On Monday, EA Sports released their ratings for every player in their upcoming Madden video game. Some players are not a fan of their ratings with Indianapolis Colts' Eric Ebron being one of them.
The Colts tight end took to Twitter in a long series of tweets to voice his displeasure of his rating in Madden 20. Here is a couple of the tweets that Ebron sent on Monday.
I see a ratings adjuster on the sideline it’s on site‼️ hell u have a 86 with 15 TDS. Disrespect the Maniac and the best slot corner (23) in the game!

Before the 2018 season, Ebron decided to depart from the Detroit Lions and join the Colts. Ebron was taken 10th overall in the 2014 NFL Draft by the Lions. Even ahead of Odell Beckham Jr.
In Detroit, Ebron struggled to consistently make his mark in the offense and was dropping passes left and right. Throughout his four seasons with the Lions, Ebron had an average of just 47 receptions, 518 yards, and nearly three touchdowns per season.
Those numbers weren't enough to justify the tight end being drafted in the first round and people in Detroit were growing weary of him finding his footing in the offense. As a result, the Lions decided to not bring him back in 2018.
Then, the Colts took a chance on the tight end and Ebron had an outstanding season in 2018. In 2018, Ebron was able to haul in 66 receptions for 750 yards and 13 touchdowns through the air. The Colts tight end also added a score on the ground as well.
Nonetheless, Ebron was handed an 86-overall rating in Madden and is tied for the tenth-best tight end in the game. Somehow, Ebron is tied with Hunter Henry of the Los Angeles Chargers who didn't even play in a game in 2018. Therefore, Ebron has a legitimate reason to be upset with his current Madden rating.
