EA Sports reveals ten highest rated quarterbacks in Madden NFL 24
EA Sports wrapped up a week of reveals this week with the highest-rated quarterbacks in Madden NFL 24. The list features the best and highest-paid players in the league.
The Madden ratings, which are determined by taking the average overall score for each player based on 43 skill categories, are updated before the new season and during the season. Pre-orders for the game are currently underway with the release scheduled for Aug. 15.
Here’s how the Madden NFL 24 quarterback ratings shook out with just one quarterback receiving a perfect 99.
Madden NFL 24 Top-10 Quarterback Rankings
- Patrick Mahomes, 99 – Kansas City Chiefs
- Joe Burrow, 95 – Cincinnati Bengals
- Josh Allen, 94 – Buffalo Bills
- Lamar Jackson, 91 – Baltimore Ravens
- Jalen Hurts, 88 – Philadelphia Eagles
- Justin Herbert, 87 – Los Angeles Chargers
- Dak Prescott, 87 – Dallas Cowboys
- Aaron Rodgers, 86 – New York Jets
- Kirk Cousins, 84 – Minnesota Vikings
- Tua Tagovailoa, 83 – Miami Dolphins
The quarterbacks ranked from 11-20 are Trevor Lawrence, Geno Smith, Jared Goff, Kyler Murray, Derek Carr, Deshaun Watson, Jimmy Garopollo, Russell Wilson, Ryan Tannehill and Justin Fields.
Almost every quarterback with a top-10 rating in this year’s Madden game led their teams to the playoffs last season, with the exception of Aaron Rodgers. The four-time NFL MVP is now trying to take the Jets to their first playoff run since 2010.
Analyzing the ratings by tier, it appears the Madden decision-makers view Mahomes, Burrow, Allen and Jackson as the most elite. Hurts, Herbert, Prescott and Rodgers trail slightly in the second tier.
Other notable ratings include Kenny Pickett at 73 and Jordan Love at 70. Rookies C.J. Stroud and Bryce Young were given a 73 and 74, respectively.
Patrick Mahomes receives third perfect rating
Chiefs quarterback and two-time Super Bowl winner Patrick Mahomes earned his third perfect rating on Madden this week.
He’s led the league in passing yards for the last five seasons, totaling nearly 24,000 yards and 192 passing touchdowns.
Mahomes is the fifth and final member of the “99 club,” joining DT Aaron Donald, TE Travis Kelce, WR Justin Jefferson and RG Zack Martin.
Mahomes’ teammate, Travis Kelce, made history with his fourth entry into the “99 club.” It’s a new high for tight ends.
Meanwhile, Aaron Donald’s seventh perfect rating moved him past Peyton Manning, making him the leader in the clubhouse.
History was also made by Zack Martin who was the first guard with a perfect Madden rating since 2003.
Vikings star Justin Jefferson entered the “99 club” for the first time in his career after leading the league in receiving yards for the past three seasons.
