RUN FOR IT: Nick Chubb continues to rise and launches as third best this year

One that is always controversial will once again be Christian McCaffrey, as he's been very highly rated despite not having played a proper season since 2019.

McCaffrey went down due to injuries in both 2020 and 2021, but he was still the highest rated running back at launch in Madden 22.

King Henry's dominance was enough to earn him the top spot this year, though many fans may feel slighted that Jonathan Taylor is fourth considered the numbers he put up during the 2021 season.
