Tom Brady will obviously go down as one of the greatest players ever to put on an NFL uniform, having won 7 Super Bowls over his storied career.
Ja’Marr Chase, the former LSU receiver who just had an outstanding rookie year for the Cincinnati Bengals, has already appeared in 1 Super Bowl, losing to the Los Angeles Rams.
But, ahead of the 2022 season, Chase felt like he was snubbed by the Madden NFL 23 rankings by not being named a top 10 wide receiver. Social media came to Chase’s defense, but Brady told the young receiver not to sweat it.
After all, Brady pointed out, he wasn’t even included in the Madden game his second year as a pro:

Brady was also miffed by his low “awareness” rankings:
41 awareness was just unnecessarily mean. https://t.co/o7cXnsICTz

We’ll see if Chase gets a ratings boost before the game hits shelves. If not, it’ll just be a way for Chase to stay motivated in 2022 and beyond.
