Barry Sanders has just announced that he has ended his relationship with EA Sports, in what is perhaps the most surprising thing to happen to the Madden franchise in recent memory.
The legendary Lions right back announced on his X profile that he decided to end his long-time partnership with the EA Sports brand and products, which caught the Madden community by surprise.

So let’s find out what this means to Madden and its community.
Say Goodbye to Cyber Barry Sanders
Barry Sanders ending his partnership with EA Sports means he will no longer be featured in future Madden editions or other EA Sports brand products.
This is sad news if you are a huge Sanders or Lions fan as you won’t be able to play with the Pro Football Hall of Famer in Madden 25 or any other upcoming EA Sports football titles.
Sanders recognized that, and in a class act apologized to all of the players and fans who were looking forward to playing with his virtual character and will no longer be able to do so, at least in the foreseeable future.

Il n'est pas le premier joueur ou icône de la NFL à faire cela, et ce ne sera certainement pas le dernier, mais c'est toujours triste de savoir que vous ne pourrez pas jouer avec des légendes du jeu.
Sanders est une légende du jeu et l’un des meilleurs porteurs de ballon de l’histoire du football. Espérons que Cyber Barry Sanders fasse son retour dans un avenir proche, et qui sait, cela pourrait même se produire dans une nouvelle franchise de jeux vidéo de football.
