Denver Broncos star Patrick Surtain II proved he is not only one of the best CBs in the league but also one of the best defenders overall last season. He ended up being named the NFL's Defensive Player of the Year and is one of the true foundational pieces of the Denver franchise.
Even with all of those facts, Surtain found a way to relate to millions of football fans via social media due to a major frustration he has had with the new College Football 26 video game.
For those that may not know, "Road to Glory" is a game mode in CFB 26 where you control a single player and play out their career. In this year's game, the Road to Glory mode begins during your player's senior year of high school.
You play in key moments of a few games, where you pick objectives that you have to accomplish. At some point during the mode, one of the college coaches on your list of interested schools will offer you a special objective to gain a significant interest reward from that program. Surtain is sharing his gripes with one of the objectives that come with that situation.
For example, if you choose to be a dual-threat QB in the game mode, the special objective college coaches will give you will be to record a 50+ yard run during that specific drive. A task that many have called nearly impossible, especially for those who challenge themselves to the max and play the game on Heisman difficulty. The objective Surtain was given was to score a 50+ yard touchdown, which makes me assume he is playing as either an RB or a WR in the game. CFB 26 fans definitely feel Surtain's pain, and they also relate to the feeling of watching your five star player slowly but surely drop in the recruiting rankings.
