With the football world going crazy over the Brett Favre trade from the Green Bay Packers to the New York Jets, EA (ea.com) has confirmed that there will be a downloadable update with the star of Madden 2009 dressed in Jets gear. Take a look:

When the latest edition of the football video game franchise is released Tuesday, it will still feature the quarterback in his Green Bay Packers uniform - despite the fact Favre was traded to the New York Jets.

But publisher Electronic Arts said it was releasing a downloadable update to make Favre a member of the Jets in the game, as well as new cover art for anyone who wants it.

"We do not plan to reissue packaging but will offer a free downloadable cover in the coming days on easports.com featuring Brett Favre in a Jets uniform," EA Sports said in a statement released Thursday. "Fans can print this new cover out and insert it into the case of 'Madden NFL 09."'
