Eckrich, a part of the John Morrell Food Group, a division of Smithfield Foods, announced its new line of smoked sausages bearing Herbstreit’s name and likeness earlier this month. The former Ohio State quarterback has been a spokesperson for Eckrich since 2008.
“I’m excited about the new Eckrich ‘Ultimate Tailgate’ products,” said Herbstreit in a press release obtained by PR Newswire. “I’ve partnered with Eckrich for a long time now and they continue to align with values I believe in, including families and enriching the lives of others.”
