Stephon Gilmore Tops the List for the Patriots
As previously reported, Stephon Gilmore is the highest-rated player for the Patriots. He’s one of five players to receive a 99-overall rating in the game. The Carolina Panthers’ Christian McCaffrey, New Orleans Saints’ Michael Thomas, Kansas City Chiefs’ Patrick Mahomes, and the Los Angeles Rams’ Aaron Donald are the others.
Considering Gilmore is also the reigning Defensive Player of the Year in the NFL, and the Patriots’ highest-paid player, it would appear his rating is well deserved.

You’ll notice the only Patriots undrafted free agent to receive a rating from EA is Brian Lewerke. That’s strange considering he might be the least likely to make the team. Also, the Patriots’ quarterback situation in the game looks dire. Newton would have to be the clear starter, but he’s been disrespected with a 78 overall. His backup would be Brian Hoyer who edges out Jarrett Stidham who checks in with a laughable 61, and then there is Lewerke with a 54.
Can you say run the ball…a lot?
