Seattle's Richard Sherman Named Madden 15 Cover Athlete
Seattle Seahawk's cornerback Richard Sherman has more to talk smack about. The vocal athlete was just named Madden 15's cover athlete, so prepare to see his fierce face on game shelves later this summer.
Madden fans were able to vote for their favorite NFL star to be the face for Madden this year at ESPN, and the finals came down to Sherman versus the Carolina Panthers quarterback Cam Newton. But after 9,600,000 votes throughout campaign, the results have been tallied. Spoilers! Sherman won.
Madden NFL 15 will release on August 15.

Our Take
I don't have a lot of opinions about football other than that the Broncos are the best team. But someone's got to be on the cover of Madden, and the Seahawks had a good year. That much I know. So this makes sense.
I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
Thank you.
