With the release of EA’s Madden 21 steadily approaching, many players’ ratings have already been leaked. Some notable Buffalo Bills players have lower ratings than expected.
Multiple sources have leaked the Madden ratings of several NFL players in preparation for the release of EA’s “Madden21”. The sports gaming heavyweight will release its newest title on August 25. However, just over a month before release, many players have already seen their ratings leaked to the media.
The leaks originated on the popular website Madden School, which has a history of leaking ratings and usually getting them right.
If you scroll down to the Bills’ ratings, you might be surprised to see where the team’s standout players rank. Tre’Davious White, undoubtedly the Buffalo Bills best player and arguably the best cornerback in the NFL, is reported to only have an 89 rating according to the website.
In just his third season, White had an All-Pro year in which he also held the lead league in interceptions (tied with Stephon Gilmore and Anthony Harris). White is not even the highest rated player on the Bills’ roster in the game. That honor goes to Stefon Diggs, who the Bills traded for this offseason, and received a well deserved 92 overall rating.
John Brown also has a surprising low rating, even after a career year with Buffalo. In 2019, Brown led the team in receiving yards (1,060) and tied for the team lead in receiving touchdowns (6). Unfortunately, his efforts did not grab the attention of Madden ratings adjustors, as Brown only has an 82 overall rating in this year’s game.
Many fans may be wondering where quarterback Josh Allen ranks among the leagues quarterbacks in Madden 21. The news doesn’t look great for Allen or Bills fans, as his rating is not even listed on the leaks, leading to the rumor that the signal caller could have a sub-80 rating.
However, there is good news for both Allen and Bills fans in Madden 21. The Bills’ quarterback has the highest throwing power in the game at 99 and just edging out current Super Bowl MVP Patrick Mahomes.
You read that right, Patrick Mahomes isn't No. 1 in throwing power 😳 @EAMaddenNFL #Madden21 pic.twitter.com/iZQhT7io4C

The Buffalo Bills have had more success in the past three seasons than they had previously had in the past decade and a half. If head coach Sean McDermott keeps the team on this path, then the Bills’ Madden ratings should soar.
