Calvin Johnson Named Madden NFL 13 Cover Athlete
Star wide receiver Calvin Johnson beat out quarterback Cam Newton as the cover athlete for Madden NFL 13.
Throughout the past several weeks, fans got to vote on who they wanted to grace the game's cover. The campaign drew 19.6 million total votes, a 54 percent increase from last year.
“The Madden NFL 13 Cover Vote has been bigger and better than ever thanks to all of our fans voting in record-setting fashion to honor Calvin Johnson, Jr. and we are thrilled to have him be the next face of the Madden NFL franchise,” said Anthony Stevenson, Madden NFL 13 director of marketing. “
Madden 13 is out on August 28.
