We're rolling right along into Madden season as the pre-release hype is building higher and higher. Madden 23 will be the first title in the series after the death of John Madden, so it's fully expected that game developers EA Sports will be going above and beyond to make this year's Madden a memorable one.
To help set the stage for the upcoming drop, EA has been unveiling the top 10 players at various position groups. Running Backs are always important to Madden gameplay, and many are among the most popular players in the NFL. Let's have a look at the Top 10 Running Backs in Madden 23 after the recent ratings reveal.

Madden 23 Top 10 Running Backs
- Derrick Henry - Tennessee Titans - 97 OVR
- Nick Chubb - Cleveland Browns - 96 OVR
- Christian McCaffrey - Carolina Panthers - 96 OVR
- Jonathan Taylor - Indianapolis Colts - 95 OVR
- Dalvin Cook - Minnesota Vikings - 94 OVR

Many fans were shocked to see Jonathan Taylor at 4th on the list after his outstanding 2021-2022 campaign. However, this is fairly typical of EA Sports to be a bit slower to shift up the rankings too drastically after just one season leading the league in rushing. It also seemed a bit of a surprise to see Alvin Kamara at only 90 OVR, though he is coming off an injury-riddled campaign that saw him unavailable for large stretches of time.
That's everything you need to know now about the Top 10 Running Backs in Madden 23. We'll be sure to keep you up to date with all the latest ratings reveals as they continue to become available.
