I'll go a step further and pie-in-the-sky wishlist a bonafide implementation of NFL RedZone in online franchise.

The game already tracks which users in a connected franchise are online, presumably there is some amount of communication with the server during games (even user vs CPU games) for telemetry / play calling data / things of that nature.

There likely exists a technical path where a digital Scott Hanson could break into your online league games and let you know what is going on in the games of other members of your league in real time.

Honestly, even just generic narration over Twitch integration in the Connected Franchise menu UI which would segue into you watch your league members' game broadcasts without having to leave Madden would be a fun thing to have. That feels less likely because of third-party integrations, though.

At the very least, I wouldn't think they'd bring him in for play by play/color duties. Which definitely makes you think about what they WILL use his talent for.

Very interesting to think about.

I'll just assume he's replacing Johnathan Coachman. Then if it ends up being more I can be pleasantly surprised.

I could also see him having a similar role as Kevin Connors in CFB25. Where he'll give in game updates and half-time report. I really didn't care for how it was implemented in CFB25. Connors sounded very robotic. I rather them have it like the NCAA 14 game updates.

He's either replacing Coachman or Tre Mosley, who does the pre-game announcer lines. Or possibly both.

Either way, I doubt this is anything too major.
