Cover boy for Madden NFL 16, New York Giants wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr., is of course in the newly released gameplay trailer. But what has audiences getting so appropriately hyped at this very moment is how he appears in the trailer.

Beckham’s legendary catch against the Dallas Cowboys during Week 12 last season on Sunday Night Football is actually in the game. And as all of us old-school sports gamers know: “if it’s in the game, it’s in the game.”
