fans can expect to see Barkley and an amazing reverse huddle on the cover when Madden NFL 26 releases on August 14 for PC, Nintendo Switch 2, PS5, and Xbox Series X/S. Indeed, Madden NFL 26 is making its way to the Nintendo Switch 2 as well.
On two different covers, Barkley is showcased, one depicting his remarkable reverse hurdle from the previous season. This leap is not just an impressive athletic achievement, but even more astounding because it was executed against another player. This momentous event was already etched in history before the launch of Madden NFL 26, but with it being inducted into the Madden NFL 99 Club, his record-breaking season, and Barkley himself, choosing him for the covers seems only logical.

Barkley became the first NFL player ever to surpass 2500 rushing yards in a single season, across both regular games and playoffs. He further solidified this remarkable achievement by guiding the Eagles to victory against the Kansas City Chiefs in Super Bowl LIX, as he himself described.
Having the honor of being featured on Madden NFL 26’s cover and induction into the Madden NFL ’99 Club is a dream realized. I am deeply appreciative of my teammates, coaches, and Eagles fans for their unwavering support. I eagerly look forward to returning to the field in Madden NFL 26, creating even more spectacular plays for its players.
Absolutely, having such a prominent character on the cover generates anticipation that Madden NFL 26 will dominate as a football game. On June 4, fans will have the opportunity to see this for themselves as new features and an official unveiling of Madden NFL 26 occur. Throughout the summer and in the weeks preceding its release, more details about the game will be shared.
Enthusiasts have the opportunity to pre-purchase the Deluxe Version of Madden NFL 26, granting advantages like early access, 4600 Madden Points, and additional bonuses. For those aiming for an even more immersive experience, there’s also the EA Sports MVP Package available. This package comes with both Madden NFL 26 and College Football 26, the latter featuring Alabama WR Ryan Williams and Ohio State WR Jeremiah Smith on its cover.
