With two weeks of the 2025 NFL season behind us, Madden NFL 26’s ratings are beginning to take shape. Thirty of the league’s 32 teams saw at least one player’s overall rating change in the game’s latest patch, with some teams seeing five or six players moving up or down the ratings scale.
The biggest gains from the latest Madden NFL patch include Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Puka Nacua, who rises to 90 overall from 88 one week ago, and Cincinnati Bengals defensive end Trey Hendrickson, who now sports at 93 overall rating. Other notable players gaining points including Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts rising to 87 overall, Los Angeles Chargers quarterback Justin Herbert jumping to 88, and Herbert’s Charger teammate Derwin James hitting a 94 overall rating.
Among the biggest drops this week is Miami Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa, who drops four points to 78 overall, and New York Giants quarterback Russell Wilson, who dropped two points to 74 overall despite a productive Week 2 game in Dallas. Other drops include Denver Broncos quarterback Bo Nix also dropping to 78, while Detroit Lions defensive end Aidan Hutchinson slips to 92 overall.
