So I was just playing against Tampa and when Freeman came out the field Gus says, "Josh Freeman the 4th year man out of Kansas St......"

Hmm Freeman is only on his 3rd year.

I thought it was kind of funny how Brandon Flowers had his named mentioned when he was highlighted as a defensive player but during gameplay he is Number 24.

Just had to smirk at that, doesnt really bother me though since I quickly just listen to music or local sports talk radio when I play sports games.

Same thing happens with Suh they talk about him in the defensive lineup for Detroit but then they call him number 90 in gameplay.

I still think it's an audio bug.

I agree, I think its a roster database file bug. Where the roster database file is not referencing the right audio files for the players. Or the reference is left blank making it just use the number even though the players name is in the audio file database.

That's exactly what I think is happening.

I was playing a game with the Raiders last night and one of my players was called by his name and in the next sentence they mentioned him again and used his number.
