Manning reportedly wanted to just focus on football, but other than that, most players have opted into the game.
"The response to the athlete opt-in opportunity for EA Sports ‘College Football 25’ has been phenomenal," EA Sports' Tiburon Studios and American football division senior vice president and group general manager Daryl Holt reportedly said in a statement to ESPN on Monday.

Each player who opts in to have their name, image and likeness used will receive $600 and a copy of the game, valued at around $70.
