SAD NEWS: Alabama star Jalen Milroe just summitted his resignation letter to the management.

Alabama football quarterback Jalen Miloe was included in promotional artwork for the EA Sports College Football 2025 video game, which was published on the Playstation Store website Friday. The art could be included as one of the covers of the game, which is set for a summer release with a full reveal coming later in May, though that is by no means certain.

The avatar photo for the game on the Playstation Store included a banner denoting it as the “Deluxe Edition,” making for a stronger possibility that the art will be one of the game’s covers. EA will likely release multiple versions of the game, possibly with different covers.

Milroe was shown from the back in his white Alabama uniform, as part of a large group of players from various teams in a stadium tunnel. He’s part of the second row of players shown, with the image highlighting Texas QB Quinn Ewers, Michigan RB Donovan Edwards and Colorado’s Travis Hunter.

Other players shown in the artwork include Georgia’s Carson Beck and Ohio State’s Quinshon Judkins. Various other players are included, but are not identifiable with their names.
If Milroe is included on one of the game’s covers, he would be the third Alabama player to do so as part of the EA Sports series. Mark Ingram was the cover athlete of NCAA Football 12, while Shaun Alexander graced the front of NCAA Football 01.
The series paused after NCAA Football 2014, due to the NCAA’s insistence that players not receive compensation for their likenesses. A lawsuit brought by former UCLA basketball player Ed O’Bannon meant EA could not do as it had in the past, creating college rosters with things like numbers and hometowns, but not names, for active players.
After NIL payments to players became legal, the possibility of a new game resurfaced. The game will not carry NCAA branding, but will have all FBS teams included.

A teaser trailer for the game was officially released in February, with the game set to drop in summer. The bio on the official social media account for the game says the full reveal is set for this month.
