10 Active NFL Players Who Are NO LONGER Superstars (2023)

[@YourGrannysThong]

"In his first season with the Chargers, Mack only had 8 sacks and 2 FF." 🤔 You know you have lofty expectations when 8 sacks is a down year.

[@jayvionwilliams4061]

Yea wit 16 pressures😭

[@nottodayimbusy7146]

8 sacks is bad especially if like Mack you're a pass rush specialist

[@sirkevstah289]

18 pressures in 17 games is just insanely bad. You could get better production from some random nobody off the street. Sacks don't tell the whole story. Ask Vic Beasley.

[@Subscribebytch]

8 sacks is not a superstar.

[@jaydoubleuem]

He said in two years

[@lurkinginshadows1141]

I was surprised to not see Zeke Elliott on this video. I thought he would be the first player introduced on this topic. Zeke is now backup/goal line RB at this stage in his career. And I may be jumping off the gun, but I don’t see OBJ returning to first 3 years of his career form again. Got old, suffered quite a bit of injuries, and Lamar may not be his QB for the Ravens….

[@devanshouse5027]

Can Newton, Russell Wilson, Deshaun Watson to name 3 high level QBs. OBJ for sure. And how 'bout Ezekiel Elliot and Kareem Hunt?

[@brandon9621]

Watson never reached superstar status lol. He was good but not SUPERSTAR

[@RioluLucario1994]

Idk good Pass Rushers tend to stick around long after their prime much more often than other positions as they offer good rotational or depth pieces. Guys like Von Miller and Khalil Mack are the prime examples

[@Saintsrule06]

Rotational doesn’t mean not the best in a rotation, he’s just old and you throw him in when you need to get to the qb and he racks up sacks and pressures, you just don’t throw him in for every down

[@Zalwalloo]

Von is still good, Mack isn't.

[@michaelmorales32]

How is Keenan allen injury prone, he’s been consistent every year besides last season!! The past 5 seasons besides last season he had about 100 catches or more with one year of 97 and with at least 1000 yards or more with one of 992 yards and he’s still got plenty in the tank

When he was with the Pats from 2000 until 2019, he was unstoppable! 2020 with the Buccaneers was his Twilight year. 2021 and 2022 he slipped so bad it was embarrassing! Ending his career on an 8-9 record and losing in the Playoffs to a team he never lost to in the past is even more embarrassing! So yes, he was a huges superstar back when, but in the end he couldn't keep playing like one. The Pats even slipped up a few times but TB12 always found a way to keep them dominant! Just saying.

30 isn't "ancient" for a WR lol what are you talking about? Davante Adams and Tyler Lockett are both 30 & Adams is still one of the top 5-7 elite WR1s in the NFL while Lockett may be the 4th best WR2 in the league after Waddle, Higgins and Devonta Smith. DeAndre Hopkins & Keenan Allen (who you wrongly listed) are both 31 and still star WRs when healthy....Allen missed like half the season last yr and still put up 66 Rec, 752 Rec yds & 4 TDs and is still a reception magnet. I don't know how you have Keenan Allen on this list. Williams is not the go to WR for Herbert lol did you watch the Chargers games at all when Allen finally came back last season? Such a dumb comment. Also Thielen put up 16 TDs combined in the last 2 seasons w/10 TDs 2 seasons ago in 2021 alongside the best WR in football, Justin Jefferson. Anyone who can put up 700+ yds & 16 TDs in the past 2 seasons the way Jetta has played the last 2 years doesn't deserve to be written off yet just because of his age. Some of these I agree with, like Melvin Gordon and Clowney....But Keenan Allen is a pathetic take...Dude was a 3rd round fantasy pick last yr and is still a target hog when healthy. Did you know Davante Adams was 30 & Hopkins was 31? And what? They aren't stars still? LOL They're ancient? Whack take lol saying 30 is ancient for a WR in today's NFL.

I don’t feel like saying Khalil Mack is not a superstar anymore. He’s definitely a X Factor for sure.
