Read the full press release below.
Tonight at the NFL Draft, Electronic Arts Inc. and ESPN officially announced the details of the Madden NFL 15 Cover Vote. This yearโs competition sees 16 of the brightest young stars in the game squaring off in a bracket to determine who will adorn the cover. Fans can now vote once per day at ESPN.com/maddenvote, and discuss and debate on social platforms such as @ESPNNFL and the NFL on ESPN Facebook page with the hashtag #MaddenCover. Every Thursday, the results of each round of voting will be announced during NFL Live at 4 p.m. ET on ESPN accompanied by expert analysis and conversation. Players in the running will also make special appearances on ESPN programming and platforms throughout the vote, campaigning for their right to be on the cover of Madden NFL 15. The two finalists will appear and the overall winner will be announced live from LA LIVE Plaza in a special segment during the 6 p.m. hour of SportsCenter on Friday, June 6.
Hereโs the full breakdown of first-round matchups, as well as each playerโs seeding in this yearโs bracket:

โThe Madden NFL Cover Vote is always a special time of year,โ said EA Senior Director of North American Marketing Randy Chase. โIโm curious to see if the 12th Man can propel Richard Sherman to the cover, or if the 49ers fans get their revenge and knock him out of the competition. No matter what, there are going to be some great matchups and intense rivalries.โ
โEvery year, ESPN and EA SPORTS continue to go bigger with the Madden NFL Cover Vote, and thereโs no better way to kick off the vote for Madden NFL 15 than having last yearโs winner and NFL legend Barry Sanders announcing it on stage at the NFL Draft,โ said Raphael Poplock, vice president of games and partnerships for ESPN. โWe are building on our momentum over the last three Madden NFL Cover Votes to deliver an engaging experience that puts the cover in the hands of the fans, which have resulted in some of ESPNโs most successful social activations to date.โ
Madden NFL 15 delivers everything fans need to own their rivals on both sides of the field, including the most immersive defensive gameplay control in franchise history. Like the Super Bowl XLVIII champion Seattle Seahawks, you can win championships and bask in the glory of success by building a great defense fit to challenge the best offenses in the game. Fans will also experience an entirely new broadcast presentation that delivers Madden NFL game day like never before with dramatic all-new camera angles, as well as dynamic pre-game and halftime features. Itโs not just football, itโs Madden Season.
Madden NFL 15 is developed in Orlando, Florida by EA Tiburon and will be available on August 26 in North America and on August 29 in the EU for Xbox One, the all-in-one entertainment system from Microsoft, the PlayStationยฎ4 computer entertainment system, Xbox 360ยฎ video game and entertainment system and the PlayStationยฎ3 entertainment system.
