Predictor Players
Each team in the NFL Playoffs has one Predictor Player. For each Playoff game the player's team wins, their item will receive a +1 OVR upgrade. Since the Eagles and Chiefs both have first-round byes, their Predictor Player items begin at 91 OVR.
Predictor Players can be acquired by completing the respective player's set that requires 1 Player Predictor Token. A total of two Player Predictor Tokens can be earned from levels 2 and 4 of the Playoffs Field Pass. Predictor Sets will expire on Saturday, January 14th at 3 PM ET.
