Colts rookie Adonai Mitchell is already a part of the College Football 25 video game

Happy College Football 25 launch day to those who celebrate.

Fans of the Indianapolis Colts have the opportunity to play with a key member of their 2024 NFL Draft class ahead of Madden's release later this summer.

The Colts' second-round pick Adonai Mitchell has been named an "Ultimate Alumni" and will be a playable character in EA Sports' College Football 25 video game.

Mitchell and the rest of the 2024 NFL Draft class just missed out on the opportunity to be in the literal game on their college rosters. But EA Sports announced ten upcoming NFL rookies as "Ultimate Alumni." This means they already have a card in the game's "Ultimate Team" game mode.

To have the chance to claim Mitchell or one of the other nine rookies, you must pre-order the Deluxe or MVP version of the game ahead of tomorrow's 4 pm early release.

Personally, I won't be firing up the Ultimate Team mode as my first experience in the game that we've all waited a decade for. I likely will fire up an exhibition game and get my first Dynasty rebuild set up before even giving Ultimate Team a thought. But once I get those out of my system, I will absolutely be heading over to claim my Adonai Mitchell card so I can have the newest Colts WR as a foundational piece of my Ultimate Team roster.
