EA Sports released the launch-date player ratings for Madden NFL 19 this week. You're not going to please everyone when it comes to the scores on the multi-platform football game, and three San Francisco 49ers weren't overjoyed about their ratings in this year's title.
All three players felt their speed rating within the game should have been higher. Safety Adrian Colbert tweeted to 49ers assistant strength and conditioning coach Shane Wallen with a suggestion.
What is interesting is that EA Sports' official Madden NFL Twitter account
replied and asked (most likely jokingly) to see the film.
Safety Jaquiski Tartt replied to Colbert and EA Sports regarding his own speed rating.
"Let's race,"
Colbert replied to Tartt. "I'll give you a head start too."
Then there was rookie cornerback D.J. Reed, who also was not fond of his speed rating.
Again, EA Sports' Madden NFL Twitter account
responded by asking, "What should it be?"
Below are the Madden NFL 19 ratings for all three defensive backs along with their speed ratings.

49ers local pro day: These 44 players will work out in Santa Clara
The San Francisco 49ers are holding their local pro day today at Levi's Stadium in Santa Clara. The team has released the full roster of participants.
An NFL local pro day is an event hosted by teams to allow prospects with ties to the local area to showcase their skills in front of team personnel. These prospects typically hail from nearby colleges or have some other connection to the region where the team is based.

The event aims to give the team a closer look at these local talents who may have received less attention during the regular scouting process. It will allow the
Tom Brady 'not opposed' to NFL return with a playoff-bound team like the 49ers
Just when you thought the San Francisco 49ers and Tom Brady storylines had concluded, the future Hall of Fame quarterback drops another tidbit that sparks discussion. During an episode of "DeepCut with VicBlends," the host asked Brady what he would do if the NFL came calling once again.
VicBlends inquired if Brady would consider returning to the football field if a playoff-bound team like the 49ers needed him.
"I'm not opposed to it," Brady said, per Jordan Mendoza of USA Today. "I don't know if they're gonna let me if I become an owner an NFL team. I don't know, I'm always gonna be in good shape, always be able to
