Fournette asks to be removed from Madden over low ratings
Jacksonville Jaguars running back Leonard Fournette is coming off an impressive rookie season, but he still isn't getting the recognition he believes he deserves.
Fournette was upset when he was rated lower than he anticipated for Madden 19, which is scheduled to be released on August 10.

Madden responded to Fournette, asking him to submit feedback on how they ought to improve his rating:

If Fournette tops the 1,000-yard rushing mark again, it's likely the team at Madden will acquiesce to his demands and give his overall rating a boost.
