ESPN returns with hosting Madden Ratings week July 26-30

New York- Since it was very successful last year, ESPN has decided to return with hosting Madden Ratings week.

SportsCenter will kick off the week with a special hosted by Laura Rutledge and Mina Kimes on Sunday, July 25 at 12:30 p.m. ET on ESPN.
