Vote up the most accomplished wide receivers in the NFL right now.
Who is the best wide receiver in the NFL in 2022? In order to be one of the best wide receivers in the National Football League, pass catchers must learn their routes, shake off talented defenders, and most importantly, not drop the ball. Also known as the fastest and most agile players in the league, these are the best wide receivers in the NFL right now. But, who is the best wide receiver in 2022? Which 2022 wide receivers do you love?
When fans discuss the best wide receivers in the NFL this year, players like the Tyreek Hill and DeAndre Hopkins are usually in the mix for the best current wide receivers. In recent years, stars like Odell Beckham Jr., Davante Adams, and Mike Evans have all made a name for themselves with their stellar play on the field. The 2022 NFL season should see the return of All Pro wide receiver Michael Thomas, while recent breakout wide receivers Ja'Marr Chase and Justin Jefferson should put up big numbers.

Jefferson has been named to two Pro Bowls in his first two pro seasons, after putting up 196 catches, over 3,000 yards, and 17 TDs during that span. Jefferson has elite speed, elite hands, and just straight up balls as well as anyone. With new head coach Kevin O'Connell teaming up with his former protege Kirk Cousins, more explosive passing can be expected from the Vikings in 2022.
Breaking up Tyreek Hill and Patrick Mahomes feels like breaking up peanut butter and jelly. It's been such a staple the past few years, it was easy to take for granted how consistently excellent it truly is. Hill joined the Dolphins to create one of the fastest receiving corps in the NFL between he and Jaylen Waddle. They'll hope to catch passes from Tua - should he remain healthy. While one of the great QB/WR combos of all time is no more, hopefully Hill can elevate Miami's offense and hit on more big plays in 2022.
Diggs is the number one receiving playmaker in Buffalo, having notched 18 touchdowns over the last two years. Diggs is now at four straight seasons with 1,000+ receiving yards and with Josh Allen throwing him balls, a fifth could easily be in order.
Chase immediately made an impact by setting the rookie records for single-year and single-game receiving yards - breaking those set by his college teammate Justin Jefferson a year prior. Chase won Offensive Rookie of the Year en route to an appearance in Super Bowl LVI. So can it get more hyped than that?? Probably not. Big Year 2 incoming.
After eight glorious years in Green Bay, the 5x Pro Bowler joins a Las Vegas receiving corps which has starved for talent in recent years. Adams steps into the offense as the number one wideout, where he will work off with Hunter Renfrow in the slot. Derek Carr put up nearly 5,000 yards in 2021 and is likely salivating at the opportunity to throw balls to Adams this fall.
If you blinked last year, you would've missed CeeDee Lamb becoming the absolute man in Dallas last year. The third year pro put up 1k+ receiving yards while earning his first Pro Bowl nod. Lamb will be Dak Prescott's unquestioned number one target in 2022, so it'll be up to the former first round pick to prove he's up to it.
