Josh Allen Revealed As Madden 2024 Cover Player - Page 4

Josh Allen, QB of the Buffalo Bills has been officially revealed as the cover player of Madden 2024. Allen is becoming the first Buffalo Bills player to ever be the game’s featured athlete. The honor follows Hall of Fame coach John Madden, who was honored on last year’s Madden 2023 cover. Allen is the fifth QB to appear on the cover in the last six years, after Lamar Jackson, Patrick Mahomes and Tom Brady, who appeared twice (once alongside Mahomes). Making the cover of a video game would be high on anyones list but via SummerSports only 8 of the last 19 quarterbacks to make the cover have lived up to their pre-season win total. There is also the madden curse.. Notable players that got hurt the year they were on the Madden cover:

• 2019: Steelers WR Antonio Brown
