Deion Sanders says he is not included in EA Sports’ upcoming college football video game, “College Football 27.” In comments covered by outlets, Sanders frames the issue as a straightforward matter of business arrangements and representation. He indicates that his team manages his professional engagements and that he does not personally control all decisions tied to licensing or appearances. The Athletic reports Sanders’ suggestion that the reason he is not in the game may be related to compensation, implying EA Sports did not offer terms he considered sufficient for his inclusion. Another outlet describes Sanders’ remarks more directly, emphasizing the absence of his presence in the game. Neither account details a specific contract dispute, a formal denial from EA Sports, or alternative explanations such as scheduling, licensing limitations, or rights restrictions. Based on the reporting, the information available centers on Sanders’ own statements and speculation about the role of payment and negotiations in determining whether he appears as a likeness or brand figure in the final product.
