I've been thinking about this pretty frequently lately, as I'm playing my Switch in handheld mode quite a bit now. I think, if done properly, Madden could be a very good addition to the Switch. Problem is, based on EA's track record, I don't believe they'd make anything worthy of buying for the Switch. Their attitude seems to be "We're not going to make Madden for Nintendo platforms because that's not our demographic and no one buys it," when in reality, they don't make compelling versions for Nintendo consoles.

This game would take a pretty big hit in graphics, but if they made a really deep single player franchise mode specifically for it, or an interesting career mode, I think it would sell really well. The Switch is already selling well, and I think it will continue to do so, especially this holiday season. If people had the ability to start playing a franchise game, put the Switch in sleep mode, bring it with them, and basically play the game throughout the day... or be able to bring their Switch with them to make roster adjustments or do off-season stuff while they're on work breaks or running errands with their spouse, it could really be compelling.

I just don't think EA would go to that length, and perhaps rightfully so, as cost vs profit could not be in their favor. A port of these games isn't going to be compelling enough for people to buy the game on Switch, and even if they did make Madden for Switch, it won't be out before the Switch gets flooded with games.
