Madden NFL 20 released its rookie player ratings on Monday, and the Kansas City Chiefs’ top pick, wide receiver Mecole Hardman, came out with a 70 overall.

Madden also released a video featuring Hardman, among other rookies, on its official Twitter account:

Hardman, who the Madden developers gave a 95 speed rating, is seen saying he thinks he could beat Seattle Seahawks receiver D.K. Metcalf in a race in the video (1:06 mark). Metcalf replies he ran the same time as Hardman.

That, as it turns out, is true—they both ran a 4.33 40-yard dash at the NFL’s Scouting Combine. The game’s fastest rookie is Ravens wide receiver Marquise “Hollywood” Brown with a 97 rating.
