And The Madden 16 Cover Athlete Is...

By Mark Delaney,

Some call him ODB, some call him OBJ, EA Sports now calls him cover star. New York Giants rookie wideout Odell Beckham Jr, after having one of the most dominant rookie seasons of all-time, will be gracing the box art for this August's Madden NFL 16. Beckham beat our Rob Gronkowski in the finals today live on SportsCenter after a fan vote, which also included Antonio Brown and Patrick Peterson, began last week. His athleticism has been likened to Michael Jordan and lead to one of the prettiest catches the sport has ever seen that, along with his weekly dominance, propelled him to the height of sports gaming stardom.

Madden NFL 16 comes out this August.
