It is that time of year again when the player ratings are revealed for Madden 24. This year, Madden will be available on August 18 and features five players with a 99-rated card, the highest any player can get. For fans of the Madden NFL video game, 99 is not just a number but a symbol of pride and joy. This number signifies that the player is one of the best players in the NFL.
EA has finally revealed the list of stars who will be featured in the 99 Club of Madden 24. All the players who have been selected are from different teams that have featured in the playoffs. Let’s take a closer look at the best teams and players!
EA Sports released Madden 24 ratings
The basic protocol is that a few weeks before Madden starts, EA Sports releases the list of players’ and teams’ rankings. Different players are given different ranks, but the most prestigious rank is 99.
Just like players, teams also get an overall rating. This year, Kansas City Chiefs, the reigning Super Bowl champions, have a rating of 92, the best in the game. Nine of the top 10 teams were featured in the playoffs last season. Here is the list:
#1. Kansas City Chiefs: 92
#2. Philadelphia Eagles: 91
#3. Buffalo Bills: 90
#4. Cincinnati Bengals: 89
#5. Dallas Cowboys: 88
#6. Baltimore Ravens: 87
#7. Cleveland Browns: 87
#8. Miami Dolphins: 86
#9. San Francisco 49ers: 86
#10. Los Angeles Chargers: 85
99 Club members in the game
This year’s list consists of 5 players on the 99 rank which means this time five players will be featured on Madden 24.
#1. Justin Jefferson
Jefferson, the Vikings wide receiver, had an exceptional season in 2022. The WR made the best catch of the year with the Buffalo Bills and also went for over 1,800 yards.

#2. Aaron Donald
His inclusion in the list for Madden 24 is a record-breaker. He has already been given this honor six times before. The Los Angeles Rams’ DL has been the NFL’s Defensive Player of the Year on three occasions.
Most appearances in Madden history 😱

#3. Zack Martin
Martin is one of the first offensive guards to make an appearance in the 99 Club since Larry Allen. The Dallas Cowboys star has been one of the very best at the position in all nine seasons he has been in the NFL.

#4. Travis Kelce
Kelce deserved this inclusion for his exceptional performance in the last season. He played a major role in leading the Chiefs to a Super Bowl win.

#5. Patrick Mahomes
It was no surprise that Mahomes was added to the 99 club. He is one of the best quarterbacks in the league and was also named another Super Bowl last season.

So, there are five players who are given the honor to be included in the 99 Club. Undoubtedly, all these members deserved this for their immense talent, hard work, and exceptional performances they showed in the last season.
Surprisingly, Josh Allen didn’t make it to the list, despite featuring as a cover star for the game! He received a 94-overall rated card instead.
A childhood dream come true 🙏
