From the dependable possession targets to the big-play game-changers, this year’s top wide receivers have shown us what it takes to dominate on the outside. Some have been essential to their team’s success, pulling off clutch catches and racking up yards, while others are still, shall we say, trying to find their rhythm.
Let’s break down and rank all 32 starting wide receivers across the league from worst to first.
Who are the top-ranking wide receivers in the NFL after week 10?
32. Tampa Bay Buccaneers: Rakim Jarrett (Last Week #30)
With Mike Evans and Chris Godwin still out, a lot has been asked of Rakim Jarrett. This week, he didn’t have many answers, though, as he finished with just two catches for 10 yards.
31. Jacksonville Jaguars: Brian Thomas Jr. (Last Week #31)
Brian Thomas Jr. and Mac Jones were on two different pages today. The talented, young receiver managed a meager two receptions for 12 yards in the loss.
30. Los Angeles Chargers: Joshua Palmer (Last Week #24)

Another tough game for Joshua Palmer, who managed just one catch for 36 yards.
29. Chicago Bears: DJ Moore (Last Week #29)
Another weak showing from DJ Moore, who is looking more and more like he has quit this season. He finished the game with three catches for 24 yards.
28. New England Patriots: DeMario Douglas (Last Week #32)
DeMario Douglas was good but not great on Sunday, as he hauled in four catches for 50 yards.
27. Carolina Panthers: Xavier Legette (Last Week #14)
Xavier Legette was quiet this week in Germany, catching just three passes for 40 yards in the win.

26. Las Vegas Raiders (bye): Jakobi Meyers (Last Week #19)
It hasn’t helped Jakobi Meyers that there has been mediocre quarterbacking at best and that his running mate Davante Adams got shipped out of town, putting more opposing secondary attention on him.
25. Kansas City Chiefs: DeAndre Hopkins (Not Ranked)
It is safe to say that Hopkins has supplanted rookie Xavier Worthy as one of the Chiefs’ top-option wide receivers. The vet made a couple of critical catches for KC on Sunday, finishing with 56 yards in the dramatic victory.
24. Green Bay Packers (bye): Romeo Doubs (Last Week #22)
Romeo Doubs’s ability to stretch the field has added a new dimension to the Packers’ aerial attack and does well in complementing Josh Jacobs and that potent ground game.
23. Dallas Cowboys: CeeDee Lamb (Last Week #9)
CeeDee Lamb had an uncharacteristically bad game without Dak under center. He caught six passes for 21 yards and had a touchdown fall right through his hands.
22. Arizona Cardinals: Marvin Harrison Jr. (Last Week #26)
Nice afternoon for the rookie receiver. Harrison hauled in all five targets for 54 yards and a touchdown.
21. New York Giants: Malik Nabers (Last Week #17)
Malik Nabers had another relatively quiet week, catching six passes for 50 yards.
20. San Francisco 49ers: Deebo Samuel (Last Week #15)
Deebo was good but not great in Week 10, catching six passes on seven targets for only 68 yards.
19. Los Angeles Rams: Puka Nacua (Last Week #25)
Now that Puka Nacua is fully healthy, he is proving again why he is one of the best young wideouts in the game today.
18. Indianapolis Colts: Alec Pierce (Not Ranked)
Alec Pierce stepped in admirably with Michael Pittman Jr. injured, hauling in four of seven passes for 81 yards and a touchdown from Joe Flacco.
17. Miami Dolphins: Tyreek Hill (Last Week #18)
The return of Tua has not resulted in a massive boon in production for Tyreek Hill, but one of the NFL’s most popular wide receivers is starting to get back into a groove with his QB1.
16. Atlanta Falcons: Drake London (Last Week #20)
Drake London had a strong showing in Week 10, hauling in eight catches for 97 yards.
15. Buffalo Bills: Mack Hollins (Not Ranked)
With Keon Coleman sidelined by a wrist injury, Mack Hollins stepped up big for Buffalo, hauling in four catches for 86 yards.
14. Houston Texans: Tank Dell (Last Week #4)
Tank Dell did his best to stand in for Nico Collins and Stefon Diggs as the Texans’ number-one option but only managed to snag five catches for 39 yards.
13. Baltimore Ravens: Zay Flowers (Last Week #5)
Quiet game for Zay Flowers on Thursday Night Football, as the speedy wideout finished with just four catches for 34 yards.
12. Pittsburgh Steelers: George Pickens (Last Week #13)
George Pickens looks like a new man with Russell Wilson under center. He caught five of seven targets for 91 yards and a touchdown.
11. New Orleans Saints: Marquez Valdes-Scantling (Not Ranked)
With Chris Olave out, MVS rose to the occasion in a major way, putting the “boom” of his boom-or-bust designation on full display. He caught just three passes, but they went for 109 yards and two touchdowns as he led the way for New Orleans offensively.
10. New York Jets: Garrett Wilson (Last Week #2)
Garrett Wilson led the way for all Jets wide receivers this week, but sadly, that didn’t amount to much with their anemic offense. He caught just five passes for 41 yards.
9. Cleveland Browns (bye): Cedric Tillman (Last Week #8)
The receiving corps has been underwhelming overall for Cleveland for most of the season, but it looks like Cedric Tillman and Jameis have started to find some strong rapport.
8. Denver Broncos: Courtland Sutton (Last Week #7)
Courtland Sutton had a nice afternoon, hauling in six catches for 70 yards and a score from his rookie quarterback, Bo Nix.
7. Tennessee Titans: Calvin Ridley (Last Week #16)
Calvin Ridley had another big game this week. One of the league’s talented young wide receivers caught five passes, two of which were touchdowns, for 84 yards.
6. Seattle Seahawks (bye): Jaxon Smith-Njigba (Last Week #3)
With DK Metcalf out injured, the young wide receiver has really come into his own, providing more optionality for Geno Smith and the Seattle offense going forward.
5. Detroit Lions: Amon-Ra St. Brown (Last Week #12)
Amon-Ra St. Brown was impressive yet again on Sunday Night Football, hauling in six catches for 60 yards and a critical score.
4. Philadelphia Eagles: A.J. Brown (Last Week #10)
A.J. Brown had a big game on Sunday, snagging five receptions for 109 yards.
3. Washington Commanders: Terry McLaurin (Last Week #6)
Sunday was another strong performance for Terry McLaurin, who hauled in five catches on six targets for 113 yards.
2. Minnesota Vikings: Justin Jefferson (Last Week #1)
Justin Jefferson was quiet this afternoon, though it was not for a lack of trying. Darnold went his way nine times, but he caught just five of them for 48 yards.
1. Cincinnati Bengals: Ja'Marr Chase (Last Week #11)
Wow. What a game for Chase. 11 catches for 264 yards and three scores—it is tough to do much better than that.
