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.

I see where they're going with this, but imho it's kind of a waste of time just to remove someone from a game.

M60Alone I just don't get it, you're a professional sportsman, why murder someone?
I know. People are so stupid. He just ruined his career
Exactly, he had so much and threw it all away.

CHP that sucks for him.
It does, he threw his whole career down the drain because of what happened. I can also completely understand why he was removed from the games, I'm sure if he had any other sponsorships, they will be dropping him as well.

That's true, he did it...
