Bo knows Madden! Madden 21 Ultimate Legends Group 16 has arrived and features all-time greats Bo Jackson for offense and Lawrence Taylor on defense. Both players receive new 99 overall cards for Ultimate Team, complete with upgraded attributes. In addition, there are several limited cards available this weekend. One of those is in honor of recently-retired kicker and likely Hall of Famer, Adam Vinatieri.
Bo, LT headline Madden 21 Ultimate Legends Group 16
The latest Ultimate Team content has offered impressive options, giving gamers some of the best cards yet in the game. Just recently, we saw four more Golden Tickets players including a powerful strong safety Carl Banks. Now MUT gets two of the all-time greats in Madden. Bo Jackson is among the headliners for Madden 21 Ultimate Legends Group 16 with his new 99 overall card.
Prior to the Ultimate Legends release, the best Bo card in the game was his 96 OVR Ghosts of Madden card. However, the new Career Edition UL item features a 99 overall with 99 Speed, 99 Break Tackle, 99 Trucking, 98 Acceleration, 97 Agility, and 96 Change of Direction.
To complement a player of Bo’s popularity in Madden they added a popular defensive star with him. Lawrence Taylor makes his return with a 99 OVR card in the UL series, after previously holding a 91 OVR in Legends. On his updated Career Edition item, he gets 99 Power Moves, 97 Acceleration, 96 Finesse Moves, 96 Block Shedding, 95 Tackling, and 94 Speed.
Check out the new card art and other career stats below for the two-time Super Bowl winner and Hall of Famer.
How to get Bo, Lawrence Taylor items in MUT
To get the above items requires either purchasing them for high prices at the Madden Auction House, finding them randomly in packs, or putting together an exchange set. Based on previous releases, their Ultimate Legends exchange sets will consist of the players four 89 OVR cards, four 93 OVR cards, and one 97 OVR card.
There should also be two exchange sets to get Bo or LT as Random Skill players. These require 14 cards: two 87-88 OVR, five 85-86 OVR, and seven 83-84 OVR Legend Players.
In addition, there are also the new Ultimate Legends Challenges available with Madden Coins, Power Ups, and a UL Token up for grabs, good for use in the UL Player Exchange set.
New Limited cards arrive for Ronde Barber, Adam Vinatieri
Ronde Barber is the limited availability card for Madden 21 Ultimate Legends Group 16. His new card will only be available in packs for 48 hours starting on Saturday. With Barber, MUT rosters get a Corner with 98 Man Coverage, 98 Play Recognition, 96 Acceleration, 96 Speed, and 95 Zone Coverage ratings.
Gamers can also pick up the game’s best kicker of all time with Adam Vinatieri limited cards now available. The four-time Super Bowl champ recently announced his retirement after a 23-year career. He leaves as the all-time leader in field goals made and career points. In addition, he holds a record for most consecutive field goals, with 44.
He’s not an Ultimate Legends card but a Madden 21 Tribute card. There are two types available, with an LTD available in the Store for 48 hours starting Saturday. There’s also a Non-Auctionable/Tradeable variety available at the Store to buy with Training. This one is available for 48 hours as well.
