Madden 11 Roster Update #18 Details

by
Posted January 13th, 2011 at 1:45 pm

After a few weeks off there is a new Madden 11 roster update set for release tomorrow. This update takes a wider look at developments of the whole year instead of just the end of the season and the playoffs. That also means some players are being reinserted onto rosters that had previously been removed due to injuries, though some other players on the IR won’t return to active placement until the final update that comes following the Super Bowl. There are also plenty of depth chart changes and a few equipment changes thrown in.

Highlights include Marshawn Lynch getting his stiff arm rating boosted to 99, Darrelle Revis moving back up to the coveted 99 rating after shutting down Reggie Wayne, Aaron Rodgers jumping up to a 96, and Drew Brees falling a point to 96 (insert Madden curse comment here). Michael Vick drops three points to 91 which still makes for an 18 point increase from the start of the season, and Pro Bowler Jason Babin gets a deserved surge of eight points to an 87.

Continue on for a look at all the changes for the Divisional Playoff week roster update for Madden 11 and as always leave your thoughts in the comments!
