Junior Seau Challenge 2 kicks me from UT

I am having the same issue! Have no idea where to turn.

Found it...Create a new empty lineup then generate best. I had to generate twice for it to work.

The “Sunday Spotlight: Retro” challenge in Ultimate Team appears to be bugged for me, specifically the “Sunday Spotlight: Junior Seau 2” challenge.

Yesterday, I was playing through the Sunday Spotlight: Junior Seau sequence. I completed Junior Seau 1, but I’m not sure whether I completed Junior Seau 2 before the issue started. At some point, I tabbed out either during the challenge or right after finishing it, and the game became stuck on the loading screen. I eventually had to force close it with Alt+F4.

Since then, Junior Seau 2 has been broken and will not let me play it. It still shows as not completed.

When I first click “Sunday Spotlight: Junior Seau,” I receive the following message:

“Your previous game is still being processed by the EA Servers. Your estimated processing time is Less Than 1 Minute. To refresh, please exit and enter the Event again.”

It then sends me back to the Ultimate Team main menu. If I click “Sunday Spotlight: Junior Seau” again, it lets me enter the event, but when I try to start Junior Seau 2, I am immediately kicked back to the main menu with this message:

“You have lost your connection to the EA Servers. Please check your network connection. You will be unable to access any online features until you sign in again. See www.ea.com/unable-to-connect for additional information.”

After clicking OK, I also receive:

“Our servers cannot process your request at this time. Please try again later.”

I have tried the following with no success:

• Waiting over a day
• Restarting the game
• Playing other solo challenges before trying again
• Playing other Ultimate Team content before trying again
• Exiting and re-entering the event multiple times
• Clearing the EA App cache
• Deleting the user history file:
  EA_SPORTS™_College_Football_27UserHistory616974c0
  located in:
  C:\Users\marqu\AppData\Roaming\Madden
  (This fixed a previous no-audio issue for me, but did not fix this.)
• Swapping a few players in and out of my lineup

I can still play Junior Seau 1, 3, 4, and 5 normally. The issue only occurs when I attempt to launch Junior Seau 2.

Has anyone else encountered this issue with Sunday Spotlight: Junior Seau 2/Other Challenges or found a workaround? It seems like the challenge may be stuck in a server-side “processing” state, so I’m wondering if it needs to be reset or fixed by EA.

I'm having the same exact issue bro wtf

Did you generate after it booted you back to ultimate team menu or back to the starting menu?

I found a fix guys, create a new lineup with "by best team overall". Then, remove all backup players and make sure no players are in specialists that aren't in offensive or defensive positions. That's what fixed the bug for me.

For some reason creating a new lineup with "by best team overall" by itself didn't work for me. I had to remove all backup players and make sure no players were in specialists that weren't in offensive or defensive positions. That's what fixed the bug for me. Thanks for pointing me in the right direction though!

Thank you so much. You bring honor to your people. May your greatness be seen! 😂

• Platform (PS5)
• Your EA ID/gamertag: doodlemafia
• That the error has persisted more than 24 hours
• The exact challenge (Sunday Spotlight: Retro – Junior Seau)
• The screenshot you posted
• This challenge is blocked because the game thinks the previous event is still processing.

please clear and send me a rare pack or better for my inconvenience. Thank you. 

That worked, thanks!
