This is a major fundamental change to MUT. Ultimate Team was introduced as a combination of fantasy football and trading cards. Madden players were able to use the cards just like real NFL trading cards: collect favorite player cards, or ones with with unique card art, and trade cards with friends to complete a set. By removing the ability to trade cards, we no longer have virtual trading cards. What is left is just virtual NFL players. No need for card art or info on the back of the card. It’s just a player to add to your team. The “card” part is gone.
