Best Wide Receiver Duos in the NFL 2025 Power Rankings

Who has the best wide receiver duo in the NFL for 2025?

We recently ran a fan-voted “Last Man Standing” bracket tournament on Instagram and social media, where thousands of followers voted to eliminate the worst wide receiver duo in the NFL — round by round — until only one duo remained.

Alongside the fan results, here are my own personal rankings of all 32 wide receiver duos entering the 2025 NFL season. Each graphic includes how fans voted — and how my list compares based on talent, production, chemistry, scheme fit, and upside.

Whether you agree or disagree, this post gives you the complete breakdown of who truly deserves to be called the best WR duo in football.

Tetairoa McMillan & Adam Thielen ranked 32 in our 2025 NFL WR Duo Rankings.

32. Tetairoa McMillan & Adam Thielen – Carolina Panthers

Adam Thielen remains a trusted route-runner with soft hands, but at 34, his days of creating separation and stretching the field are behind him. He was solid in spurts during 2024, especially in the red zone, but couldn’t consistently carry the Panthers’ passing game on aging legs alone.

Tetairoa McMillan, the Panthers’ rookie second-round pick, has major upside with his size, body control, and catch radius — but he has yet to see the field. Until he logs meaningful snaps, this duo is built on one aging veteran and a complete unknown.

Bryce Young needs weapons badly, and Carolina is banking on McMillan developing quickly. But for now, this is the least proven duo in the NFL.

Jakobi Meyers & Jack Bech ranked 31 in our 2025 NFL WR Duo Rankings.

31. Jakobi Meyers & Jack Bech – Las Vegas Raiders

Jakobi Meyers quietly had a productive 2024 season, even with inconsistent quarterback play. He’s not a flashy receiver, but he’s one of the best in the league at working underneath zones, converting on third downs, and maintaining possession through contact. His reliability made him a steady presence in an otherwise chaotic Raiders offense.

Jack Bech, meanwhile, enters 2025 as a total unknown. The rookie from LSU has intriguing traits — solid frame, strong hands, and inside-outside versatility — but hasn’t yet logged a snap in the NFL. Until we see him on the field, his inclusion here is based purely on projection.

This duo has a modest floor thanks to Meyers, but without proven explosiveness or WR1 upside, they’re slotted near the bottom until Bech shows he belongs.

DK Metcalf & Roman Wilson ranked 30 in our 2025 NFL WR Duo Rankings.

30. DK Metcalf & Roman Wilson – Pittsburgh Steelers

DK Metcalf is still one of the league’s most physically imposing wideouts — a red-zone weapon with deep threat speed who draws constant attention. His 2024 production was solid if unspectacular, but he did his job and looks to replace George Pickens in a big way.

Roman Wilson, on the other hand, is still waiting for his NFL breakout. He saw the field briefly as a rookie but didn’t log any meaningful production. The upside is there — he brings short-area burst and toughness — but until it translates statistically, he remains a developmental piece.

This duo could take a leap, but for now, they rank near the bottom due to limited volume and projection-based value.

DK Metcalf – 2024-25 Stats

Stefon Diggs & Kyle Williams ranked 29 in our 2025 NFL WR Duo Rankings.

29. Stefon Diggs & Kyle Williams – New England Patriots

Stefon Diggs’ move to New England is an interesting one. With rising superstar Drake Maye at Quarterback, Diggs provides a much needed alpha receiver.

As for rookie Kyle Williams, it’s impossible to evaluate how he fits into the long-term plan. For now, he’s a question mark that keeps this duo near the bottom of the league rankings.

Even if Diggs can turn back the clock, New England’s wide receiver room is up in the air.

Calvin Ridley & Tyler Lockett ranked 28 in our 2025 NFL WR Duo Rankings.

28. Calvin Ridley & Tyler Lockett – Tennessee Titans

Calvin Ridley gave the Titans a spark in 2024, flashing the route-running and sideline control that made him a 1,000-yard receiver in previous years. While not as explosive as his prime Atlanta days, he still commanded attention on the outside and brought much-needed polish to a young passing game.

