by

Okay, so the Madden 26 ratings just got updated for Week 10 of the NFL season, and let me tell you, there were some big swings! Guys like Puka Nacua and Brock Bowers got some serious boosts to their overall ratings, which is awesome. But not everyone went up – a few players actually saw their ratings drop. I dug into the update to see exactly who got better and worse, and what the biggest changes were. It’s always good to know who’s heating up and cooling down in my virtual franchise!

Madden 26 Player Ratings Update For Week 10 – Biggest Winners & Losers

We’re seeing some great improvements in ratings halfway through the season since Madden 26 came out!

Did you see it coming?

— Madden NFL 26 (@EAMaddenNFL) November 7, 2025

Puka Nacua (WR), Los Angeles Rams – 95 OVR (+1)

Man, Nacua and Davante Adams are seriously ballin’ with Stafford at quarterback. That guy isn’t afraid to just let his best receivers cook! It had been almost a month since I last saw Nacua on the field, but he immediately made an impact – eight targets, seven catches for 95 yards and a touchdown! If he stays healthy, I think the Rams are gonna be a serious problem for everyone in the NFC this year.

Brock Bowers (TE), Las Vegas Raiders – 93 OVR (+2)

While last night’s game wasn’t a standout performance, this news came right before a game where he only had one reception against a strong Denver Broncos defense. The week before, he had a great game, catching 12 of 13 passes for 127 yards and three touchdowns. Despite the Las Vegas offense struggling, especially at quarterback, Bowers continues to play with the same impressive skill he showed as a rookie.

Drake London (WR), Atlanta Falcons – 92 OVR (+1)

Drake London has been a consistent target for the Falcons, with double-digit targets in four straight games. Despite a close loss to the Patriots, he had a strong performance, catching all three of Atlanta’s touchdowns and gaining 118 receiving yards. While London and running back Bijan Robinson show promise, the Falcons’ offense has generally struggled, averaging under 18 points per game through the first nine weeks of the season.

Jaxon Smith-Njigba, Seattle Seahawks – 92 OVR (+1)

Although JSN didn’t score any of Sam Darnold’s four touchdowns in their big win against the Commanders, he was still Seattle’s top receiver in terms of both catches and total yards. He consistently beat Washington’s defensive backs. Currently, JSN leads the NFL in receiving yards with 948 and is fifth in the league with 58 receptions. If he stays healthy, Seattle’s offense has the potential to be a serious contender in the playoffs.

Justin Herbert (QB), Los Angeles Chargers – 91 OVR (+1)

Man, Justin Herbert is having an incredible season. He’s second in the league with almost 2,400 passing yards and 18 touchdowns! It’s seriously impressive considering how banged up our offensive line has been – losing a guy like Joe Alt really hurts – and all the issues we’ve had at running back. He even threw a pick-six against Tennessee, but he shook it off and immediately led a touchdown drive to tie the game in under four minutes. I’m really excited to see how he finishes the season – he’s a beast!

Additionally, several other players received an increase to their Madden 26 Player Rating:

  • Denzel Ward – 93 OVR (+1)

Week 10 of the NFL season kicked off last night with a game between the Denver Broncos and the Raiders that many found incredibly dull. The Raiders started strong, scoring on their second possession and appearing to find a rhythm on offense. Unfortunately for Las Vegas, that was all they could manage, as the Broncos battled to score 10 points without a response.

But what else can you expect from Thursday Night Football?

Week 9 has some exciting games coming up! On Monday night, the Philadelphia Eagles play the Green Bay Packers in a key NFC showdown. While Philadelphia won both games against Green Bay last season, including in the playoffs, playing at Lambeau Field will be a tough challenge. See who Madden 26 predicts will win this weekend’s big game.
