Fastest Wide Receivers in Madden 26

Having a fast wide receiver (WR) can be the difference between falling short of a first-down and making serious progress down the field. By being able to burst away from rushing defensive players after making a catch, or simply speeding towards the end zone to get on the end of a Hail Mary, speed is one of the most valuable attributes a receiver can have in Madden NFL 26.

While this article will focus on the Speed stat for wide receivers in Madden NFL 26 to determine which are the quickest on the field, other stats can play a part in determining how fast they feel to use in the game. As such, we've included them in the table below.

The fastest wide receiver in Madden 26 is Kansas City Chiefs' Xavier Worthy, who is the only WR with a 99 Speed rating.

The 15 fastest wide receivers in Madden 26 are in the table below.

As such, the list above ranks the players by their Speed stat first and foremost, with Agility and Change of Direction stats being used as tiebreakers.

If you're starting with a fantasy draft in Madden 26's Franchise mode, picking up some of the fastest wide receivers can help give your offense a real boost.

Which NFL Team Has the Fastest Wide Receivers in Madden 26?

While the Las Vegas Raiders and Green Bay Packers have two wide receivers in the top 15 in the table below, the Miami Dolphins have the fastest wide receiving department in the league according to Madden 26's stats. The combination of Jalen Waddle and Tyreek Hill offers the Dolphins explosive speed that's unmatched in the league, and with QB Tua Tagovailoa capable of making some big throws, there's always the potential for some huge yardage and exciting plays in the receiving corps.

If you transfer your College Football 26 Road to Glory player to Madden 26's Superstar mode, and they are a receiver, you might be able to strengthen another team's receiving corp and make them the fastest in the game. However, this would only apply to the Superstar mode and not all game modes.
