Already know the face of EA Sports' next college football video game?
Leak on PlayStation Store EA Sports College Football 25 The game, scheduled for release in July, suggests so. In the leaked image, Michigan running back Donovan Edwards is front and center, flanked by Texas quarterback Quinn Ewers and Colorado defensive back Travis Hunter. Alabama quarterback Jalen Milroe, Georgia quarterback Carson Beck and Ohio State running back Quinshon Judkins are also some of the players represented.
The potential cover shot leak was leaked on the PlayStation Store on Friday morning and spread on X (formerly Twitter) and other social media.
How much are players paid to appear on EA Sports College Football 25?
The new college football video game will be the first to be released since 2013, when the series was canceled due to a lawsuit that accused the game of not paying athletes for their image rights. All 134 teams will be featured in the game, and each player will receive $600 and a copy of the game (worth $70) if they choose to be featured in the game.
Edwards, who rushed 119 times for 497 yards and five touchdowns in Michigan's national championship season, is expected to have an even bigger role this season. Ewers, like Milroe of the Crimson Tide, led the Longhorns to the College Football Playoff.
Judkins was traded to the Buckeyes from Ole Miss this offseason. Hunter continues to be one of the biggest names in college football, playing under legendary Deion Sanders at the University of Colorado.
Who was the last player to appear on the cover of NCAA Football?
The University of Michigan has found a bit of continuity after college football's video game hiatus.
Former Wolverine quarterback Denard Robinson was the last player to appear on the cover of NCAA Football 14. As a testament to the series' legacy, that game is still regularly resold for over $100. Other players who have graced the cover over the years include Charles Woodson, Ricky Williams, Joey Harrington, Carson Palmer, Larry Fitzgerald, Desmond Howard, and Tim Tebow.
