The post-week 11 roster update for Madden NFL 12 arrived early this morning for both the Xbox 360 and PS3! The update will reflect the injury to Jay Cutler that is expected to keep him out potentially for the rest of the regular season. The news of Kyle Orton’s release (and obviously if a team claims him off waivers today) came too late to be reflected.
Kevin Smith gets a big boost moving up to 79 overall while Chris Johnson drops even further and now sits at 86. Rob Gronkowski gets a significant increase to 92, while Champ Bailey, Jared Allen, and Nick Mangold – who had risen to the brink of reaching 99 – slide away from it.
Teams gaining the most in terms of net players rising vs falling are the Lions (+8), Raiders (+7), Redskins and Cowboys (+6) while the ones damaged the most by the update are the Jets (-7), Bills and Panthers (-4). Continue on for the full list of changes in the latest Madden NFL 12 roster update and leave your thoughts in the comments!Â
