Was there a bug in a Madden 06 roster update?

Rumors abound that EA had a "little" problem with a roster update to the Madden 06 series, accounting for the presence and quick disappearance of that particular update. If screenshots are spot on, it appears that the update resulted in a minimization of NY Jets offensive lineman Michael King. King, who in real life stands 6 feet, 3 inches tall and tips the scales at over 300 pounds, was reduced to roughly 7 inches tall. Apparently his "collision box" on the field remained the same size, making him for that brief while perhaps the most powerful seven inch tall man in the NFL. Recent roster updates are supposedly back to normal, as far as height it concerned.
