Madden 25 releases player ratings update ahead of Super Bowl LIX

by

As a die-hard football enthusiast, I’m thrilled to share that the latest Madden 25 Player Ratings Update has dropped, just a week before the grand Super Bowl! This update brings overhauls for numerous players, reflected in their Overall (OVR) scores. The majority of these tweaks concern teams who fought it out in the Conference Championship Games. It’s essential to note that these updates don’t introduce any new gameplay alterations; they primarily focus on player ratings, injuries, free agent signings, and such. So, without any more delay, let’s dive into our top picks for winners and losers ahead of the Super Bowl!

Madden 25 Player Ratings Update For Super Bowl LIX

Overall, the most notable player ratings in this Madden 25 Super Bowl Roster Update include:

The @Eagles star up front gets to 98 OVR #Madden25 | @LaneJohnson65

Lane Johnson, Philadelphia Eagles – 98 OVR (+1)

As a gamer, I’m a vital cog in the mighty Eagles offensive line machine. It all begins in the trenches, and I’ve played a crucial role in keeping plays alive for both Barkey and Hurts. Alongside Jordan Mailata, Landon Dickerson, Cam Jurgens, and Mekhi Becton, our Philly O-line means business. We don’t mess around!

Trent McDuffie, Kansas City Chiefs – 94 OVR (+1)

4th highest rated CB in the game #Madden25 | @Chiefs

In 2024, McDuffie, who has been named to the second All Pro team twice, is still shining in his professional career. With two Super Bowl victories already under his belt, McDuffie heads a formidable defense under the guidance of Steve Spagnuolo. Next Sunday, McDuffie aims for his third Super Bowl ring, but he and the defense face a significant challenge in covering A.J. Brown, DeVonta Smith, and Dallas Goedert.

Saquon Barkley, Philadelphia Eagles – 98 OVR (No Change)

A year ago, Christian McCaffrey earned a spot in the 99 Club by contributing to his 49ers’ advancement to the Super Bowl. Given his outstanding performance during both the regular season and playoffs, this recognition was well-deserved. However, one might wonder why Saquon Barkley, the Eagles’ primary running back, hasn’t received a 99 Overall Rating yet? This season, he has accumulated more than 400 yards and scored five touchdowns in the postseason. With such impressive statistics, he is now a crucial element of the offense that will likely play a significant role in helping the Eagles reach Super Bowl LIX.

Even though we understand it’s only a game and what really matters to Barkley is securing a championship at this moment, it still seems unusual not to witness him as part of the team.

Other notable player OVR increases include:

  • C.J. Mosley – 87 OVR (-2)
  • Isiah Pacheco – 85 OVR (-1)
  • Taron Johnson – 84 OVR (-1)

In summary, the latest Madden 25 Super Bowl Roster Ratings Update highlights both the top performers and underperformers. Following this, EA Sports plans to unveil one final Roster Update, which will be rolled out post-Super Bowl. The players’ ratings could shift based on their performances during Super Bowl LIX. We are eagerly anticipating a thrilling replay between the Chiefs and the Eagles!
