This is something happening on servers we don't have control over. It's like saying you're trying to make a phone call to a friend, but the phone lines are down. It's not your friend's responsibility to fix it. That would be up to the phone company.
How about this? I still have the issue despite routing working to port 443 just fine (hop 6 is Level3 backbone that does not provide response, but does route):
$ sudo tcptraceroute easo.ea.com 443
Selected device en0, address 10.0.0.83, port 51531 for outgoing packets

Did a timeout in the game get changed when Superstar KO got updated to be play until die? That's when all this issue started happening.

I think it's best to ignore the tests I posted from my mobile phone network. The tests from my home network are all consistent, show EA as the routing failure. As Xfinity and Level3 both explained, the *** after level3 is not an issue, and you can clearly see the traffic makes it to the EA servers on the 159 network.

help.ea.com is broken too. https://help.ea.com/en/contact-us/?product=madden-nfl-21&platform=ps4&category=technical-support&issue=connectivity and try to contact support. The website says "Somebody call technical support" which is what I am trying to do when I go to that site.

I tried in incognito mode in chrome, tried to use chat support, but the message says, "we would like to talk to you. please call us". It gives hours of avialibiliyt, but no phone number.
Next, I tried requesting a call. I am logged in, filled out the form correctly, and the form says there is an authentication error. I logged out and in again, and same result.
EA is striking out over and over and over.

I can see you have 2 cases currently in our system that you opened today. A chat advisor should be contacting you. Another option is to contact an advisor through Twitter (@EAHelp) or Facebook (facebook.com/eahelphub) and have them put in a request for a callback.
