“Delay Sunday” Coach Ability Not Working – Players Still Leaving Early for NFL

 

I unlocked and activated the “Delay Sunday” ability in Dynasty Mode, which is supposed to reduce the chance of players leaving early for the NFL Draft. However, after multiple tests, it clearly doesn’t work.

Here’s exactly what I did:

Purchased the ability and saved progress

Simulated through offseason with juniors, and even some sophomores projected as 1st-round picks

Watched them leave early no change at all compared to simulations without the ability

There’s no visible effect from this perk. If it’s supposed to reduce early departures, it’s either not functioning or the percentage is so small that it’s meaningless.

I've also noticed the same issue in college football 25 last year

Please confirm

1. Is this a known issue with the “Delay Sunday” ability.

2. Is the feature currently broken or functioning as designed?

3. Will this be addressed in an upcoming patch?

This is affecting Dynasty gameplay and coach progression. A fix or official clarification would be appreciated.

Thank you.

  • Having the same experience, purchasing the ability has no effect whatsoever. Also the amount of players for whom the persuasion chance is „none“ is way too high, particularly considering RS Sophomores.

    Both the impact of the coaching ability and the overall control of the user to prevent players from leaving for the draft (via sliders or settings) needs to be addressed.

    I get it if online dynasties are supposed to be realistic and competitive but let us do whatever we want in offline modes (and for me that includes keeping NIL-players at bay).
