With the recent announcement that San Francisco 49ers inside linebacker NaVorro Bowman is the second highest ranked inside linebacker in Madden 2016 (behind Luke Keuchly), every 49ers fan should take comfort in the fact that, even without Patrick Willis or Chris Borland, you’ll still be able to have a beast to play with on defense.
Bowman has long been considered a close second to Patrick Willis for the best inside ‘backer on the 49ers and, arguably, the best. As he is still returning from that brutal knee injury against the Seahawks in the 2013-14 NFC Championship Game, it makes complete sense that Keuchly, a fantastic linebacker in his own right, takes the top spot.