Tyler Lockett, now well into his 30s, played a limited but efficient role in his first season in Tennessee. He remained a reliable third-down target, and his ability to sit in zones and stay on the same page with quarterbacks helped Will Levis settle into rhythm when the protection held up.

Both Ridley and Lockett are savvy veterans who win with precision rather than raw athleticism at this stage. This isn’t a long-term pairing — but for now, their experience and skill make them a respectable floor-raising duo in a transitional offense.

Calvin Ridley – 2024-25 Stats

Jerry Jeudy & Cedric Tillman ranked 27 in our 2025 NFL WR Duo Rankings.

27. Jerry Jeudy & Cedric Tillman – Cleveland Browns

Jerry Jeudy continues to be one of the most technically refined route runners in the NFL — but his production has yet to match his potential. In 2024, he remained inconsistent week to week, flashing elite separation skills but struggling to find rhythm in a run-heavy Cleveland offense. The talent is there, but the impact hasn’t fully materialized.

Cedric Tillman, meanwhile, quietly showed growth in his second season. At 6’3”, 215 pounds, he gives the Browns a physical boundary presence who can work in tight windows and finish through contact. His six touchdowns in 2024 led the team and hinted at a growing role in the red zone.

This isn’t the flashiest duo, but with a more stable quarterback situation, their complementary styles — route polish and physicality — could finally click in 2025.

Jayden Reed & Matthew Golden ranked 26 in our 2025 NFL WR Duo Rankings.

26. Jayden Reed & Matthew Golden – Green Bay Packers

Jayden Reed quietly emerged as one of the most versatile weapons in the Packers’ offense during 2024. Whether lining up in the slot, outside, or even taking handoffs, he brought juice to a young receiving corps. His ability to make defenders miss after the catch made him a perfect safety valve for Jordan Love.

Rookie Matthew Golden brings even more upside to this group. Drafted for his big-play ability and toughness in traffic, Golden enters the NFL with a chance to immediately contribute. While he still has to earn his role, his tape out of Houston showed a polished skill set and a nose for the end zone.

This duo offers a mix of proven production and promising potential. If Golden lives up to expectations, Reed might finally have a running mate to stretch the field and open up Matt LaFleur’s offense.

Garrett Wilson & Allen Lazard ranked 25 in our 2025 NFL WR Duo Rankings.

25. Garrett Wilson & Allen Lazard – New York Jets

Garrett Wilson continues to prove he’s one of the most talented young receivers in football. Even in an offense that lacked consistency, he still posted over 1,100 yards and was a magnet for targets. His footwork, body control, and contested catch ability make him a true WR1 — one who will thrive if the Jets ever stabilize under center.

Allen Lazard, meanwhile, had an uneven 2024 campaign. While he brought his usual size and blocking ability to the perimeter, his production was streaky.

Wilson can win anywhere on the field, and but Lazard is a clear weakness for this duo.

Garrett Wilson – 2024-25 Stats

Courtland Sutton & Marvin Mims ranked 24 in our 2025 NFL WR Duo Rankings.

24. Courtland Sutton & Marvin Mims – Denver Broncos

Courtland Sutton reminded everyone why he was once viewed as a top-tier red zone threat. He led the Broncos in receiving touchdowns and looked revitalized under Sean Payton’s system — boxing out defenders and winning in contested catch situations with ease. His ability to high-point the football is still elite.

Marvin Mims provided the speed element Denver’s offense has lacked. While his usage wasn’t always consistent, Mims made the most of his targets with splash plays downfield and showed growth as a route-runner.

Sutton brings the veteran presence, Mims brings the explosiveness — and the scheme could finally unlock both with Nix making steps at QB.

Courtland Sutton – 2024-25 Stats

• Games Played: 17

Michael Pittman & Josh Downs ranked 23 in our 2025 NFL WR Duo Rankings.

