14 DAY TRIAL // With the second week of matches from the real-world National Football League complete, the development team at EA Sports is delivering a new roster update for Madden NFL 16, designed to tweak the ratings of the various players to better reflect the performance of their counterparts.
Johnny Manziel is one of the stars of the period, after delivering two touchdowns.
The team at EA Sports states, "Manziel gets +2 OVR (73), +1 to Throw Accuracy Short (85), +2 to Throw Accuracy Mid (76) and +2 to Throw Accuracy Deep (63). However, Josh McCown has been cleared to play and will start next Sunday. Sorry, Johnny."
Andrew Luck was seen as one of the stars of the coming season earlier in the year, but he has not managed to confirm, and in Madden NFL 16, he now has -2 overall rating with associated drops to his throw accuracy to reflect his inability to deliver passes.
Larry Fitzgerald delivered three touchdowns in his first regular season game with three scores, and that earns him +2 overall, with improvements to speed, catching and catch in traffic to reflect his ability to find the ball.
Marshal Yanda has a +1 to overall, and gamers can get a look at all the tweaks made to players in an official document.
Madden NFL 16 tweaks the core mechanics of the franchise

The Draft is the main addition to Ultimate Team, giving gamers a faster way to play that can deliver some cool rewards to those who can build a competitive lineup.
Madden NFL 16 will continue to deliver updates linked to players in the coming weeks and months, and when Super Bowl time rolls around, the development team at EA Sports will seek to predict the result of the match and to deliver special content for gamers to enjoy.
