Leaks Emerge from College Football 26 Cover Shoot
Via tubbycfb (IG) by way of On3, we have a purported first look at the Deluxe Edition cover of College Football 26.
On Wednesday, current collegiate players, past players, current coaches, and mascots were at the Rose Bowl for a CFB 26 photoshoot according to Peke Nakos of On3.
Courtesy On3: Sources told On3 that Michigan quarterback Bryce Underwood, Florida quarterback DJ Lagway, LSU quarterback Garrett Nussmeier, Notre Dame running back Jeremiyah Love, Alabama wide receiver Ryan Williams, Ohio State wide receiver Jeremiah Smith, Ohio State safety Caleb Downs, Arizona State quarterback Sam Leavitt and South Carolina EDGE Dylan Stewart were all in attendance.
EA College Football plans to release multiple covers in 2026, sources said, explaining why so many athletes were in Pasadena. That will also reportedly include a coaches’ cover, with Ohio State’s Ryan Day, Georgia’s Kirby Smart, Penn State’s James Franklin, Ole Miss’ Lane Kiffin, Oregon’s Dan Lanning and Arizona State’s Kenny Dillingham participating.
A legends cover is reportedly in the works, too, with former Michigan quarterback Denard Robinson and Florida quarterback Tim Tebow participating in the photoshoot.
The inclusion of current coaches is noteworthy as it strongly implies that at least some real-life coaches may be appearing in the title, a first for the franchise.