23. Michael Pittman & Josh Downs – Indianapolis Colts

Michael Pittman continues to be the anchor of the Colts’ passing game — a big-bodied receiver who excels at shielding defenders and moving the chains. Even without gaudy touchdown numbers, he remained a top option for Anthony Richardson and played through a physical 2024 season, once again clearing 800 yards and nearly 70 catches.

Josh Downs emerged as a legitimate threat from the slot, bringing shiftiness, quick feet, and a knack for finding soft spots in zone coverage. His near-identical stat line to Pittman proved how vital he became to this offense, especially on third downs. Downs may not have WR1 upside, but he’s a perfect WR2 in a system built on timing.

Together, this duo gives Richardson the reliability he needs as he continues to develop. It’s a low-drama, high-output pairing that fits Indy’s blue-collar identity.

Marvin Harrison & Michael Wilson ranked 22 in our 2025 NFL WR Duo Rankings.

22. Marvin Harrison Jr. & Michael Wilson – Arizona Cardinals

Marvin Harrison Jr. entered the NFL with massive expectations — and while he didn’t completely dominate out of the gate, he showed flashes of elite ability that justify the hype. His route running, body control, and hands were as advertised. Harrison’s impact went beyond the box score, drawing double coverage and altering defensive schemes as a rookie.

Michael Wilson, often overlooked in the Cardinals’ offense, quietly put together a productive season of his own. His strong frame and sure hands made him an ideal chain-mover on the outside. He isn’t flashy, but he’s reliable — and that matters in an offense trying to stabilize under Kyler Murray.

This pairing may not have blown the roof off in 2024, but the building blocks are here. If Harrison takes the next step and Wilson continues to play his role, Arizona’s WR room is trending in the right direction.

Khalil Shakir & Keon Coleman ranked 21 in our 2025 NFL WR Duo Rankings.

21. Khalil Shakir & Keon Coleman – Buffalo Bills

The Bills began a new chapter in 2024 after parting ways with Stefon Diggs, and Khalil Shakir answered the call. He emerged as Buffalo’s most reliable target, operating primarily out of the slot but flashing outside ability too. His 76 receptions showed his value in the short-to-intermediate game, and his chemistry with Josh Allen grew every week.

Keon Coleman, Buffalo’s rookie second-round pick, brought physicality and red zone presence to a revamped WR room. Despite limited volume, he flashed strong hands and high-point ability in contested situations. His blend of size and athleticism gives the Bills a true jump-ball specialist to complement Shakir’s finesse.

It’s a transitional duo with upside — and if Allen continues to spread the ball, this could turn into one of the league’s more balanced pairings over time.

Khalil Shakir – 2024-25 Stats

Jauan Jennings & Brandon Aiyuk ranked 20 in our 2025 NFL WR Duo Rankings.

20. Jauan Jennings & Brandon Aiyuk – San Francisco 49ers

The 49ers’ passing game is built around timing, toughness, and efficiency — and this duo fits the bill. Jauan Jennings stepped up in a major way in 2024, earning a larger role in the offense and delivering career highs across the board. His toughness over the middle and ability to break tackles after the catch made him a key safety valve for Brock Purdy.

Brandon Aiyuk dealt with injuries throughout the year, but when healthy, he reminded everyone of his WR1 skillset. Aiyuk is one of the most fluid route-runners in football, capable of gaining separation against any coverage. Even in limited action, his impact on the field was immediate — drawing defensive attention and opening up the offense.

While this pairing didn’t have the combined numbers of other top duos due to Aiyuk’s missed time, they bring a level of physicality and explosiveness that makes them a nightmare to defend when fully healthy.

Jauan Jennings – 2024-25 Stats

Rashee Rice & Xavier Worthy ranked 19 in our 2025 NFL WR Duo Rankings.

