This marks the second consecutive season that Worthy earned the title of "fastest player" in Madden. The 23-year-old wideout ran the quickest 40-yard dash in the history of the NFL Combine at 4.21 seconds and is widely regarded as one of the league's premier speed merchants.
Worthy was the only offensive player in the league to garner a 99 overall speed rating in Madden this year. He was rated ahead of Detroit Lions stars Jahmyr Gibbs and Jameson Williams (98), as well as Jacksonville Jaguars star Brian Thomas Jr., Dallas Cowboys star KaVontae Turpin and Los Angeles Chargers star Brenen Thompson (97).
The young speedster will get the chance to show his unparalleled speed on the field yet again once the 2026 NFL season commences in September.
