Fastest QBs in Madden NFL 26: Lamar Jackson Tops the Speed Rankings Madden 26’s blazing-quick quarterbacks—see who outruns the competition behind center

⚡ Fastest Quarterbacks in Madden NFL 26

EA's official stats confirm that the quickest QBs on the virtual field are:

  • Lamar Jackson (Ravens)96 SPD (Speed)
  • Jalen Milroe (Seahawks)93 SPD
  • Justin Fields (Jets)92 SPD

Lamar keeps his Madden legacy alive—his speed rating matches his real-life agility, outpacing every QB in the roster. Milroe and Fields follow as mobile runners, situational threats on scrambles and designed QB rushes.


🧠 Why QB Speed Matters

  • Extended Playmaking: High-speed QBs break sacks, escape pressure, and turn scrambles into chunks of yards.
  • Read & React Gameplay: Speed opens up outside throwing lanes and beats aggressive defenders—especially on rollouts.
  • Archetype Synergy: Dual-threat or improviser-style quarterbacks benefit most from top-tier speed like Jackson’s.

✅ TL;DR

  • Lamar Jackson (96 SPD) Elite escape artist and playmaker. Perfect for broken plays, rollouts, and turning nothing into a touchdown.

  • Jalen Milroe (93 SPD) A smart dual-threat option who thrives in scramble-heavy schemes and RPOs.

  • Justin Fields (92 SPD) Skilled runner who excels at extending plays and beating defenders in the open field.
