Has Vince Young Sealed His Fate?
Known as "The Madden Curse," the cover is known to give the owner of that years cover lingering bad luck throughout the rest of his NFL career. Most prime example, Michael Vick. The year that Vick graced the cover of Madden, just few weeks after it's release Michael Vick breaks his leg in the last preseason game, before the regular season opener. He was out for most of the season. And now, his career looks to be over once he get found guilty for his Dog Fighting empire. Another example, Marshall Faulk. One of the greatest running backs of all time graced the cover one year. Before he was on the cover he never hurt or had gotten seriously hurt. But after he's been fighting nagging injuries, and now he's retired. It's become a scary issue for NFL players. Most will not dare take the payday that comes with being on the cover. Like Ladanian Tomlinson, he has said that he will never be on the Madden cover. Opting instead to sign with anothing gaming studio. Good for him, that curse is something that you don't take your chances with.
Let us now take a moment of silence for Vince Young and his now cursed NFL career.
