In this year’s game, fans are buzzing about features such as better graphics, player spotlights and brand new quarterback mechanics.
But Madden season isn’t solely for fans of the NFL.
Chiefs running back De’Anthony Thomas is among those Kansas City Chiefs looking forward to getting his hands on the much sought after game.
"It's a great day,” Thomas said. “Madden gets everybody excited. The last Madden started to get old. Everybody is looking for something new now.”
When asked about whether he preferred to play online or offline, Thomas quickly said online, as he likes being able to get his personal ranking up.
