Madden NFL 2021 Player Ratings - 2020 NFL Season
2020 NFL Season / Madden NFL 21
Madden NFL 2021 shipped in summer 2020 for the 2020 NFL season. Launch ratings are set before the season is played, so they reflect the previous year’s performance - a player’s breakout shows up in the next year’s game.
Madden NFL 21 released August 28, 2020 with reigning MVP Lamar Jackson on the cover. EA's 99 club: Aaron Donald, Christian McCaffrey, Michael Thomas, Patrick Mahomes, and cornerback Stephon Gilmore.
Tampa Bay won Super Bowl LV at home, 31-9 over Kansas City, Tom Brady taking game MVP in his first season as a Buccaneer. Aaron Rodgers won regular-season MVP and threw 48 touchdowns. Derrick Henry ran for 2,027 yards and took Offensive Player of the Year, Aaron Donald repeated as Defensive Player of the Year, and Justin Herbert and Chase Young won the rookie awards.
Two of EA's five 99s barely played: Christian McCaffrey was limited to three games and Michael Thomas to seven, both by injury. Stefon Diggs went the other direction, leading the NFL with 1,535 receiving yards in his first season after the trade to Buffalo.
