Madden 23 Ultimate Team Season 1 is in full force but some players are having trouble deciding which cards to pick up.
EA Sports and MUT.GG have now teamed up to provide you with the MUT 23 cards they consider to be the best budget cards.
It's time to build your MUT 23 team and take over the gridiron.
Update - Best Budget MUT Cards
Building a budget Madden 23 Ultimate Team isn't necessarily very hard but it takes knowing the right cards to purchase with your coins.
One of the first cards that EA and MUT.GG said to target is the Tight End Donald Parham Jr., however, this card is quite a bit of coin.
Instead of spending nearly 100K on Parham Jr., we'd target Zach Ertz which goes for a bit less or the Trey McBride card in Madden 23 Ultimate Team.
Here are a few of the other cards EA and MUT.GG mentioned:
- Donald Parham Jr. (TE) - 86 OVR (Chargers) - 90.5K
- Randy Moss (CB) - 86 OVR (Patriots) - Free through challenges
- Caleb Farley (CB) - 82 OVR (Titans) - 19K
- Kyle Dugger (SS) - 82 OVR (Patriots) - 20.5K

Madden 23 Ultimate Team Season 1 Start Date
Before we start going over all of the details of MUT 23, we have to take a look at when Season 1 of Madden 23 Ultimate Team will begin.
The first season of many will begin officially when Early Access kicks in which is August 16, 2022, three days before the official release date of August 19, 2022.
One of the important things to remember is that each season will last 60 days which means Madden 23 Ultimate Team Season 1 will end on September 30, 2022.
This gives you tons of time to earn rewards via Field Pass, which we're going to take a look at now.

How Field Pass works in MUT 23
Field Pass is a new program that was introduced this year and will be vital to progression, especially in Madden 23 Ultimate Team Season 1.
There are three primary types of Field Passes: Season, Competitive, and Ultimate Team program-specific passes.
The Season area of Field Pass in MUT 23 is specific to the season you're in. For example, there are already a few tasks that players can complete in Madden 23 Ultimate Team Season 1:
- Score 25 touchdowns in any mode
- Score 50 touchdowns in any mode
- Score 100 touchdowns in any mode
- Score 250 touchdowns in any mode
- Score 75 points in any mode
Completing these tasks will earn you more rewards which include high OVR player items and a Coach John Madden Item.
MUT Champions in Season 1
Weekend League has been replaced by the MUT Champions which will be another notable feature in Madden 23 Ultimate Team Season 1.
The format is slightly similar but there is one big difference. Instead of just getting rewards on weekends, you'll be able to play MUT Champions throughout the entire week.
To get into this mode you'll need a Champs Entry Token which you can earn by completing Madden 23 Ultimate Team Season 1 challenges.
The even better news is that these tokens don't expire and will land right in your MUT 23 Item Binder so you can use them whenever you want.
New All Madden Program
The latest addition to Madden 23 Ultimate Team Season 1 is the All Madden program, giving you ways to earn some NFL legends.
From Randy Moss to Bruce Matthews, you can get some great cards into your lineup with the latest program.
There are 25 challenges available for you to complete for the OOP Randy Moss or you can exchange 28 82 OVR Elite Players to earn an 89 OVR All-Madden player item in MUT 23.
