There’s a curious apparent omission in advance copies of the EA Sports video game Madden NFL 19, one that may pique interest in a high-profile collusion case involving Colin Kaepernick.

In the song Big Bank by YG featuring 2 Chainz, Big Sean and Nicki Minaj, rapper Big Sean sings a verse with the lyrics: “You boys all cap, I'm more Colin Kaepernick.”

In advance copies of Madden NFL 19, however, Kaepernick’s name appears to have been omitted, as first noted by Twitter user @jeanclervil.
