Steelers kicker Chris Boswell gets snubbed in Madden 26 player ratings
Of all the players on the Steelers, none deserved to be on top in the EA Sports Madden 26 player ratings more than kicker Chris Boswell but he missed the cut.
When you think about the elite players on the Pittsburgh Steelers, names like defensive tackle Cameron Heyward and edge defender T.J. Watt always come to mind. But we'd argue neither stands out at their position the way kicker Chris Boswell does. Boswell has become the standard for an NFL kicker and is still the most consistent scoring threat on the Steelers roster.
EA Sports disagrees. They put out the kicker player ratings for Madden 26 and had Boswell listed as the No. 2 kicker behind Dallas Cowboys kicker Brandon Aubrey. Aubredy checked in with an 87 while Boswell scored an 85.
The numbers tell us Boswell is the better kicker. Boswell made 41 field goals in 2024 compared to Aubrey's 40. Boswell hit his field goals with 93.2 percent accuracy compared to Aubrey's 85.1 percent. Both guys hit all of their extra points with Boswell going 35-for-35 and Aubrey going 30-for-30.
The only stat where Aubrey has an edge is the longest field goal. Aubrey hit his best last season from 65 yards and Boswell's best was from 57 yards. However, Boswell went 13-of-15 from 50 yards or more and Aubrey went 14-of-17.
