Dez Bryant called his “Madden NFL 17” rating an “insult” earlier this week. The Dallas Cowboys receiver dropped from a 96 last year to a 90 after an injury-plagued 2015 season.
“I play Madden, I f—– love Madden,” he said. “They would do me like that? Oh my God. That is an insult, like why would you do that to me? How much I love y’all. Like what? Not John Madden, because I love him. It’s the developers.”
EA Sports had a funny response to Bryant comments.

Bryant said his rating is going to “shoot up real quick” this season. The Cowboys would love to see that after Bryant finished with 31 receptions, 401 yards and three touchdowns in nine games last season.
