Deebo Samuel isn't bothered by Madden NFL 23's low rating.
Many loyal 49ers and NFL fans took issue with Deebo Samuel's rating in the latest Madden game, but the star wide receiver couldn't care less about his video game rating.
Samuel didn't top the top 10 wide receivers from Madden NFL 23 when the ratings for the position group were released on Monday, much to the surprise of many, especially given his All-Pro season last year.
His 89 rating tied for 13th on the game's comprehensive receiver list, along with DK Metcalf and Chris Godwin.
But Samuel took to social media Monday night to let fans know he's not worried about his rating. He doesn't even play the game.
Samuel includes Davante Adams (99), Cooper Kupp (98), Tyreek Hill (97), DeAndre Hopkins (96), Stefon Diggs (95), Justin Jefferson (93), Mike Evans (92), Keenan Allen (91), Terry McLaurin (91) and Amari Cooper (90).
Samuel ranks in the top 10 receivers in Madden 23 in other subcategories like Toughness Rating (tied for No. 1) and Kick Rating (tied for No. 2), but his production last season wasn't enough to boost your overall score.
The 49er's "broad back" set the record for most rushing touchdowns by a receiver in the regular season (8) in 2021 and led the league in receiving yards (18.2). But luckily for the 49ers, it happened in real NFL games and not on a screen.
And while fans eagerly await news about Samuel's contract, it's clear their star wide receiver isn't paying attention to all the noise, whether in virtual or real life.
