EA Sports and August is a recipe for familiarity, and this year is no exception as the legacy of John Madden comes to the forefront once again to reiterate to fans that it is, in fact, in the game. Yet while avid players of the everlasting American football franchise look for any early advantage, we all know which well fans love to frequent the most: Speed. That’s why you’re here, after all, and so we’re here to break down the fastest wide receivers Madden NFL 23 has to offer.
Madden NFL 23 — Fastest Wide Receivers
Don’t worry about that monitor of yours, we’ve got a sturdy table ready to hold it up and show you the ten fastest wide receivers in Madden NFL 23:
Player | Team | SPD | OVR | ACC | AGI | COD |
Tyreek Hill | Miami Dolphins | 99 | 97 | 99 | 98 | 99 |
Jameson Williams (R) | Detroit Lions | 98 | 78 | 95 | 94 | 94 |
Quez Watkins | Philadelphia Eagles | 98 | 76 | 95 | 86 | 84 |
Jaylen Waddle | Miami Dolphins | 97 | 84 | 97 | 97 | 94 |
Mecole Hardman | Kansas City Chiefs | 97 | 79 | 96 | 92 | 87 |
Marquise Brown | Arizona Cardinals | 97 | 84 | 94 | 96 | 92 |
Anthony Schwartz | Cleveland Browns | 96 | 69 | 95 | 86 | 85 |
Robbie Anderson | Carolina Panthers | 96 | 82 | 93 | 83 | 84 |
Marquise Goodwin | Seattle Seahawks | 96 | 74 | 96 | 89 | 86 |
Calvin Austin III (R) | Pittsburgh Steelers | 95 | 70 | 96 | 91 | 92 |
Taking everything into account, we can confidently deduce that Tyreek Hill and Jaylen Waddle are the two most dangerous wideouts in the game—almost to a comical degree. Only when the realization sets in that Hill and Waddle both play for the Miami Dolphins does the laughter stop.
From a raw speed standpoint, you’re really not going to find a bad option here. The same can be argued for acceleration, though if we were to be picky —and we will be— Marquise Brown and Robbie Anderson both find themselves on the wrong side of 95. Shape up, fellas.
Where this begins to get really interesting is in the agility category, as we’re greeted with quite the range starting at Hill (98) and concluding with Anderson (83). In fact, agility is the reason Pittsburgh’s rookie Calvin Austin III (91) edges out New England’s fellow newcomer Tyquan Thornton (82) on this list. Plus, I mean, we don’t have to acknowledge the Patriots all the time.
Well that’s that, folks. When it comes to the fastest wide receivers in Madden NFL 23, the Miami Dolphins are downright terrifying. If you’re in the mood for a challenge, we suggest taking the Cleveland Browns, benching Deshaun Watson for 11 games, and seeing how long it takes to get fed up with chucking it to Anthony Schwartz with gosh knows who.
