In Madden NFL 26, speed is a crucial attribute, regardless of the player’s position. This trait will significantly impact wide receivers, running backs, and defensive backs, but it also adds an extra layer to your offense when your quarterback can dash for long gains. Quarterbacks like Lamar Jackson and Jalen Hurts have thrived in their careers due to this ability. While precision passing is still vital at the quarterback position, mobile quarterbacks offer additional flexibility to your game plan. Here’s a list of the 25 quickest quarterbacks in Madden NFL 26.

Best Quarterbacks in Madden 26

In the discussion, it’s important to note that speed isn’t the sole factor when it comes to excelling as a quarterback. In Madden NFL 26, four standout players – Josh Allen (Buffalo Bills), Lamar Jackson (Baltimore Ravens), Joe Burrow (Cincinnati Bengals), and Patrick Mahomes (Kansas City Chiefs) – have all been rated 95 or above. Matt Stafford of the Los Angeles Rams, with an overall rating of 88, follows closely behind this elite quartet.
As a diehard fan here, if you’re on the hunt for a young talent to anchor your team’s future, the 22-year-old J.J. McCarthy from the Vikings is a solid choice with an OVR of 73. Of course, there are other promising prospects like C.J. Stroud (Texans), Caleb Williams (Bears), and Drake Maye (Patriots) who are a year older and have higher ratings, making them top-tier candidates too.
