Tyreek Hill of Miami Dolphins named No. 1 in 'Top 100 Players of 2024' countdown

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Tyreek Hill was revealed Friday night as the best player in the NFL as voted on by his peers in NFL Network's annual countdown of the league's top 100 players.

Hill is the first wide receiver, and fourth non-quarterback (joining Adrian Peterson, J.J. Watt and Aaron Donald), and to be ranked No. 1 in the top 100 countdown, which is in its 14th season.

Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson, San Francisco 49ers running back Christian McCaffrey, Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes and Cleveland Browns defensive end Myles Garrett rounded out the top five.

Hill's league-leading 1,799 yards receiving in 2023 were a career high for the eight-time Pro Bowler and five-time All-Pro selection. Hill has surpassed 1,000 yards receiving in six of his eight NFL seasons. His 13 touchdown receptions also led the NFL in 2023, which was the third season he scored double-digit touchdowns.

In all, there were 20 wide receivers on the Top 100 list for 2024, the most of any position ahead of linebackers (17) and quarterbacks (16).
