It seems like EA Sports has chosen the perfect man to be the face of the upcoming edition of the Madden 26 video game. It was announced in June that the Philadelphia Eagles star running back, Saquon Barkley, will join the illustrious Madden 99 club as the game's cover star. On Monday, Barkley did a heartwarming gesture for his teammate Lane Johnson.

The Eagles' X handle made a post featuring Barkley. In the video, the Madden 26 cover star presented Johnson with a box. In the surprise box was a chain shaped like the digit 99, revealing that the offensive tackle is the newest addition to the Madden 99 club.

The video caught the attention of Eagles legend Jason Kelce. The seven-time Pro Bowler quote-tweeted the post to congratulate Johnson.

"This is f**king awesome!! One of the rarest clubs to be a part of, Congrats brotha!! [Lane Johnson]," Kelce wrote.
