All NFL Combine Answers In Madden 26

Superstar Mode has returned in Madden NFL 26, and it allows you to create your own player and go through the entire NFL experience. This includes the entire pre-draft process, which culminates with getting drafted by one of the 32 NFL teams. However, before you can get drafted, you need to participate in the NFL Combine. The Combine is meant to be a complete evaluation of you as a player, but it’s not just your physical traits being tested. There’s also a Combine interview where teams will ask you a series of questions, and you need to provide the correct answers.

While you can try to complete the interview by yourself, we have provided a list of every question and answer for the NFL Combine in the guide below. This lets you completely ace the test and get drafted highly in Madden 26’s Superstar Mode.
