The new Madden 23 ratings update was revealed today and we're going to take a look at some of the biggest movers.
Patrick Mahomes is working his way back to the 99 Club with his updated ratings but a popular quarterback has actually taken a step back.
Let's go over some of these newly updated ratings.
Madden 23 Ratings Update
Each week, EA puts together a Madden 23 ratings update that reflects how the players performed during the weekend.
This time, the update is for Week 4 and several players had their ratings changed. One of the most notable is of course, Patrick Mahomes.
Mahomes is only a few points away from getting back into the 99 Club and after his Week 4 performance (249 yards, 3 touchdowns), we could see him back in the club over the next few months.
He wasn't the only player that received a significant bump during the Madden 23 ratings update, so let's take a look at some others.

Top 10 Madden 23 players going down
Some very popular NFL players have received a reduction to their Madden 23 ratings and one of them was Tom Brady.
Brady was moved from a 97 OVR to a 96 OVR after his Week 4 outing, the strange thing is that Brady's update is slightly confusing.
Brady passed for 385 yards and three touchdowns in Week 4. We understand that he fumbled once but he still finished with an ESPN QB rating of 114.7.
