EA Sports has been rolling out ratings for Madden NFL 23 position-by-position this week, with running backs revealed on Wednesday.
For the Denver Broncos, Melvin Gordon (83 overall) is the team’s top option in the backfield, followed by Javonte Williams (82 OVR), Mike Boone (67 OVR) and Damarea Crockett (59 OVR).
Madden did not include undrafted rookie Tyreik McAllister in the game’s initial roster. Andrew Beck, the team’s fullback/tight end, isn’t in the game, either.
Gordon has a slightly better overall rating than Williams, but the second-year running back has better acceleration (91 vs. 88) and strength (80 vs. 74) ratings than the veteran. Gordon has better agility (89 vs. 85) and more awareness (83 vs. 79) than Williams in the video game.
EA Sports also released the ratings for kickers Wednesday. Denver’s Brandon McManus is 78 overall, with 96 kick power and 79 kick accuracy.
Up next are cornerback and defensive line ratings released on Thursday, followed by quarterbacks and full team ratings on Friday.
