Adonai Mitchell, WR, Jets (20.97 MPH) \u00a0<\/p>\n Top Speed: 20.97 MPHPlay type: 52-yard receiving TD<\/p>\n AD Mitchell was part of the Sauce Gardner trade from the Indianapolis Colts<\/a> to the New York Jets<\/a>, and the former second round pick produced the best play of his young career on Sunday. Mitchell scored his first NFL touchdown, as he ran by Atlanta Falcons<\/a> CB Mike Hughes to score a 52-yard touchdown. While Mitchell has had drop issues in the NFL, he held onto this pass from Tyrod Taylor to secure the highlight.<\/p>\n Tyrod goes DEEP to AD Mitchell for the 52-yard TD!<\/p>\n ATLvsNYJ on FOX\/FOX Onehttps:\/\/t.co\/HkKw7uXVnt<\/a> pic.twitter.com\/1Vn37w4nNN<\/a><\/p>\n \u2014 NFL (@NFL) November 30, 2025<\/a><\/p>\n MORE:\u00a0A look at the NFL playoff picture after Week 13<\/a><\/p>\n 2. Mike Jackson, CB, Panthers (20.88 MPH) \u00a0<\/p>\n Top speed: 20.88 MPHPlay type: 48-yard pick-six<\/p>\n One of the biggest highlights of the day belonged to Panthers CB Mike Jackson, who intercepted Matthew Stafford and ran it back for a touchdown in the Panthers’ win over the Rams. That marked the veteran’s third interception of the season, and his first career touchdown to help Carolina pull off the upset. What made it more special was that Stafford entered the game with a historic streak of avoiding interceptions, but the quarterback threw two on the day and also lost a fumble.<\/p>\n Mike Jackson intercepts Matthew Stafford for a Pick-6!<\/p>\n LARvsCAR on FOX\/FOX Onehttps:\/\/t.co\/HkKw7uXVnt<\/a> pic.twitter.com\/J2yeGsyNZK<\/a><\/p>\n \u2014 NFL (@NFL) November 30, 2025<\/a><\/p>\n MORE:\u00a0Matthew Stafford’s\u00a0turnovers doom Los Angeles in loss to Panthers<\/a><\/p>\n 3. Isaiah Bond, WR, Browns (20.8 MPH) \u00a0<\/p>\n Top speed: 20.8 MPHPlay type: 9-yard rush<\/p>\n Isaiah Bond was a talented player in college, and he briefly showed off his speed for the Cleveland Browns<\/a> against the San Francisco 49ers<\/a>. Bond took an end around carry for nine yards and a first down, producing the third-fastest speed of the week in the process. While Bond’s play was fairly innocuous in the grand scheme of the game, it shows how the wide receiver can find success in the NFL.<\/p>\n Shedeur Sanders threw a block for Isaiah Bond.<\/p>\n He can do it all \ud83d\ude02 pic.twitter.com\/rDQ8px0xxg<\/a><\/p>\n \u2014 SM Highlights (@SMHighlights1) November 30, 2025<\/a><\/p>\n MORE:\u00a0How did Shedeur Sanders perform against the 49ers?<\/a><\/p>\n 4.

Jaylen Wright, RB, Dolphins (20.48 MPH) \u00a0<\/p>\n Top speed: 20.48 MPHPlay-type: 5-yard rush<\/p>\n Jaylen Wright only had three carries for 16 yards in the Miami Dolphins<\/a>‘ win against the New Orleans Saints<\/a>, but he did reach over 20 MPH on a simple five-yard rush. The speedy Wright has 18 carries for 65 yards on the season, as he has sat behind De’Von Achane for the majority of the season.<\/p>\n MORE: Updated NFL Draft order through Week 13<\/a><\/p>\n 6. Mason Tipton, WR, Saints (20.48 MPH) \u00a0<\/p>\n Top speed: 20.48 MPHPlay type: 36-yard kickoff return<\/p>\n Mason Tipton is becoming a staple on this list, as he had the third-fastest speed in Week 12 with a kickoff return for a touchdown. While he didn’t reach 21 MPH this week, he did get to 20.48 MPH with another kickoff return that went for 36 yards. While the Saints are one of the NFL’s worst teams, Tipton is proving to be a bright spot for the offense and special teams.<\/p>\n MORE: Treylon Burks produces catch of the year candidate against Broncos<\/a><\/p>\n 7. Keaton Mitchell, RB, Ravens (20.41 MPH) \u00a0<\/p>\n Top speed: 20.41 MPHPlay type: 18-yard rushing TD<\/p>\n Keaton Mitchell had the fastest play of Thanksgiving day, as the running back scored a touchdown in the Baltimore Ravens’ loss to the Cincinnati Bengals<\/a>. While the Ravens couldn’t complete the comeback, Mitchell’s score got Baltimore within striking distance late in the third quarter. Mitchell ended the game with just two carries for 19 yards, but that touchdown was his biggest contribution of the game.<\/p>\n TOUCHDOWN @_KeatonMitchell<\/a>!!!!!

De’Von Achane, RB, Dolphins (20.37 MPH) \u00a0<\/p>\n Top speed: 20.37 MPHPlay type: 29-yard rushing TD<\/p>\n De’Von Achane is one of the fastest players in the NFL, and he showed off his speed again on Sunday afternoon. The running back took a pitch 29 yards for a touchdown to open the scoring in Miami against the Saints, once again placing in the top-10 of the fastest speeds of the week. Achane now has a career-high 1,034 rushing yards on the season, the first time he has surpassed 1,000 rushing yards since entering the NFL.<\/p>\n There goes De\u2019Von Achane for six!<\/p>\n NOvsMIA on FOX\/FOX Onehttps:\/\/t.co\/HkKw7uXVnt<\/a> pic.twitter.com\/Tj2LUxgCqU<\/a><\/p>\n \u2014 NFL (@NFL) November 30, 2025<\/a><\/p>\n MORE: Sauce Gardner injures calf in loss to Texans<\/a><\/p>\n 9. Caleb Williams, QB, Bears (20.31 MPH) \u00a0<\/p>\n Top speed: 20.31 MPHPlay type: 5-yard run<\/p>\n During the Chicago Bears big win over the Philadelphia Eagles on Black Friday, Caleb Williams surpassed 20 MPH on a five-yard scramble. The reason for Williams’ speed was his intent on reaching the first-down marker before getting hit, which he successfully did as he ran out of bounds.<\/p>\n Also I was rewatching this Caleb Williams scramble and he really is Aaron Rodgers’s son \ud83d\ude02\ud83d\ude02\ud83d\ude02 pic.twitter.com\/Ycw3l4r9l0<\/a><\/p>\n \u2014 \ud83d\udc51 King Artie \ud83d\udc51 (@Artie_Thinks) November 29, 2025<\/a><\/p>\n <\/p>\n
