Aaron Donald Breaks Madden Record

The former Pitt Panthers defensive tackle is in the 99 overall club for a record seventh time.

PITTSBURGH -- Former Pitt Panthers defensive tackle Aaron Donald has taken the phrase "video game-like numbers" to new heights with his latest Madden rating. 

In Madden 24, Donald's rating will match the 99 he wears on his jersey for a record-setting seventh straight year. The former Panther great has now surpassed Payton Manning for most consecutive years with a 99 rating in the NFL's flagship video game. 

The Los Angeles Rams' dominant interior lineman, Donald was the second player that Electronic Arts announced as part of the prestigious 99 Club. Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Justin Jefferson, who led the NFL in receptions and receiving yards this past season on the way to Offensive Player of the Year Honors, is the only other player to have been announced as part of the 99 Club so far.