19. Rashee Rice & Xavier Worthy – Kansas City Chiefs

The Chiefs doubled down on speed and explosiveness in 2024 — and it’s starting to pay off. Rashee Rice took a major step forward in his sophomore season, becoming Patrick Mahomes’ most trusted wideout. His toughness over the middle, quick feet, and ability to break tackles turned short throws into big plays. He’s now firmly established as the WR1 in Kansas City’s evolving offense.

Xavier Worthy, the Chiefs’ first-round rookie, brings world-class speed and field-stretching ability. Even as he developed his route tree and timing with Mahomes, Worthy’s presence alone demanded safety help and opened up opportunities for others. His deep speed will make him a nightmare on play-action and broken plays for years to come.

This pairing brings balance to Kansas City: Rice is the chain-mover with YAC juice, while Worthy threatens to go 80 yards on any snap. The ceiling here is as high as any duo in football.

Ladd McConkey & Quentin Johnston ranked 18 in our 2025 NFL WR Duo Rankings.

18. Ladd McConkey & Quentin Johnston – Los Angeles Chargers

The Chargers may have moved on from their veteran wideouts, but in 2024 they found a new identity with a more explosive, youthful duo. Rookie Ladd McConkey hit the ground running with one of the most efficient first-year campaigns in the league. His elite change-of-direction, precise timing, and clean hands made him a go-to target in Justin Herbert’s retooled offense.

Quentin Johnston, after a shaky rookie year, rebounded with much more polish and confidence. He improved dramatically in contested catch situations and finally looked comfortable in the system, especially downfield where he could utilize his size and athleticism.

This duo isn’t just about potential anymore — it’s a real threat. McConkey does the dirty work underneath, while Johnston stretches the field vertically. With Herbert at the helm, they could thrive for years to come.

DJ Moore & Rome Odunze ranked 17 in our 2025 NFL WR Duo Rankings.

17. DJ Moore & Rome Odunze – Chicago Bears

DJ Moore continues to be one of the most dependable wide receivers in football — a sharp route-runner with great hands and underrated physicality after the catch. In 2024, he once again led the Bears in receptions and receiving yards, playing through QB instability and still delivering WR1 production.

Enter Rome Odunze — Chicago’s top rookie pick and a future star in the making. He brings size, body control, and elite ball tracking to the Bears’ offense. While still finding his rhythm in the pros, Odunze’s flashes were undeniable.

With Caleb Williams taking over, this duo represents Chicago’s best shot at building a modern passing game. Moore brings the floor — Odunze might unlock the ceiling.

Malik Nabers & Wan’Dale Robinson ranked 16 in our 2025 NFL WR Duo Rankings.

16. Malik Nabers & Wan’Dale Robinson – New York Giants

Malik Nabers wasted no time proving he was NFL-ready. The Giants’ first-round pick immediately became their top offensive weapon in 2024, showcasing elite burst off the line, explosive breaks, and confident hands in traffic. Despite being a rookie, Nabers looked like a seasoned WR1 — and gave New York its first legitimate perimeter threat in years.

Wan’Dale Robinson quietly had one of the most underrated seasons in the league. His shiftiness and low center of gravity made him a nightmare in the slot, and he consistently moved the chains in tight coverage. While not flashy, Robinson’s ability to win in short-yardage situations paired perfectly with Nabers’ downfield explosiveness.

Together, they give the Giants rare balance: one receiver who can take the top off, and another who thrives underneath. If the quarterback play improves, this pairing could explode in 2025.

Malik Nabers – 2024-25 Stats

Drake London & Darnell Mooney ranked 15 in our 2025 NFL WR Duo Rankings.

15. Drake London & Darnell Mooney – Atlanta Falcons

Drake London finally got the quarterback support he needed in 2024 and made the most of it — delivering the kind of WR1 performance fans had been waiting for. With a massive catch radius and elite ball skills, London dominated in contested catch situations and became a true red zone weapon. His physicality at the top of routes makes him one of the most unguardable young receivers in the game.

Darnell Mooney, meanwhile, proved to be the perfect complement. His speed, fluid route running, and ability to separate horizontally opened up the field for Atlanta’s offense. Mooney bounced back in a big way, nearly reaching 1,000 yards and giving Michael Penix Jr. a reliable deep threat.

