‘Madden 19’ made this football player ugly

Normally it would be a pretty cool to see yourself in a video game, but Houston Texans defensive end Christian Covington found his own digital representation to be a bit… uh… lacking.

Covington posted a photo of his character in the newly released Madden 19 Wednesday. Instead of a true-to-life model like some players get, Covington’s in-game model is really off, and honestly pretty ugly.

To be clear, that’s supposed to be the same person as the guy in that picture up at the top of this article.

“Guess I have to accept the fact that I’m ugly now,” Covington tweeted. It’s very clear from the real-life photo of Covington that he is not an ugly person by any means, but sadly that’s what he got in Madden.

He’s not the only football player to get a less-than-flattering representation in Madden. Take a look at Trent Taylor’s character.

Or how about this digital recreation of Daron Payne.

It can’t be easy to digitally recreate players’ faces in games like Madden, especially when there are hundreds of players in the game. But at the very least it would be nice if these players had characters that looked like they could be them.
