Madden 22 hilariously whiffs on likeness of Panthers G Deonte Brown

Carolina Panthers guard Deonte Brown is a pretty distinct looking man. How can you not be when you’re a 6-foot-4, 350-pound brick shi . . . (we’ll let David Tepper finish that word)-house?

Nonetheless, video game developer EA Sports still had a rough go at trying to get Brown’s likeness down in Madden NFL 22.

Um . . . what? Excuse me? What . . . what is that? Who is that?

(Hat tip to Panthers fan @RacinJasun on Twitter for the shot, by the way.)

Listen, EA. We know everyone is still pretty excited over the return of CM Punk to professional wrestling this past week. But there’s no need to force him into your video game at the expense of an innocent rookie.

This isn’t the first time the platform has done a Panther dirty either. They did it to tight end Greg Olsen two years ago. Twice!

Apparently, they thought Greg was either an extra in an early 2000s teen movie or Sean Spicer.

Whatever the case may be, get it together, people.