This is a duo with size, speed, and proven chemistry — and in 2025, they could be the foundation of one of the league’s most improved passing attacks.

Zay Flowers & Rashod Bateman ranked 14 in our 2025 NFL WR Duo Rankings.

14. Zay Flowers & Rashod Bateman – Baltimore Ravens

Zay Flowers gave the Ravens exactly what they hoped for — a dynamic, slippery receiver who can create separation on any route. In 2024, he became Lamar Jackson’s most consistent target, using elite short-area quickness and vision after the catch to rack up yardage and keep drives alive. He’s quickly emerging as a future star in the AFC.

Rashod Bateman, meanwhile, finally put together a full season. He added nine touchdowns and thrived in the red zone, flashing the contested catch ability that made him a first-round pick. While his production wasn’t gaudy in terms of volume, he was quietly one of the league’s more efficient WR2s.

This pairing is fast, physical, and growing more dangerous by the week — giving Baltimore the most reliable receiving duo of the Lamar Jackson era.

Chris Olave & Rashid Shaheed ranked 13 in our 2025 NFL WR Duo Rankings.

13. Chris Olave & Rashid Shaheed – New Orleans Saints

Chris Olave entered 2024 with sky-high expectations, but the Saints’ inconsistent quarterback play and his own health limited him to a quieter year. That said, his elite route running and vertical separation were still on full display — and when given time and targets, Olave looked like the future WR1 he’s been projected to be.

Rashid Shaheed made the most of his touches, showcasing his signature deep speed and special teams versatility. Despite limited volume, he found the end zone three times and remains one of the most dangerous vertical threats in the league. Defenses can’t sleep on him — one mistake, and it’s six points.

This duo is built around speed and route precision, but they’ll need more stable quarterback play, and to stay healthy, to fully unlock their potential in 2025.

12. Nico Collins & Christian Kirk – Houston Texans

Nico Collins officially made the leap in 2024. Emerging as C.J. Stroud’s top target, Collins combined elite size with improved route running and yards-after-catch ability to produce one of the most efficient seasons in the league. He gave Houston a legitimate WR1 presence, elevating the offense every time he was on the field.

Christian Kirk, on the other hand, had an injury-shortened year, but still showed flashes of his usual quickness and reliability.

If Kirk stays healthy, this duo will be one of the most polished and quarterback-friendly pairings in the AFC.

Brian Thomas Jr. & Travis Hunter ranked 11 in our 2025 NFL WR Duo Rankings.

11. Brian Thomas Jr. & Travis Hunter – Jacksonville Jaguars

The Jaguars took a bold step toward explosiveness by pairing breakout rookie Brian Thomas Jr. with the ultra-hyped two-way phenom Travis Hunter. Thomas Jr. immediately lived up to his first-round billing in 2024, carving up defenses with size, vertical burst, and red zone dominance. He gave Trevor Lawrence a true WR1 target to build around.

Travis Hunter, entering his rookie season, brings elite-level instincts and twitchy athleticism. While he’s still adjusting to the pro game after splitting time at WR and CB in college, his ball skills, acceleration, and ability to win in space make him one of the most anticipated offensive weapons of 2025.

This duo might be light on experience, but the upside is absolutely massive — and could help reshape Jacksonville’s identity moving forward.

Terry McLaurin & Deebo Samuel ranked 10 in our 2025 NFL WR Duo Rankings.

10. Terry McLaurin & Deebo Samuel – Washington Commanders

Terry McLaurin and Deebo Samuel form one of the most physical and versatile receiver pairings in the NFL. McLaurin has quietly been one of the most consistent WR1s in the league for years — dependable, tough, and constantly producing despite QB chaos. Samuel brings an entirely different dynamic. As a hybrid playmaker, he not only racks up yards after the catch but also lines up in the backfield, stressing defenses in unique ways.

