Madden NFL 26 Devs Show Multiple Motions with New Authentic Playbook Updates

In the video below featuring the Commanders, the playbook is designed to make the most of Debo Samuel’s all-around skill set with formations where he shifts into the backfield, takes handoffs, runs routes or acts as the pitch man in triple-option plays. It also blends a variety of runs, passes and option looks that showcase Jayden Daniels’ athleticism, opening up more creative ways for players to move the ball.
