Hey there, @ASovietManI 

Thanks for the feedback on this. Hopefully, we'll see the profanity filter refined better in future games.

Hello,

My surname is Cox and I can't use it.

I find it so strange seeing that one of the top NFL defensive tackles surname is Cox.

    Hello, @Jdlive07 

    I hate to say it, but, unfortunately, that name could also be used in an offensive manner so chances are good it's going to remain filtered.

      Seriously??

      Fletcher Cox is ranked as the No. 2 defensive lineman in Madden 22!  Should his name be banned??

      I could understand if somebody was trying to use c*cks.

      This is absolutely unacceptable!

        I absolutely understand the frustration. It's unfortunate those using names like yours legitimately are affected, but many will use them in an offensive manner so some names need to be filtered.

      I have this issue with my last name on Madden every year. My last name is Slagel and I definitely don't understand how that is remotely profane.
