Auburn football: American Eagle gets to know Tank Bigsby in new NIL deal
Auburn football’s star running back has officially partnered with the clothing brand American Eagle as the season progresses to week five. Tank Bigsby, sophomore RB, first entered the NIL mix by debuting his own personal logo back in July.
His next venture goes deeper as American Eagle partners with “our favorite college athletes to get to know them better and find out how they wear their AE jeans…” and interviews Bigsby, per the AE blog:
"How would you describe yourself?A nice, generous person. I care about people and I love my family.How did you start playing football?When I was 7, I’d seen my brother playing. And the rest is history.Fill in the blank! My favorite thing about football…Is that I can show my skills and show what God blessed me with. Something you’re looking forward to doing with friends and family this fall?I love Thanksgiving break and Christmas break, to be able to have a big event with my family. We don’t get to do that often.What important life lesson has football taught you?Never give up. That you can do anything you put your mind to… Football teaches me how to be a man.What’s your personal style off the field?Relaxed, cool, and about business."
Tank Bigsby becomes American Eagle’s second athlete after USC Trojans quarterback Kedon Slovis. Auburn football fans were excited to see Tank earn his next big opportunity:
