Next Gen Stats 2025 All-Pro Team: Drake Maye, Puka Nacua star on offense

Copied!

With the NFL regular season in the books, the Next Gen Stats analytics team dives into advanced data to spotlight the best of the best at each position. Check out the NGS 2025 NFL All-Pro Team, with offensive selections featured below.

Maye and Matthew Stafford each made outstanding cases for the title of top quarterback in the NFL this season, but the Patriots’ second-year star elevated his team to such a degree that he gained the edge. Maye was the first QB since Patrick Mahomes in 2018 to generate +200 EPA on his passes, finishing with +203.1. He was a completion machine despite a high degree of difficulty, leading the NFL with 112 downfield completions and 99 completions under pressure. As a result, Maye’s 72% completion rate was +9.1% over expected, the highest mark by any QB in the Next Gen Stats era (since 2016).

Jonathan Taylor, Christian McCaffrey and James Cook all earned votes from the NGS team, but it was Robinson who rose to the top of a crowded field. He gained 861 yards off missed tackles, 100+ more than any other player since at least 2018. He was at his most elusive in the passing game, averaging 11.2 yards after catch per reception. No player in the 2020s has exceeded that mark in a season (min. 50 receptions), with Robinson the only player this season in double digits.

In his first two seasons, Smith-Njigba aligned out wide on 25% of his snaps. This season he transitioned into a role as the Seahawks’ starting X receiver and totaled 1,378 yards from a wide alignment, the most by any player since Julio Jones in 2018. Smith-Njigba was at his best on downfield targets (throws of 10+ air yards). He had 961 yards on such throws by Week 12, more than any other player’s total for the entire season, finishing with 1,258 yards and eight touchdowns, which tied for the league lead.
