New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady faces his toughest test this season, which makes a 28-3 Super Bowl deficit look like a picnic.
We’re not talking about Brady turning 40 years old on Aug. 3. Even worse: He gets to fight against the “Madden” curse this year.
EA Sports announced Friday that Brady is the cover subject for its “Madden NFL 18” video game (which will have a standard edition and, in a nod to Brady, a “G.O.A.T Edition” with extra features).
Being on the cover of “Madden” should be an nice compliment, but it has become a running joke because of the maladies that have come upon the cover subjects through the years.
