Through ten playoff games, we’ve seen a ton of great performances from players playing with their seasons on the line.

These players have been their team’s best players in the postseason so far. Obviously, you could put the quarterback for every team, as they’re the “most valuable”, but we tried to mix it up.

Los Angeles Chargers: Ladd McConkey

The Chargers did not play well at all in their Wild Card Round loss to the Texans. But, Ladd McConkey was terrific. The rookie wide receiver caught 9 passes for 197 yards, including an 86-yard touchdown.

Pittsburgh Steelers: Cameron Heyward

Heyward, now 35, has long been one of the most underrated players of his generation. He had ten tackles and two run stuffs for the Steelers against the Ravens in the Wild Card Roudn

Denver Broncos: DJ Jones

DJ Jones, a veteran defensive lineman, had 7 tackles and a sack in Denver’s blowout loss to the Bills in the Wild Card Round.

Green Bay Packers: Josh Jacobs

Josh Jacobs ran the ball effectively against a stout Philadelphia front, tallying 81 yards on 18 carries and scoring a touchdown in Green Bay’s Wild Card Round.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers: Mike Evans

Despite the loss, Mike Evans tallied 7 catches for 92 yards and a touchdown for the Buccaneers against the Commanders in the Wild Card Round.

Minnesota Vikings: Blake Cashman

The Vikings laid an egg against the Rams in the Wild Card Round. But, Blake Cashman was sensational, he had 11 tackles and a sack, and nearly had a fumble return for a touchdown before it was overturned on review.

Houston Texans: Will Anderson

Will Anderson was an absolute monster in the postseason for the Texans. He had 3.5 sacks total in their win over the Chargers and loss to the Chiefs. He was simply unblockable.

Detroit Lions: Jahmyr Gibbs

The Lions choked at home against the Commanders in the Divisional Round. But, Jahmyr Gibbs was sensational. He had 14 carries for 105 yards and two touchdowns, and added 70 yards on six catches through the air.

Los Angeles Rams: Jared Verse

Jared Verse was sensational in these playoffs. In the win over the Vikings, he had a 57-yard fumble return for a touchdown and was a huge part of a dominant Los Angeles pass rush. And against Philadelphia in the Rams’ Divisional Round loss, he had two sacks. Verse looks to be a star for years to come.

Baltimore Ravens: Derrick Henry

Henry was absolutely phenomenal in the playoffs. He combined for 42 carries for 270 yards and 3 touchdowns in two playoff games before the Ravens got knocked out by the Bills.

Kansas City Chiefs: Travis Kelce

Kansas City’s offense struggled against the Houston Texans in Saturday’s Divisional Round win. Those struggles didn’t apply to Travis Kelce. The all-time great had 7 catches for 117 yards and touchdown on just 8 targets. He continues to be a dominant postseason player.k

Buffalo Bills: Josh Allen

James Cook has been really good, as has Gregory Rousseau. But, we all know who has carried Buffalo this far. The numbers won’t pop out to you, but Allen has been tremendous, as he has been his entire postseason career. As he goes, Buffalo goes.

Philadelphia Eagles: Saquon Barkley

Eric Hartline - Imagn Images

Barkley has been sensational in the postseason, tallying 324 yards on 51 carries and another 31 yards on 6 catches. That rushing yardage total would’ve been even higher had he not slid down on a game-clinching run against the Packers that would’ve been a long touchdown. He’s the most dangerous player left in the playoffs.

Washington Commanders: Jayden Daniels

Daniels has been the MVP of the entire playoffs so far, and I think it’s tough to argue for anyone else over him. He’s thrown for 567 yards, 4 touchdowns, no interceptions, and taken just one sack. And, he’s added another 87 yards on the ground, too. His play in the clutch has been magnificent, and he’s putting together one of the best postseasons in NFL history.
