Ahead of its release in August, “Madden NFL 26” will be dropping overall ratings for players included in the game. On Wednesday, it was the rookies’ turn.
According to the game’s official website, first-round pick and defensive lineman Derrick Harmon is the Pittsburgh Steelers‘ highest-rated rookie with a 77.
Rounding out the top five for the Steelers are running back Kaleb Johnson (75), edge rusher Jack Sawyer (72), kicker Ben Sauls (70), cornerback Donte Kent (68) and defensive lineman Yahya Black (67).
Coming in with the lowest rating among Steelers rookies is quarterback Will Howard, who received a 64 overall mark.
Somehow, Howard has a lower rating than the Steelers’ rookie kicker, who went undrafted and won’t even make the roster thanks to Chris Boswell.
Here’s the full list of rookie ratings for the Steelers.
