Has there ever been a more fitting combination in advertising history? A soup called Chunky and a chunky running back.
That’s right.
Green Bay Packers running back Eddie Lacy is now a Campbell’s Chunky soup man.
He will appear in ads — along with Saints quarterback Drew Brees, Giants receiver Odell Beckham Jr., Rams running back Todd Gurley, Lions tight end Eric Ebron and Bears offensive lineman Kyle Long — this fall.
The campaign is called the “Everyman All-Star League” and is built around the idea of pro football players drafting everyday guys who are good at arcane tasks.
