Count Texas QB Arch Manning in on EA Sports “College Football 25.”
The sophomore quarterback announced his intentions on Tuesday with help from his two-time Super Bowl-winning Uncle Eli Manning.
Arch Manning, who likely will back up Quinn Ewers in 2024 with the Longhorns, was one of the biggest names not to be “in.”
Arch Manning had said previously he only wanted to focus on playing football “on the field.”

Players who have opted in will receive a free copy of the game and $600. That’s thanks to the rules that now permit college athletes — and those at the prep level in many states — to benefit from their Name, Image and Likeness (NIL)
Or did Arch Manning receive somewhat more for the promotion of the game?
NIL Whispers: EA Sports paid Texas QB Arch Manning between $50-60K to promote College Football 25, @On3sports has learned.
The former No. 1 overall recruit in the 2023 class will also receive $600 and a copy of the game for opting in.
