Giants WR Odell Beckham Jr. Gets Madden 16 Cover; Brown Ends as Finalist

Philadelphia Eagles v New York Giants

It was announced a few days back that Steelers WR Antonio Brown was eliminated in the running for the ‘Madden 16’ game cover for the always popular video game.

For most Steelers fans, with the famous ‘Madden Curse’ that was good news.

Last night the announcement was made that New York Giants young superstar WR Odell Beckham Jr. will be the cover boy this year for the video game – beating out loud mouth Patriots TE Rob Gronkowski for cover honors.

EA has released a first look video of Madden NFL 16 with all playmakers featured in the Cover Vote (Odell Beckham, Patrick Peterson and Steelers WR Antonio Brown).

Here’s a portion of the EA Sports Press Release about the game:

Beckham is one of the NFL’s most explosive playmakers, highlighting an exceptional rookie season with an electrifying one-handed catch against the Dallas Cowboys in primetime. In his rookie season, Beckham broke out with over 1,300 yards and 12 touchdowns, despite playing in only 12 games.

“Odell Beckham Jr. is a true playmaker and a perfect fit for this year’s game,” said Randy Chase, Senior Director of Marketing for EA SPORTS. “He’s an unstoppable force out on the field, and the Madden NFL 16 cover is further vindication that the fans believe he’s a player to watch in the coming years.”
