Tom Brady

Whether it’s the desire to stay out of the spotlight or going by “the Patriot way” Tom Brady has never been on Madden’s cover. It may be more of a personal preference considering Rob Gronkowski was the last player to hit the cover.

The accolades don’t need to be written out for you to understand why #12 deserves to be on Madden at some point. Coming off his fifth Super Bowl victory the time is perfect for EA Sports to want the greatest quarterback in NFL history on their game.

Von Miller

Joining Khalil Mack on the list of NFL defenders who belong on the list is his AFC West counterpart, Von Miller. The linebacker has started every game of his career while going without a missed start for three seasons.

While his popularity may have been ideal for Madden coming off the Super Bowl victory last year, the linebacker is just as much of a household name today.
