Madden 22: Top Ten Tight Ends Revealed


The wait is over! EA's Madden 22 ratings reveal week is in full swing, and they have now revealed the top ten tight ends in the game.

Here's who made the cut, including one player that earned one of five 99 Club spots!

Which Tight End made the 99 Club?

Kansas City Chiefs fans were elated to hear their favorite tight end since Tony Gonzales made the 99 Club. Travis Kelce, who's in a league all on his own in the position, made the 99 Club again in Madden 22.

The Kansas City tight end is deserving of the rating, amassing over 1,400 yards in the 2020 season. He also broke the record for most consecutive 1,000 yard receiving seasons by a tight end.

As a result, Kelce leads the Madden 22 tight end ratings by a large margin.
