This is the 9th installment of my no-money spent (NMS) series covering the best tips and tricks for navigating Madden 25 Ultimate team without using a credit card. With Season 4 and All Madden promos now out in MUT, there are multiple ways to attack the no-money-spent grind. Below are some of the best ways to earn the new 92 overall cards that just dropped.

All Madden Promo
The All-Madden promo returns this season and is centered around all of the players that John Madden loved in his time in the NFL. Although this promo has not been bad in the last two years, I miss the old Thanksgiving promos we used to get in Madden Ultimate Team. The upgradeable card in this promo is LT John Madden who has 32 team chemistries and can be upgraded to a 91 overall. Below are all of the details you need to know ahead of the promo.
All Madden Field Pass
The field pass is relatively short compared to the other field passes we have gotten this year. There are 10 levels to the pass with coin rewards, player rewards, upgrade tokens, and an ability token for reaching level 10. The player rewards have continued their power creep as we can earn an 89+ BND player from the pass at level 8. There are four Madden upgrades in this field pass while the champion ability token being attainable at level 10.
Champions
The limited-time cards that dropped in packs are 93 WR Isaac Bruce and 93 ROLB Rickey Jackson. Bruce is currently the best wide receiver in the game with his 92-93 route running while having 93 speed. The champion cards in this promo can be obtained by collecting their 89,86,81, and 81 overall cards. These cards can get better abilities through the tokens earned through the field pass. Below are all of the champions in Part 1 of the release.
- 92 Joe Montana | QB | 49ers, Chiefs
- 92 Brian Urlacher | MLB | Bears
- 92 Keith Byars | FB | Eagles, Dolphins, Patriots, Jets
- 92 Troy Vincent | CB | Eagles, Dolphins, Bills, Commanders
- 92 Matt Birk | C | Vikings, Ravens
- 92 Ronnie Lott | FS | 49ers, Raiders, Jets
Solo Challenges
The solo challenges throughout the promo will allow you to work towards upgrading your John Madden card while receiving ability tokes for all-madden heroes. On top of those rewards at Tier 6 you will receive an 86+ BND all-madden player or 81+ all-madden fantasy pack. Pretty basic rewards from the solo challenges in this promo.
H2H Event
The head-to-head event is shorter as you only need to go on a four-game win streak to achieve the best rewards. The games will consist of 2- or 3-minute quarters with the difficulty increasing after each win. After 1 win you can earn 5,000 coins, 2 wins 10,000 coins, 3 wins 20,000 coins or 81+ pack, and 4 wins two all-madden coin run packs or 84+ player pack. This is not the most lucrative event we have gotten this season, and I wish they returned to the campus hero’s format. In the CH promo, we were able to obtain 84 Jaycee Horn for winning a certain number of games and that felt like the best format this season.
Season 4
Season four of Madden Ultimate Team dropped yesterday and the theme for this season is “Football is Family”. There is a premium pass for $15 that gives you many rewards but as no money spent players, we are interested in what we can get for free. This season, the cards obtained through the field pass can be upgraded to 94 overall but currently you can only get these cards to 92 overall. Below are the players that we can upgrade through the pass.
- 94 Christian McCaffrey | HB | 49ers, Panthers
- 94 Luke McCaffrey | WR | Commanders
- 94 Ed McCaffrey | WR | Broncos, Giants, 49ers
- 94 Joey Bosa | LOLB | Chargers
- 94 Nick Bosa | LE | 49ers
- 94 Quinnen Williams | DT | Jets
- 94 Quincy Williams | ROLB | Jaguars, Jets
Later in the program, you can achieve 87 Stefon and Trevon Diggs which can be upgraded to 94 overall as well. Out of the cards released in this field pass, I am looking at the Trevon Diggs card with 93 speed at corner, Nick Bosa to address my needs at LE, and Christian McCaffrey in the backfield. Once again you can earn coins, strategy items, player packs, and tickets throughout the field pass like past seasons.
My Current No Money Spent Squad
I finally made the necessary upgrades at RB and QB. We added 92 Christian McCaffrey to the squad and picked up 91 Johnny Football from the auction house to hold it down at QB for the time being. We also fully upgraded 91 Martellus Bennett at tight end while adding 90 Xavier Worthy to the wide receiver room. Defensively the only change I made was upgrading LE to 92 Nick Bosa. This All-Madden Promo should help boost my offensive line while giving me an option at LOLB or SS.
Offense
Strongest Position: QB and HB
Weakest Positions: OL
Defense
Strongest Positions: DL
Weakest Positions: LOLB and SS
