Adam Schefter was one of the many personalities listed in the fake Twitter feed in Madden NFL 13. Could he have a bigger role in Madden NFL 25? Check out the recent conversation below. We should find out what it is exactly, on May 20th, which is when EA Sports will release their Connected Franchise playbook.

May 20th? @MYsportsPhotog: @jpdavis1982 good guess

Wow. I'm thinking he'll be a guy that brings things up to date with certain teams in connected franchise. Most of the time I see him on NFL network he is doing something similar. Great sports analyst though.

The twitter thing? Or will he appear virtually. Sounds like we'll be hearing some presentation news then.

I may be wrong but I don't think if it was just the Twitter thing they would bring him down there. I'm thinking of something more along the lines of this.

I can't find good footage of this on YT, but basically Schefter would come on screen and give NFL news updates throughout your season. I hope this is what they will have in Madden 25, but an improved version of it.

That looks better than any Madden's free agency presentation to date. Pretty sad.

To be fair, the entirety of that game was the front-end interface (with Madden 08 underneath), so they had no choice but to make it look as good as possible, haha.

That said, HC09 is a great game and Josh Looman's baby, so at least we have an idea as to from where new and forthcoming gameplay ideas for Connected Franchise mode might draw inspiration.