Together, they give Washington a rare blend of explosiveness, grit, and scheme flexibility — and with emerging superstar Jayden Daniels now under center, the ceiling might be higher than ever.

Jaxon Smith-Njigba & Cooper Kupp ranked 9 in our 2025 NFL WR Duo Rankings.

9. Jaxon Smith-Njigba & Cooper Kupp – Seattle Seahawks

This duo is all about precision and separation. Jaxon Smith-Njigba came into his own in 2024, leading Seattle in both receptions and yards. His short-area quickness and feel for space make him a perfect fit for a pass-heavy scheme — and he’s just getting started.

Cooper Kupp, when healthy, is still one of the most polished route-runners in football. Though injuries have taken a toll, his timing, hands, and ability to manipulate leverage remain elite. Together, JSN and Kupp give the Seahawks a dependable, technical tandem that thrives in the short and intermediate game — perfect for rhythm-based passing attacks.

Mike Evans & Chris Godwin ranked 8 in our 2025 NFL WR Duo Rankings.

8. Mike Evans & Chris Godwin – Tampa Bay Buccaneers

Mike Evans and Chris Godwin remain one of the NFL’s most reliable veteran duos. Evans, now with over a decade of dominance under his belt, refuses to slow down — posting yet another 1,000-yard season while continuing to be a red zone nightmare. His ability to win on the perimeter, shield defenders, and finish through contact keeps him in elite company.

Godwin battled through injuries in 2024, but when on the field, he provided clutch catches and route consistency from the slot. His versatility — working both inside and outside — helps keep defenses honest and makes life easier for Baker Mayfield or whoever lines up under center.

Even with age and injuries creeping in, this duo still gets open, makes plays, and finds the end zone. Not many tandems bring more touchdown equity per target.

Tyreek Hill & Jaylen Waddle ranked 7 in our 2025 NFL WR Duo Rankings.

7. Tyreek Hill & Jaylen Waddle – Miami Dolphins

No wide receiver duo in football threatens defenses with raw speed like Tyreek Hill and Jaylen Waddle. Hill continues to be one of the most feared players in the NFL — a blur with the ball in his hands who can score from anywhere on the field. Even in his 30s, he hasn’t lost a step, still commanding double coverage and flipping gameplans.

Waddle’s production dipped in 2024, but his efficiency in space and ability to separate on short routes still make him a dangerous complement. He remains a YAC specialist who’s one clean release away from a game-breaking gain. While both dealt with offensive inconsistency late in the year, this pair still possesses the type of explosiveness most teams dream about.

If Tua or any Dolphins quarterback can stay healthy and consistent, expect this ranking to climb fast in 2025.

Amon-Ra St. Brown & Jameson Williams ranked 6 in our 2025 NFL WR Duo Rankings.

6. Amon-Ra St. Brown & Jameson Williams – Detroit Lions

Amon-Ra St. Brown has solidified himself as one of the best all-around receivers in the league — a technician in the slot, a volume monster, and the emotional engine of the Lions’ offense. He’s coming off a career year in 2024 where he did everything from move the chains to burn defenses in the red zone. His hands, vision, and toughness over the middle are elite.

Paired with him is Jameson Williams, who finally showed what made him a first-round pick. In 2024, he stayed healthy and brought consistent deep speed and big-play upside. His ability to stretch the field and force safeties back perfectly complements St. Brown’s underneath dominance.

This duo gives Detroit one of the league’s most balanced WR pairings — precision, volume, and explosiveness — and they were a huge reason for the Lions’ top-5 offense last season.

Ceedee Lamb & George Pickens ranked 5 in our 2025 NFL WR Duo Rankings.

5. Ceedee Lamb & George Pickens – Dallas Cowboys

Ceedee Lamb is still firmly in the conversation for top three wide receivers in the NFL. Lamb has been unguardable from the slot or outside, routinely torching defenses with his footwork, route sharpness, and after-catch ability.

