5 NFL wide receivers that will terrorize opposing defenses in 2022

NFL WR no. 1: Davante Adams, Las Vegas Raiders

Losing Davante Adams in a trade to the Raiders will take a toll on Green Bay’s productivity this season. Adams helped No.12 establish a winning tradition while playing at Lambeau Field.

Now that his stint with the Packers is over, Adams must focus on helping his new quarterback obtain similar success.

Reuniting with his former college quarterback could increase production for the dangerous receiver.

While attending Fresno State, Derek Carr and his primary receiver dominated opposing defenses. Not much has changed for both players since joining the professional ranks.

Last season, Davante Adams ranked second in receptions, third in receiving yards, and fifth in touchdowns.

Adjusting the offense will not take long for a receiver that is ready for prime time.

With help from players such as Josh Jacobs and Darren Waller, the Raiders offense will have its best regular season since having Amari Cooper and Darren McFadden.

NFL Wide Receivers Honorable Mention: Tyreek Hill

Relocating to South Beach has caused some concerns for NFL analysts when discussing season projections for Kansas City’s former speedster.

Under the arm of Patrick Mahomes, Tyreek Hill was a top 5 receiver. His speed, route running, and explosiveness put defenders in a difficult position when trying to defend.

Despite his ability to make plays in big moments, many enthusiasts wonder if Tua Tagovailoa will hinder the cheetah’s success. Miami’s quarterback inexperience will cause Hill to work harder in Miami, but he is still a threat from any position on the gridiron.

Fans who enjoy high-scoring NFL action will have a blast watching the upcoming season. As quarterback talent throughout the league increases, the need for talented wide receivers will continue to rise.

As we count down the weeks remaining until the opening day, we can rely on these players to put on a show under the lights in 2022.
