While the following will not prevent this happening, it may be an effective workaround:

Thanks for the response. Unfortunately, the player he's supposed to be blocking isn't actually invisible. When watching the video I linked to, I can still count all 11 defensive players. The offensive lineman THINKS he's blocking someone, but he's bugged and is blocking no one. The player he's supposed to block takes a bee-line to the quarterback. So, there's a problem with the AI. I've only noticed it since the "blocking" update, but it's possible that's just coincidental and it's existed before.

I have the same issue. The game is almost unplayable because the glitch is so drastic. My left tackle is on pace for 22 sacks allowed. He really is making a profound effort against blocking the air, though.

Same thing here. Just got the game and I already had to stop playing because this bug happens to me several times a game. 😬
As noted above, this IS NOT an invisible player bug, all 11 defenders are there. This is a blocking bug.
