How to upgrade MUT Captains
Captains can be upgraded using Captain Upgrade Tokens. You can collect these items through the Captain’s Field Pass and use them to increase the OVR of your preferred player. You’ll need five Upgrade Tokens to bump your 78 OVR MUT Captain up to 83 OVR, which is the current rating cap.
As for which player you should invest your tokens in, we recommend opting for either Jeff Saturday or Troy Vincent. The former Colts’ center is a solid addition to any offensive line and his attributes will only improve with further upgrades.
Vincent, on the other hand, can turn into a formidable cornerback with the OVR boost. With 81 Speed, 79 Acceleration, and 80 Man Coverage, the CB will give any wide receiver a tough time.
