Have you wondered how the 2022 NFL Players have been ranked based off their stats? Well here are the yop 10 ranked professional football players ranked from number 10 to number one.
#1: Aaron Donald of the Los Angeles Rams
Aaron Donald plays defensive tackle for the Los Angeles Rams. Donald made one of the best plays in his career during Super Bowl LVI when he broke through the offensive line and made a game ending play to have earned the Los Angeles Rams’ championship victory. Pro Bowl selections in 8 seasons and 7 First Team All Pro honors. 3× NFL Defensive Player of the Year Awards. 98 career sacks (for an average of 12.25 per year).
#2: Tom Brady of Tampa Bay Buccaneers
Tom Brady is the quarterback of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, and former quarterback of the New England Patriots. Brady has an unbeatable resume and still helms the reins for an uber-competitive Tampa Bay Bucs squad that won Super Bowl LV in 2021. In 2021, Brady led the league in passing yards and touchdowns. In 2022, the Bucs will run it back in what will be a weak NFC South.
#3 Aaron Rodgers of The Green Bay Packers
After sixteen seasons in Green Bay, the 10x Pro Bowler and four-time MVP can still sling it — and efficiently at that, having led the NFL in passer rating last season. And it looks like Green Bay was willing to cough up the Rodgers rate to keep their man in the cheese state, hoping one last hurrah (or two) with their star QB/WR duo can get the Packers another Super Bowl, after finishing 1st in the NFC in 2021. With Tom Brady and Drew Brees retiring in successive seasons, and Russell Wilson headed to Denver, Rodgers is pretty unquestionably the best and most experienced big game quarterback in a pretty wide open NFC in 2022. Surely, it’ll either be the Packers or the defending champs.
#4: TJ Watt of The Pittsburgh Steelers
#5: Cooper Kupp of The Los Angeles Rams
Rams wide receiver Cooper Kupp led the NFL in receptions, receiving yards, receiving touchdowns, yards after the catch, and first down catches in 2021. If you won your fantasy football league, Kupp was probably the reason why. Game after game, Kupp backed up excellent stats with big plays for the Super Bowl winning Rams team, earning himself Super Bowl MVP. You could easily make an argument that Kupp is the best wide receiver in the NFL right now.
#6: Davante Adams of The Los Vegas Raiders
Nobody’s probably ever been more content to get franchise tagged than Davante Adams on the same day Aaron Rodgers announced he’s staying in Green Bay. For Adams, with two straight First Team All-Pro selections, five straight Pro Bowls, and a 2020 NFL receiving touchdowns leading season, how could there be more welcome news than the opportunity to link back up with the QB who has given Adams a turnkey NFL career. Especially after months of concern about who Adams would be catching balls from in 2022. No cap, Adam is a true WR1 in a pass-catcher-by-committee-league. He’s a guaranteed 1k yards and 10 TDs every year he laces them up. Now with Rodgers back in 2022, the explosive QB/WR duo can hopefully get the Packers back to the Super Bowl, after a solid first place NFC regular season finish in 2021.
#7: Josh Allen of The Buffalo Bills
It had to sting for Josh Allen to sit at home watching the Super Bowl, knowing how close his Bills were this season, following a tight loss to Kansas City in the second round of the NFL playoffs. But the two-time Pro Bowler has plenty to be proud of, as the Bills franchise record holder for regular season passing yards and touchdowns in addition to the first NFL quarterback to have a touchdown-scoring drive on every offensive possession of a game. How’s that for one of the best quarterbacks in the NFL right now?
#8: Patrick Mahomes of The Kansas City Chiefs
The Super Bowl LIV MVP and Champion is one of the funnest NFL players to watch in 2022. With an NFL MVP and Offensive Player of the Year Award already under his belt, the fifth year pro is the future of the NFL at the quarterback position. Mahomes rocket arm and undeniable leadership will one day have his name atop lists of the All Time greats.
#9: Johnathan Taylor of The Indianapolis Colts
2021 was quite the coming out party for the former second-round pick running back out of Wisconsin. Taylor led the entire NFL in rushing yards and rushing touchdowns, while netting a First-team All-Pro selection, a Pro Bowl, a Bert Bell Award, and a FedEx Ground Player of the Year Award. The former two-time Doak Walker Award winner is officially living up to his college hype, after tying the record for most consecutive games with at least 100 rushing yards and a rushing touchdown (8) in 2021 (also held by LaDainian Tomlinson). In 2021, the second-year pro also became the youngest player in NFL history with at least 2,000 scrimmage yards (2,171) and 20 scrimmage touchdowns (20) in a single season. In 2021 alone, he set ten Indianapolis Colts franchise records. This man is incredible!
#10: Ja’Marr Chase of The Cincinatti Bengals
One year after WR Justin Jefferson set just about every rookie receiving record in the book, leave it to his old college teammate Ja’Marr Chase to come in and smash them all. While the pair of receivers were indubitably explosive in college, leading LSU to the 2019 National Championship, Ja’Marr Chase has lit NFL cornerbacks on fire this year with the help of their old pal QB Joe Burrow – including an insane 46-yard catch in the Super Bowl.
