Chase has made the Top 100 every year since 2022, when he was coming off a rookie season in which he racked up 1,455 yards and 13 touchdowns to help the Bengals reach the Super Bowl.

Last year marked the high point for Chase on the list thus far at No. 4 overall. Despite slipping 12 spots going into 2026, he remains as good as any receiver in the NFL.

Chase finished 2025 with 125 receptions, 1,412 yards and eight touchdowns. It was his third consecutive season with at least 140 targets, 100 catches and 1,200 yards.

Since entering the NFL, Chase ranks second among all wide receivers in receptions, yards and touchdowns. The Bengals have scored at least 400 points in four of those five seasons.

Prior to the pairing of Chase and Joe Burrow, the Bengals had a total of five seasons with at least 400 points in their franchise history dating back to 1968.

Despite playing a position known for having a short shelf life in the NFL, Henry remains an extreme outlier. He finished the 2025 campaign with 1,595 rushing yards and 16 touchdowns in his age-31 season.

Only two players in NFL history have had more rushing yards in their age-31 season than Henry did. The five-time Pro Bowler has racked up 3,516 yards in two seasons with Baltimore after leaving the Tennessee Titans.

Looking ahead to 2026, the NFL record for most rushing yards by a player in their age-32 season is 1,333 set by Walter Payton in 1986. Henry has surpassed that total three times in the last four years.

Henry was one of three running backs last season with more than 1,000 yards after contact, along with Jonathan Taylor and Bijan Robinson.

There is a lot of intrigue around the Ravens for the upcoming season primarily due to the change in head coach with Jesse Minter replacing John Harbaugh, but the bones of what has made them successful remain in place.

Henry figures to be a huge part of the offense yet again until either he starts slowing down due to age or opposing defenses finally figure out a way to stop him.
