Panini America has officially entered the autographed memorabilia arena with University of Texas quarterback Arch Manning, unveiling a multi‑year, exclusive partnership that expands on their existing trading‑card collaboration. While specific contract terms remain confidential, the agreement marks Manning’s first venture into officially licensed memorabilia.
Collectors can now acquire Arch Manning signatures on a range of items via Panini’s online store:
Autographed Photos starting at $699.99
Signed Helmets & Jerseys priced at $999.99
Additional Limited‑Edition Pieces to be announced throughout the season
Jason Howarth, Senior Vice President of Marketing and Athlete Relations at Panini America, praised the collaboration:
“We’re thrilled to introduce the first official Arch Manning memorabilia, giving Longhorn fans a chance to own a piece of his legacy before he even takes over the starting role. Arch has been an outstanding partner for the past two years, and we look forward to building on our shared success.”
As the eldest son of Cooper Manning—and grandson of Archie Manning, nephew to NFL greats Eli and Peyton—Arch carries a storied family tradition. His arrival in Austin has already generated significant excitement, both on the field and in the hobby community.
Since 2023, Manning and Panini have collaborated under his NIL agreement, highlighted by the landmark sale of a 1‑of‑1 Arch Manning Throwback Prizm Black Autograph card for $102,500. This memorabilia deal leverages Panini’s dedicated NIL platform, which empowers collegiate athletes at partner schools to release their own signed trading cards.
“Launching my memorabilia collection with Panini America allows me to share a deeper connection with fans,” Manning said. “I’m proud to join the lineup of athletes worldwide who trust Panini to deliver exceptional autographed collectibles.”
Panini America’s new Arch Manning memorabilia lineup not only strengthens its University of Texas relationship but also sets the stage for a wave of high‑end collegiate collectibles as Manning gears up for his first season as Texas’s starting quarterback.
