The Miami Dolphins have the fastest wide receiver and the fastest running back in Madden 23. Former 49ers back Raheem Mostert has a 95 Speed rating, separating him from the rest of the pack.
Other notable names also in the top ten include one of Mostert’s former teammates in Matt Breida, Tony Pollard, All-Pro running back Jonathan Taylor, and one of the members of the 2,000 yard club in Derrick Henry. Henry punishes opponents with his power, but he also has a ton of speed. Henry received a 93 Speed rating, tying him with five other backs in Madden NFL 23.
