The release ofMadden NFL 20is quickly approaching, and many players have been wondering what the ratings of the players to be featured in the game are. Now, those figures have been released on EA Sports’Maddenwebsite for all tentativeMadden NFL 20buyers to read up on.
Leading up to the release ofMaddengames, player ratings are a relatively important discussion for their relevance to the sport on which the popular game franchise is based. While no player has receivedMadden NFL 11’s perfect 100 rating for Randy Moss, there are a number of players who have received impressively high ratings.

At a rating of 96 inMadden NFL 20, Brady has previously helped lead the Patriots to multiple Super Bowl victories. Also,Brady has been on the coverof previousMaddentitles, includingMadden NFL 18.
Meanwhile, Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes came in as the quarterback with the highest rating of 97. This makes sense, asMahomes is the cover athleteand the reigning MVP of the league. Stats and 2018 accomplishments notwithstanding, it’s still a bit surprising to see Mahomes rated higher than some of the other QBs in the game.
Overall, the player with the highest rating inMadden NFL 20is Rams Right End Aaron Donald, who has an overall 99 rating and a Strength Rating of 99. He is closely followed by Texans Wide Receiver Deandre Hopkins, Bears Left Outside Linebacker Khalil Mack, and Seahawks Middle Linebacker Bobby Wagner. These are a diverse group of players, showing that far more goes into player ratings than the position of the player, even if that is more important.
