For this week's All-Access video, EA has given us a sneak peek at Madden 22's Face of the Franchise mode called "United We Rise". There are a few upgrades to this year's version of the mode, with the biggest being the ability to play as a linebacker on the defensive side of the football for the first time. Today's video was mostly a teaser but you can expect a more detailed breakdown of Face of the Franchise with Friday's Gridiron Notes. Check out what we learned from today's video and what we can expect in an upcoming version of Gridiron Notes below:

Road to the Draft
The Face of the Franchise journey begins before the NFL Draft and includes the following key elements:
- Work out at Nike Headquarters
- Flashback to the College Football Playoff
- Conduct a Pre-Draft workout with an interested NFL team
- Meet a diverse cast of characters
- Off-field choices impact your Draft stock
Class Progression System
The all-new Class Progression System allows you to customize your avatar and level up through gameplay based on your preferred playstyle. If you're a pocket-passing QB like Tom Brady, equip "The General" to help throw more darts with your player. If you are more of the improvising type, similar to Patrick Mahomes, equip "The Magician" for your player's class to help pull a few rabbits out of the hat while scrambling.
Linebacker Position
For the first time in Face of the Franchise, you can now play as a linebacker. If you prefer an agile, coverage-style LB, choose the "Hawk" class. If you're looking to get at the QB and disrupt runs in the backfield, go with the "Infiltrator" class.
The Yard Progression
If you are someone who enjoys playing The Yard, Madden NFL 22 will offer unified class progression between Face of the Franchise and The Yard game modes. This unification provides players with more than one way to level up their preferred classes.
Gridiron Notes Preview
Gridiron Notes typically release on Friday and we can expect an in-depth breakdown on the following subjects in the next version:
