Legendary broadcaster John Madden announced his retirement today. But for those worried that his name will suddenly vanish from the equally legendary NFL series, have no fear. According to EA Sports representative David Tinson (via Gamasutra), EA has a "long term contract with Madden."
EA Sports president Peter Moore, meanwhile, said in a statement, "We"re excited to see [Madden"s] legacy live on in the 21st year of Madden NFL Football, and well beyond."
"It"s been a privilege for EA Sports to have had the strong relationship we"ve had with John for more than two decades and one that will continue into the future."
