Final roster update released for Madden NFL 15

With the 2014-15 NFL season officially in the books, and the New England Patriots crowned world champions, it's time to move on from football. But not before we get one final roster update for Madden NFL 15.

"This week's season-ending roster update includes ratings updates from Super Bowl XLIX, depth charts & injuries updated for all 32 teams, and some other ratings adjustments based on the 2014 end-of-season statistics," EA said.

The most notable update is to Super Bowl MVP Tom Brady who is officially part of the Madden 15 99 overall club. Despite his two interceptions, Tom Brady's four touchdown passes and stellar fourth quarter performance was enough to earn  him the one point needed to increase his overall to 99. He saw improvements in TAS (+1), TAM (+1), TAD (+2), PAC (+2) and TOR (+1).

Personally, I think MVP honors should've gone to Malcom Butler, who made the game-winning interception; without him, would anyone be talking about Brady as potentially the best quarterback ever? Whatever, Butler was instead rewarded for his efforts with a seven-point overall increase. The undrafted rookie cornerback finishes the year with a 77 overall, including upgrades in ACC (+2), STR (+3), AGI (+2), AWR (+10), CTH (+10), TAK (+1), JMP (+3), TGH (+5), PRC (+10), MCV (+4), ZCV (+3) and PRS (+6).

Other notable improvements were made to:

• Chris Matthews – WR – SEA (+8 to 76 OVR)
• Julian Edelman – WR – NE (+2 to 91 OVR)
• Darrelle Revis – CB – NE (+1 to 98 OVR)
