The full ratings for EA Sports\u2019<\/em> \u201cMadden 26\u201d video game have been released. Let\u2019s take a look at how the Kansas City Chiefs stack up.<\/p>\n Kansas City\u2019s superstar is ranked fourth behind the Buffalo Bills\u2019 Josh Allen (99 overall), the Baltimore Ravens\u2019 Lamar Jackson (99 overall) and the Cincinnati Bengals Joe Burrow (97 overall). Mahomes enters the 2025 season with the lowest opening rating he has received since Madden 20. I am truly shocked that a player who led their team to a Super Bowl wasn\u2019t either a 97 or 98. It is laughable that Burrow is ahead of Mahomes.<\/p>\n The superstar defensive tackle enters this year\u2019s game tied with the New York Giants\u2019 Dexter Lawrence II as the highest-rated players at their position. A dominant force both on the field and in Madden, Jones should start with an X-Factor ability. His 99 awareness rating sets him apart, making him the best at his position.<\/p>\n The former Oklahoma Sooner enters the season as the best center in \u201cMadden 26,\u201d holding an overall rating five points higher than second-ranked Erik McCoy of the New Orleans Saints. His attributes across the board outshine every other player at the position, firmly establishing him as the top center in the game.<\/p>\n The Chiefs\u2019 top cornerback enters \u201cMadden 26\u201d tied with the Pittsburgh Steelers\u2019 Jalen Ramsey and the New York Jets\u2019 Sauce Gardner for the third-best rating at the position. McDuffie holds the edge in agility with a 94, matches Gardner in change of direction at 91, and in awareness, trails Ramsey by just one point at 95. He\u2019s deserving of an X-Factor ability to start the season and should be a fun lockdown corner to use in Franchise Mode.<\/p>\n Kelce enters Madden 26 as the second-highest rated tight end, trailing only George Kittle of the San Francisco 49ers. Kelce stands out as the most durable at his position with a 97 injury rating, though he\u2019s also the slowest among the top 10 tight ends, with an 82 speed rating. While Madden didn\u2019t release catch ratings this year, it\u2019s safe to assume Kelce\u2019s would land in the mid to upper 90s.<\/p>\n Ranked as the fourth-highest right guard in the game, Smith tied with the Denver Broncos\u2019 Quinn Meinerz for the highest strength rating at 95. He also holds the second-highest agility rating among right guards at 69. Simply put, Smith is a beast on the offensive line.<\/p>\n For the first time in his young career, Xavier Worthy is the fastest wide receiver in Madden, earning a 99 speed rating. He edges out both Jameson Williams and former Kansas City star Tyreek Hill, who each hold a 98.<\/p>\n In this year\u2019s edition, EA Sports<\/em> did a great job rating the Chiefs. With the variety of abilities across the roster, they remain the team to beat in this video game.<\/p>\n What do you think of how Madden rated the Chiefs?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Patrick Mahomes and Chris Jones top the list of Kansas City players in this season\u2019s edition of the popular \u2018Madden 26\u2019 video game.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":6,"featured_media":85376,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[5],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-85375","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-nfl"],"yoast_head":"\n
