EA Sports is announcing that it is celebrating the coming Most Valuable Player pick of the National Football League by introducing four players that will be part of the game with upgraded stats in the Ultimate Team mode of Madden NFL 15.

Tom Brady, Peyton Manning, DeMarco Murray, and Aaron Rodgers are the nominations that seem to be leading the race for the award at the moment, but the studio believes that its own picks have an outside chance of getting it.

The list is opened by Andrew Luck, who is the quarterback for the Indianapolis Colts.

EA Sports states on the official site that “Indianapolis leads the league in total offense, with 432.4 yards per game. On a team  not filled with superstars, Andrew Luck does most of the heavy lifting. He leads the league with 4,305 passing yards, and his 98.8 QB Rating is tied for seventh-best.”

His new Ultimate Team version has 94 Throw Power and 95 Throw Accuracy and the Auction House says he is worth about 86,000 Coins.

Jamaal Charles, from the Kansas City Chiefs, is also part of the MVP race because he is currently tied to the league lead in terms of rushing touchdowns, which means that he has upgraded speed, elusiveness, and juke moves.

Three more candidates are part of Madden NFL 15 Ultimate Team

One of them is Marshawn Lynch from the Seattle Seahawks, who has contributed a lot to the team’s territorial gains, resulting in 98 Stiff Arm and 96 Trucking in the EA Sports-made sim.

Rob Gronkowski from the New England Patriots, playing tight end, also has a new version.

The studio explains, “Gronk has returned to his dominant form after battling injuries the last couple of seasons. Not surprisingly, the Patriots have gone to another level with seven straight wins. Gronk leads all tight ends with 16 catches for 20 or more yards, and he’s in second place with 10 touchdown catches.”

The Ultimate Team version of the player features 96 Catch In Traffic, 94 Catching, and 92 Release.

J.J. Watt from the Houston Texans is the final featured player because of his defensive end capabilities, with 97 Power Moves and Block Shedding and 95 Tackle.

Madden NFL 15 is getting continued support from EA Sports, which means that fans can expect to see a new title update coming in the near future, and new packages for the Ultimate Team mode are also introduced on a weekly basis.
