Seahawks RB Jadarian Price’s Madden 27 rating revealed

August 8, 2026 - 23:57

Seattle Seahawks running back Jadarian Price received his initial Madden 27 rating this week, and the number has sparked some conversation among fans. Price landed at a 68 overall, placing him well below several other high-profile rookies who entered the league with more hype. The rating puts him in the mid-tier range for first-year players, a spot that often reflects uncertainty about a player's immediate role rather than a lack of talent.

Price was selected in the fourth round out of Oregon, where he showed a blend of quickness and power. His college tape impressed scouts, but the NFL transition is always a different story. Madden's ratings team typically leans conservative with later-round picks, especially at running back, where the depth chart can be crowded. In Seattle, Price is competing for carries behind a veteran starter, so his early playing time is far from guaranteed.

Some fans argue the rating is too harsh, pointing to Price's burst through the hole and his ability to catch passes out of the backfield. Others say a 68 is fair for a player who has yet to take a single regular season snap. The rating could improve quickly if Price earns a meaningful role in training camp and preseason games. Madden updates player ratings weekly during the season, so a strong start could push him into the mid-70s by October.

For now, Price will have to prove himself on the field. The low number might serve as extra motivation, but it also reflects the reality that rookies outside the first two rounds often start with modest expectations. Seahawks fans will be watching closely to see if Price can outperform his digital counterpart.
