Aaron Hernandez Pulled From Madden 25 And NCAA 14

By Alex Osborn

New England Patriots tight end Aaron Hernandez has been pulled from both Madden NFL 25 and NCAA Football 14 after being charged with murder.

EA Sports released the following statement, explaining its decision:

We have made a decision to remove Aaron Hernandez from Madden NFL 25 and NCAA Football 14. Because NCAA Football 14 was finalized prior to our decision, Hernandez’ image still appears in the Nike Skills Trainer.

However, he is not in the game, and anyone who unlocks that particular Nike Skills Trainer reward will receive an Alex Smith Ultimate Team player item instead. The image of Hernandez will be removed via a Title Update in the near future.

So there you have it. No more digital Aaron Hernandez in EA Sports titles.
