With August 16 getting closer every day, it’s nice to see the game getting its official cover. Christian McCaffrey is the reigning NFL Offensive Player of the Year, and it made a lot of sense to feature him in this legendary franchise.

Seeing one of the most popular players of NFL 24 becoming the cover athlete of Madden NFL 25 is fantastic. With so many players picking him, it was a matter of time for McCaffrey to get the spotlight in this new entry. During the press release, the superstar mentioned the following:
“To be on the cover of Madden NFL is a career achievement and an honor I share with all of my teammates, coaches and 49er Faithful who have helped make it possible.”
