The latest Madden 25 Roster Update has arrived ahead of the NFL Conference Championships this weekend, adjusting several player ratings. This week, the ratings mostly focus on teams that played in the Divisional Round of the NFL Playoffs. Typically, these updates don’t actually make any gameplay changes. Instead, they account for injuries, player ratings, FA signings, roster cuts, and more. Without further ado, let’s dive right in.
Overall, the most notable player ratings in this new Madden 25 Roster Update include:

The Lions’ season may be over, but what a season it’s been for Gibbs. Despite splitting touches between David Montgomery for most of the season, Gibbs ended the year with over 1,900 yards from scrimmage along with 20 total touchdowns. In the team’s divisional loss to the Commanders, the sophomore HB earned 175 yards and two touchdowns in 20 touches. We look forward to seeing what he can do in Year 3.

Overall, Carter earned two sacks on the day, despite getting double-teamed almost every snap. However, he has yet to lift Jayden Daniels with one arm again in epic fashion. Fortunately for him, the Eagles host the Commanders this weekend.

Jared Verse’s DROY-quality campaign didn’t end with a Super Bowl Ring, but he did pick up two sacks against the Eagles in his final game of the year. The Rams’ defensive line was an absolute unit, especially in the postseason. As a team, they earned 16 sacks in two games (nine against MIN, seven against PHI). We think Verse will produce even greater numbers in 2025.

Lastly, Jayden Daniels receives a boost, increasing his OVR to 85. The thing that sets Daniels apart from other rookie QBs is how comfortable he looks. He plays with the kind of poise and confidence you see from someone who’s been in the league for some time. Furthermore, Washington has a great roster and coaching staff too, all of which has been detrimental to...
