The cover of “Madden 22” will feature Tom Brady and Patrick Mahomes.
The official Twitter account for the popular video game announced Thursday that the star quarterbacks for the Buccaneers and Chiefs will split the cover. (RELATED: David Hookstead Is The True King In The North When It Comes To College Football)

While I don’t really play video games, “Madden” is one of the few games in existence that moves the needle in a major way every year.
Putting Mahomes and Brady on the cover together is a pretty great testament to the marketing power both have.

It also feels like it really signals that Mahomes is the heir apparent to the throne in the NFL. Brady has seven Super Bowls, and the Kansas City Chiefs star is probably the most gifted play in the entire league.

With Brady and Mahomes both on the cover of “Madden 22,” I have no doubt at all that it’s going to sell a ton of copies.
It’s going to be flying off of the shelves!
