In one of the more entertaining press conferences of the Detroit Lions training camp thus far, cornerback Carlton Davis fired off a few shots about something that made him quite upset.
No, it wasn’t anything that happened on the field on an eventful, scrimmage-like Friday practice. It was his player rating in the Madden 25 video game.
The ratings are getting released publicly, and Davis earned an 83 overall from the developers at EA Sports, who make the annual game. That rating (playfully) set off Davis, who came to Detroit via a trade with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers this offseason.
“I hate it,” Davis said after mouthing a profanity with a smile. “I can’t even see what I want to say. I don’t respect the ratings. I think it’s like a lot of hype that go into it. I just think its a lot of BS. I don’t think they stand on all 10 toes as far as like the ratings and the guys who they’re giving them ratings to and the guys who they aren’t giving ratings to. But it is what it is.”
His rant against Madden 25 ended when rookie CB Terrion Arnold hijacked the interview with an unscheduled, well-received and hilarious appearance.
