DeAngelo Williams of the Steelers dyed his hair pink this past season with the Panthers as a tribute to his mother, Sandra, whom he lost to breast cancer in 2010:

Williams later wrote about how important the color pink was to him and his mother's memory -- how he'd had direct experience with raising awareness and encouraging people to get checkups because they saw pink. So it's a nice little tribute -- and one Williams appreciated -- for Madden 16 to include DeAngelo's long pink hair as a game detail:
Hey @EAMaddenNFL not worried about rating/speed but the hair was of interest to me and you nailed it #wewillfindacure http://pic.twitter.com/ezEY9yvOmy
