A gambler who jumped routes for a living

Asante Samuel baited quarterbacks and jumped routes as well as anyone, a ball-hawk who gambled and won often for the Patriots. The Central Florida product led the NFL in interceptions in his best season.

Madden gave him back-to-back 96s in the 2007 and 2008 editions, his New England peak. Two rings, four Pro Bowls and more than fifty career picks later, few produced more takeaways.

How to read these: Each row is the player’s rating in that year’s Madden, listed by the NFL season it covers (Madden NFL 2001 = the 2000 season). Madden sets its ratings before the season is played, so they reflect the previous season’s performance - a player’s breakout year tends to show up as a jump in the following year’s game.
Note: Some Madden releases tracked fewer attributes than others. Cells shown as - were not published by EA that year.
