The Madden 23 Cover Athlete is set to be revealed in just a matter of minutes!

Madden Day is coming, which means it's time to learn a ton of details about the upcoming game, all starting with the reveal of its cover.

With that, here's all the latest news as we begin our countdown to the Madden 23 Cover reveal, including our predictions for who will earn the spot.

Madden 23 Cover Reveal Time Countdown

EA recently announced that the Madden 23 Cover Athlete will be revealed on June 1, 2022 at 10am EST. We have the official countdown timer for you below so you don't miss the excitement!

The reveal was announced by the official EA Madden NFL Twitter account and the tweet itself includes a teaser that offers a pretty heavy hint for who will grace this year's cover.

Will John Madden be on the cover of Madden 23?

With John Madden's voice in the background and the tweet itself, it's very likely we'll be getting one final John Madden cover with Madden 23.

The question is, could there be some alternate covers? Let's take a look at some players that could potentially also be Madden 23 cover stars.

Other potential Madden 23 covers

As always, there will be multiple editions of Madden 23, though this doesn't mean there will be multiple cover stars across them. Instead, whoever makes the cover will be on the front of all of the game's editions.

While John Madden is certainly the leading Madden 23 cover star candidate, there are still some other options EA may go with on the day.

With that being said, who else could make it onto the cover? Of all the options, the reigning Super Bowl MVP would be the most likely candidate other than John Madden to make the cover this year.

If not Kupp, one of his teammates from the Rams' monumental Super Bowl run would also be a solid choice, or a more unexpected player like Jonathan Taylor.

Now, let's go over what we know about the potential 99 Club in Madden 23 and who could make the list.

Madden 23 99 Club Predictions

After an action-packed year of football, there are plenty of candidates for the Madden 23 99 Club.

With so much about to be revealed on MaddenDay, perhaps we could get a look at the game's top-rated players as well.

Here are the players that we think could make it into the Madden 23 99 Club:

• Patrick Mahomes - QB - Kansas City Chiefs
• Jalen Ramsey - CB - Los Angeles Rams
• Travis Kelce - TE - Kansas City Chiefs
• Aaron Donald - DE - Los Angeles Rams
• Davante Adams - WR - Las Vegas Raiders (joined in 2022)
• Jonathan Taylor - RB - Indiannapolis Colts
• Cooper Kupp - WR - Los Angeles Rams

We'll have to wait and see whether or not we get a glimpse at the new members during the Madden 23 cover athlete reveal. Either way, you won't want to miss the show!
