Madden NFL 15 Screenshot - Colin Kaepernick with Tattoos

[btvs]

That looks amazing. Madden 15 makes Madden 25 look like a cartoon, seriously. I'm glad tattoos are back.

EA: Kaepernick personally secured his own permissions for tattoos in upcoming "Madden." Not sign of broader plan. More coming in SBD

Eric Fisher ‏@EricFisherSBJ 5m
NFL doesn't have a contractual ban against tattoos in Madden. Artist permissions have been issue, but Kap got his own

I just saw this tweet as well. I asked if he had any info on the exclusivity of the license. Hopefully he can shed some light on the future.

Hey, it's still a victory. It's not like EA Sports were being lazy or the NFL were being the "No Fun League" on this matter. Kaepernick is a big name player and although not all players will have tats, it's still cool that some will if permission is allowed. I'll take what I can get. It doesn't have to be all or nothing.

You guys really think he'll be the ONLY NFL player in a 2015 PRO FOOTBALL GAME?!! That first tweet right there just leads me to think there is more competition against EA Sports come E3 2014!!!

So basically Kaepernick and maybe a select few will have tattoos? Why bother..

Also, how does NBA 2 get away with tattoos if its an artist issue
