Top 5 quarterbacks with highest speed ratings in Madden NFL 23 ft. Lamar Jackson and Josh Allen

Madden NFL 23 has officially released all the player ratings for this year's version of the mega-popular video game franchise. In addition to placing an overall rating on each NFL player, an individual rating is also given for all of their skills and attributes. This is based on how they have performed on the real-life football field, in an attempt to make the game as realistic as possible.

Speed is one of the most important attributes for quarterbacks in Madden. Fast quarterbacks allow users to be more creative in their offensive styles while putting an extreme amount of pressure on opposing defenses. Here are the five highest speed ratings handed out to quarterbacks in Madden NFL 23.

#5 - Josh Allen (89)

Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen

Josh Allen has one of the most unique skillsets of any quarterback in the entire league. He is one of the fastest and best rushing quarterbacks while also having one of the strongest arms, which has proven to be a lethal combination.

Madden NFL 23 has reflected this skillset in Allen's ratings. HIs 89 speed is among the top five quarterbacks and he is the only player in the game to receive a 99 rating for throwing power. He is also the fourth-highest rated overall quarterback with a 92 rating.

#4 - Justin Fields (90)

Chicago Bears quarterbacks Justin Fields

Justin Fields is one of only four quarterbacks in Madden 23 to receive a 90 or higher speed rating. He earned his rating by showing impressive mobility in college with the Ohio State Buckeyes and during his rookie season with the Chicago Bears.

Fields received the highest speed rating of any quarterback who was a rookie during the 2021 NFL season. His 74 overall rating ranks third among last year’s rookies and 24th among all quarterbacks.

#2 (tied) - Kyler Murray (92)

Arizona Cardinals quarterback Kyler Murray

Kyler Murray is tied for the second highest speed rating among quarterbacks in Madden NFL 23 with an impressive 92. He is one of only three quarterbacks in the game to receive a speed rating that exceeds a 90, making his legs a dangerous weapon.

Murray also received a strong 95 acceleration rating as well as a 93 agility rating, making him difficult to tackle in the open field. His acceleration and agility are both the second-highest among all quarterbacks in the game. His 84 overall rating ranks 11th.
