EA Games announced today that it will remove the image of former NFL Las Vegas Raiders coach Jon Gruden from the video game Madden NFL 22. Jon Gruden resigned from the team this week after being embroiled in controversy over racist and homophobic comments made in an email.

 

Jon Gruden, a veteran football coach, used homophobic and racially charged comments in emails about players, other coaches and NFL president Roger Goodell in 2011, and the emails came to light in a court filing in a lawsuit launched by Washington football team owner Dan Snyder.

 

Gruden resigned after the emails came to light, and his image in Madden NFL 22 will be replaced with a generic portrait. EA Sports said they will "take action on all fronts to preserve a culture of inclusion and equality.

 

In a Twitter statement, EA stated that Gruden will be replaced by a "generic likeness" in future updates as EA affirms its commitment to maintaining "a culture of inclusion and equity.

 

The full statement reads; "EA Sports is committed to taking action to maintain a culture of inclusivity and equity. Due to the circumstances surrounding Jon Gruden's resignation, we are taking steps to remove him from Madden NFL 22. We will be replacing him with a generic portrait in the next few weeks (in-game) through an update.

 

This is not the first time EA has removed an individual from a Madden NFL game. Previously, it cut Ray Rice from Madden NFL 15 and even Aaron Hernandez from Madden NFL 25.
