J.J. Watt, Aaron Donald and Pass-Rusher X-Factors Revealed for Madden NFL 21

J.J. Watt and Aaron Donald are two of the greatest pass rushers in NFL history, and their new Madden 21 Superstar X-Factors highlight their dominance off the line of scrimmage.

Watt (Relentless) and Donald (Blitz) are the faces of the two new pass-rushing X-Factors that will be available in this year's release.

Donald is the only player in this year's game with the Blitz X-Factor, which is described as follows on EA's website:
