Accused murderer Aaron Hernandez removed from NCAA 14 and Madden 25
"We have made a decision to remove Aaron Hernandez from Madden NFL 25 and NCAA Football 14. Because NCAA Football 14 was finalized prior to our decision, Hernandez' image still appears in the Nike Skills Trainer. However, he is not in the game, and anyone who unlocks that particular Nike Skills Trainer reward will receive an Alex Smith Ultimate Team player item instead. The image of Hernandez will be removed via a Title Update in the near future."
NCAA 14's Ultimate Team mode, the college football series' version of EA Sports' card-collecting mode seen in many of its games, features thousands of unlockable, real-life athletes. The athletes, many being current NFL players, represent the colleges they attended. In Hernandez's case, his likeness in NCAA 14 was tied to the Florida Gators. He was released by the Patriots on the day he was arraigned, so were he in Madden 25, he would have been a free agent.

RaheemSterling_31 Why would he do this?
Because he had a problem and instead of working it out or just leaving it alone, he solved it a different way.

-Tam has he been proven guilty yet
Apparently not, which is why this seems a little out of line.

lelWart Good choices right there.
But I don't think he was PROVEN guilty yet though
even if he is accused he should still be taken off the game/team until the full investigation has proven that he is not guilty

ITzZCraigxXRATFThird_Eye Wow, never thought it'd get to EA nitpicking the people included in their games. However, I do believe that this is the right move. Hernandez did murder someone, and it was over something stupid like an argument. He tossed it all out.
i don't understand why he would kill someone??
I don't understand why anyone would kill anyone.
i really want to know what his motive was
