No Option Routes in this game?

It seems as if they took out the option routes in this year's game. When I mean the option routes, I am referring to the routes where the WR reads the defense (man vs zone) and adjusts his route accordingly. Or in other words, the routes with the dotted line. I loved these routes and thought they were money.

I know blue routes are when they stay in to block for a while and then release. And green ones are motion routes. Other than those two, I don't see where the option routes are.

I see orange routes on every single play. However I do not see on some of them their alternate (the dotted line) route. Am I missing something?

I am browsing through playbooks on SportsGamer and this is where I do not see any option routes at all.

The "orange routes" are just indicators of who the primary reciever is for that play.

That's what I thought. I guess just for some reason they aren't showing up in SportsGamer's playbooks he just put up.
