Kyle Van Noy is the king of brushing off the haters. That said, he doesn’t might letting the criticism and the snubs fuel him. He said he’s not hurt by his low rating in “Madden NFL 20” which were announced on Monday.
The New England Patriots linebacker shared his thoughts on Madden’s breakdown out his abilities.
“Good thing I don’t play madden or I’d be mad with my 77 rating,” Van Noy wrote on Twitter on Monday.
Van Noy may not admit it, but — much he like he enjoyed proving people wrong in 2018 — he’s probably going to embrace his chance to outperform his rating.
Van Noy finished the 2018 regular season with 92 tackles, 3.5 sacks and one interception. During the playoffs, Van Noy was sensational, with 10 tackles, two sacks and a forced fumble in the AFC championship and four tackles and one sack in Super Bowl LIII.
He’ll likely be at the center of another impressive New England defense in 2019, with a strong linebacker group that includes Dont’a Hightower, Jamie Collins, Ja’Whuan Bentley and Elandon Roberts.
