Madden 15 brings 53 man rosters

Gamers rejoice, Madden fans rejoice, football fans rejoice, the time has come.  Madden 15 released just last week, however the success for the title in the early going has been impressive.  As the regular season of the NFL kicks off tonight with Thursday Night Football, the folks at EA Sports are looking to bring Madden 15 fans some excitement.

The official 53 man rosters and a full overhaul are ready for Madden 15 gamers.

Donny Moore, the Madden ratings czar himself, has been hard at work cranking out the newest batch of Madden rosters.  Just this morning, on his Twitter account, he posted an update, or more properly, the update Madden 15 fans have been waiting for.

In announcing that he is done with the opening day roster update, the ball is now in EA Sports’ court.  The expectation would be that the new rosters would go quickly through the approvals process on both the Xbox and PlayStation consoles, while prompting users to download them later today.

Moore mentions a significant amount of work.  Changes to over 1,000 players as well as outfitting every team with their final 53 man roster as well as depth charts and practice squad members.

As a fan ready to get my franchise started, this is music to my ears.  I have been waiting to use some of the preseason and camp studs in my Minnesota Vikings franchise, and now those exact guys are ready to hit the gridiron.

Check out your favorite team on Madden 15 and let us know how you think Donny did.
