With Black Friday just around the corner, Oddspedia has released new odds on the NFL teams and players who are most likely to drive merchandise sales during the retail surge — and the Philadelphia Eagles’ merchandise is expected to dominate Black Friday, both at the team and player level.
Philadelphia Eagles Expected To Lead NFL Merch Sales
The Philadelphia Eagles (+300, 25%) are the front-runner to generate the highest volume of team-branded merchandise on Black Friday, thanks to their momentum on the field, combined with their passionate fanbase.
The Eagles are followed closely by the Kansas City Chiefs (+350, 22%). The Chiefs are a fun team with a modern dynasty. Even though the team is underwhelming this season, the team’s star power continues to be a mainstay in American culture, partially due to Taylor Swift’s relationship with Travis Kelce.
If the Eagles get their expected win against the Chicago Bears on Black Friday, we can expect merch sales to go through the roof. Black Friday wins fuel merch demand by up to 400%. Saquon Barkley’s Eagles Jersey Predicted to Be Best-Seller
Among individual NFL player merchandise, Saquon Barkley’s new jersey (+175, 36%) is forecast to be the top Black Friday seller. Quarterback Jalen Hurts (+250, 28%) is expected to follow, maintaining Hurts’ long-established retail appeal as one of the NFL’s most marketable stars.
Final Thoughts
Philadelphia is one of the most fun NFL teams to watch, whether you’re an NFC East fan or not. Philadelphia’s fanbase often gets a bad reputation, but there are good and bad fans in each NFL fanbase.
Philadelphia currently ranks in first place in a quite weak NFC East, with the Dallas Cowboys at 4-5-1, the Washington Commanders at 3-8, and the New York Giants at 2-9. Although anything can happen, I don’t see the Cowboys surpassing Philadelphia this season. Philadelphia’s lead will likely remain.
