Another year, another Madden video game, which can be an extremely exciting time for Texas A&M Football fans. Because we’re nearing the end of the offseason, there’s no clear number for how many players the Texas A&M Football team will have in the NFL next season. That said, they had 27 in 2020, a number that only eight other schools can top.

Among those 27 players, the Aggies have a handful of elite athletes in the National Football League, including arguably one of the best players at his respective positions.

Today, I’m going to be breaking down the highest-rated Texas A&M Football players in the Madden 22 video game.

Top Texas A&M Football Players in Madden 22, Honorable Mentions

OT Jake Matthews, 81 Overall: Jake Matthews was one of the offensive linemen that helped Johnny Manziel reach Heisman status nearly a decade ago. The offensive tackle was among the best in the country, earning two consecutive All-American selections and cementing his name as one to be desired in the NFL Draft, where he’d be taken with the 6th-overall pick.

He has had an extremely solid career with the Atlanta Falcons, where the O-Lineman has earned a Pro Bowl selection in 2018 and a 5-year, $75 million contract in the same year. He was given an 81 rating in Madden 22.

C Erik McCoy, 83 Overall: True Aggie fans will probably make the argument that Erik McCoy shouldn’t be rated higher than Jake Matthews, but it’s a video game. Weird stuff happens.

McCoy has a much different story than Matthews, as the third-year center was selected in the second round to the New Orleans Saints, where he made an immediate impact, earning PFWA All-Rookie team honors.

At just 23 years old, he looks like he’ll be a key part of the Saints’ offensive line moving forward. The former Aggie center was considered good enough to earn an 83 overall rating, which may be part of the benefits of being in a strong Saints offensive system.
