Madden gave a clear nod to quarterbacks Tom Brady and Patrick Mahomes for the latest EA Sports video game cover release hype video since the two “GOATS” competed in Super Bowl LV.
“Even former cover athlete Peyton Hillis didn’t see this coming,” EA Sports Tweeted with its video. Hillis, a fullback, was the Madden 12 cover athlete after a big 2010 season with the Cleveland Browns. The Madden 22 video features two goats as Brady is considered the “greatest of all time”and Mahomes as the next one.
EA Sports will release its Madden cover on Thursday, and the video game itself will likely be released in August as it typically is each year. Brady made his first and only Madden cover appearance in 2017 for Madden 18. Mahomes landed on the cover in 2019 for Madden 19. Last season’s Madden featured Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson.
The hype of Brady-Mahomes built up in the weeks leading up to Super Bowl LV as the Tampa Bay Buccaneers took on the Kansas City Chiefs. Brady threw for 201 yards and three touchdowns as the Bucs beat the Chiefs 31-9. Tampa’s defense didn’t let Mahomes look like Mahomes that night, thwarting the epic two GOATS storyline for that night.
