Madden 22 Backyard Ballers Predictions

There are a few players that we think could really put Backyard Ballers above the recent sets and programs released by Madden 22. Mainly, players that are already retired, including our personal favorite, Brett Favre.

Having a few former players mixed in with current superstars would help players get into the game, especially since it just became free on EA Play.
