Everyone has been raving about EA Sports' College Football 25 over the last few weeks, and now it's time for players to start getting excited about Madden NFL 25.
It's already been confirmed weeks ago at San Francisco 49ers running back Christian McCaffrey will be featured as the cover athlete for this year's edition of the game and on Monday we finally started getting some player ratings released to the public.
At the wide receiver position, Miami Dolphins star Tyreek Hill was given a 99 overall, the highest mark at the position. However, based on the Top-15 ratings at the position, it's the Chicago Bears who will have the highest rated WR duo in the game.
Newly acquired star Keenan Allen will have the highest overall at the position for the Bears with a 90 overall rating (12th highest in the league). Right behind him is DJ Moore with a 89 overall rating. No other team in the league has two wide receivers in the Top-15 in terms of overall rating.

As for the rest of the Bears wide receiver room in Madden NFL 25, first-round rookie Rome Odunze comes in at 76 overall, second-year Tyler Scott listed at 72 overall and Velus Jones Jr. will have a 69 overall rating (although his speed rating will be key).
Everyone knows that wide receivers are the biggest weapons to target in Madden and by using the Bears trio of Allen, Moore, and Odunze, players will be able to attack their opponents all over the field within the Bears offense.
