Madden NFL 26 Best Players and 99 Club Revealed with Full Top 50 Ratings The latest Madden 26 player ratings are here, with Ja’Marr Chase, Josh Allen, and Saquon Barkley leading the pack in this year’s elite 99 Club

The Madden NFL 26 season kicked off with seven players in the prestigious 99 Club, marking a dramatic shake-up from last year’s roster. Gone are familiar faces like Patrick Mahomes, Tyreek Hill, and Travis Kelce — replaced by a new generation of dominant playmakers.

The Madden 26 99 Club includes:

Ja'Marr Chase (WR, Cincinnati Bengals)
Josh Allen (QB, Buffalo Bills)
Justin Jefferson (WR, Minnesota Vikings)
Lamar Jackson (QB, Baltimore Ravens)
Lane Johnson (RT, Philadelphia Eagles)
Myles Garrett (RE, Cleveland Browns)
Saquon Barkley (HB, Philadelphia Eagles)

That means none of last year’s 99 Club members — including Mahomes, Kelce, McCaffrey, Hill, and Trent Williams — made a repeat appearance this season.

🏆 The Battle for the Top Spot

This year’s Madden 26 rankings are defined by a generational shift — where rising stars like Ja’Marr Chase, Josh Allen, and Saquon Barkley are replacing veteran icons who have dominated the ratings for years.

While Lamar Jackson’s early-season injury had some fans worried about the “Madden Curse,” the rest of the 99 Club has remained healthy and dominant heading into the holiday stretch.

🔮 Final Thoughts

From offensive juggernauts like Jefferson and Barkley to defensive anchors like Garrett and Lane Johnson, Madden 26 features one of the most balanced top 50 lists in recent memory.

With rating updates rolling out throughout the season, it’ll be interesting to see who stays elite — and who drops off as new breakout stars emerge.