George Pickens, acquired in the offseason, gives Dallas something they’ve lacked — a true outside alpha to complement Lamb. Pickens brings unmatched physicality and ball-tracking skills. He’s not just a jump-ball merchant; he thrived in contested catch situations and brings a swagger that fits perfectly with the Cowboys’ offense.

Together, this duo brings elite production, physical toughness, and explosive upside to a team with championship ambitions.

Puka Nacua & Davante Adams ranked 4 in our 2025 NFL WR Duo Rankings.

4. Puka Nacua & Davante Adams – Los Angeles Rams

The pairing of Puka Nacua and Davante Adams is one of the most unexpected — and most dangerous — wide receiver duos in the NFL. Nacua had a breakout rookie season that shattered expectations, and he followed it up with an even more polished 2024 campaign. His ability to operate from the slot or outside, combined with elite hands and YAC ability, makes him a true WR1.

Enter Davante Adams, still one of the most refined route runners in football. Despite quarterback turnover, Adams stayed productive, and now joins a much more stable offense under Sean McVay. His footwork, red zone dominance, and football IQ give the Rams a massive edge.

This duo blends youth and savvy in a way few others can. Nacua is the engine — but Adams is the closer.

A.J. Brown & DeVonta Smith ranked 3 in our 2025 NFL WR Duo Rankings.

3. A.J. Brown & DeVonta Smith – Philadelphia Eagles

No duo in the league blends brute strength and surgical precision quite like A.J. Brown and DeVonta Smith. Brown continues to be a walking mismatch — physically overpowering corners, dominating on slants, and turning routine catches into momentum-shifting gains. In 2024, he posted another monster season and reasserted himself as one of the top wideouts in the game.

On the other side, Smith remains one of the most graceful separators in football. His ability to create space with subtle movements and elite footwork makes him a perfect complement to Brown’s aggressive style. Even when the Eagles’ offense stalled at times, this duo consistently delivered in high-leverage spots.

Their balance of styles makes them nearly unguardable. Whether it’s deep shots, intermediate digs, or red zone fades — Brown and Smith give Philly answers for every coverage.

Justin Jefferson & Jordan Addison ranked 2 in our 2025 NFL WR Duo Rankings.

2. Justin Jefferson & Jordan Addison – Minnesota Vikings

Even after missing time in 2024, Justin Jefferson remains one of the most dominant receivers in the NFL. His elite combination of route precision, body control, and contested catch ability keeps him at the top of every defensive coordinator’s nightmare list. When healthy, he changes the geometry of the field and forces constant double coverage — often still beating it.

Next to him, Jordan Addison continues to grow into a dangerous WR2. In just his second year, he nearly doubled his production, showcasing sharp breaks and a knack for finding soft spots in zone. Addison thrives off Jefferson’s gravity, often facing single coverage and making defenses pay for it.

With rookie quarterback J.J. McCarthy now under center, the Vikings’ aerial attack should remain dangerous — and this duo will be the reason why.

Justin Jefferson – 2024-25 Stats

Ja’Marr Chase & Tee Higgins ranked 1 in our 2025 NFL WR Duo Rankings.

1. Ja’Marr Chase & Tee Higgins – Cincinnati Bengals

This is still the gold standard. Ja’Marr Chase continues to be one of the most explosive and complete wide receivers in football — a true WR1 who wins at every level. Whether it’s beating press coverage, working the middle of the field, or turning a bubble screen into a touchdown, Chase is a constant threat. Even with Joe Burrow missing time, he still produced like a top-tier receiver.

Tee Higgins battled through injuries in 2024, but his value remains undeniable. He’s a jump-ball specialist, red zone weapon, and a mismatch nightmare for corners who can’t match his size and catch radius. In games where he was healthy, Higgins reminded everyone why he’s a 1B, not just a WR2.

If Burrow stays upright, this duo will continue to terrorize defenses — with the perfect blend of power, finesse, and big-play consistency.

Ja’Marr Chase – 2024-25 Stats

• Games Played: 16
