Watch: Travis Hunter Finalizes Carolina Panthers Roster in Madden 25 Gameplay

EA Sports treated football fans well, allowing them to play their favorite player and experience the thrill of the game. It was released in 1988 as John Madden Football. Derived from former football coach John Madden, it’s the only officially licensed NFL video game series since 2004.

Madden NFL underwent its latest name change in August 2023 as Madden NFL 24 was launched. However, one of the most exciting recently released aspects is the first 10-Year Madden Realistic Rebuild. And even more exciting news for the Buffs fans is that Travis Hunter will be a valuable weapon in the 2025 lineup.

Travis Hunter set to enter the Panthers 2025 Madden NFL lineup

In a recent YouTube upload on C4, the Colorado Buffs two-way star gets a spotlight in Madden 25. Travis Hunter is among the top players in the first 10-year Madden Realistic Rebuild who’ll be added as a weapon in the Carolina Panthers roster, which is currently among the worst in Madden NFL. According to the YouTuber, “We’re going to try to go 10 years and turn the worst roster, the hardest Madden 24 rebuild into a Super Bowl champion and into a dynasty.”

The Panthers traded their top draft picks to secure an “undersized QB who, to his credit, had zero supporting class last year.” Even so, with consistent belief in the skills and capabilities of QB Bryce Young despite his sad NFL start, they look to develop him by pairing some of the best WRs. Per the video, their aim is “drafting the most electrifying player in college football and a position change that gave us a man that will forever be known as the superweapon.” The plan for the 2024 NFL Draft is to draft Brian Thomas Jr. while Travis Hunter is a top choice for the 2025 NFL Draft to take the hardest Madden 24 rebuild to transform them into a dynasty. 

The video game hype around Travis Hunter 

Travis Hunter is truly an upcoming NFL player to keep an eye on. After averaging 119 snaps in the 2023 season, Travis Hunter won the Paul Hornung Award, finishing second on the team with 57 catches for 721 yards and five touchdowns. So, it’s no wonder he’s stealing the hype in the Madden NFL 25 lineup. But EA Sports also sees him with a possible rating of 99. 

The EA Sports College Football 25 is due to be released in the summer, and according to former Georgia football QB Aaron Murray, Hunter deserves a 99 rating. He said on Snaps, “I think the only person to me that 100%, 100% this person deserves the ranking of 99: Travis Hunter, Colorado. He’s a freak athlete. The best DB by far… Would be the top DB in the draft this year and he could play both ways. Probably play special teams too. So Travis Hunter is my for sure lock. If there’s going to be a 99 guy it’s going to go to him.” What do you think about him with a 99 rating?
