For many, Jaycee Horn is already one of the very best cornerbacks in the sport. But apparently, the developers over at EA Sports are not amongst the many.
On Thursday, the “Madden NFL 24” ratings for the Carolina Panthers standout and his position group were revealed. The ranks positioned Horn clear out of the spot’s top 20 players, which left the 23-year-old somewhat taken aback . . .

Horn was given an 83 overall rating. That number, at best, makes him the 23rd-ranked cornerback in the upcoming game—as he’s tied with five other players in the all-encompassing category.
This assessment flies in the face of the league-wide perception of Horn, who is considered a top-10 talent by quite a few evaluators and media members. Our own Doug Farrar of Touchdown Wire, in fact, ranked the former eighth overall pick as the NFL’s fifth-best cornerback on his recent list.
Nonetheless, Horn doesn’t seem to have any really hard feelings about it . . .
I’m still gone play that mf tho cause I’m 2 much at the game!
