This has rendered the game inaccessible.
Try deleting your profile do not back out but go to your consoles home screen and quit the game. Downside is you will need to re-enter all settings and audibles and favorites. But will improve the game from freezing temporarily.
I'm having the exact same problem. I don't believe this happened before but it happened to me 3 times tonight before I figured out what was going on.
Same for me, this is while playing Franchise Mode of Madden 26 with the Falcons. It started in week 6.
Same problem, do you know any way to fix without messing up my data?
