  • Damar Hamlin tops the charts as the most searched NFL player, garnering more than 290,463 monthly searches following his in-game cardiac arrest.
  • Aaron Rodgers was the second most searched for NFL player in Canada, receiving more than 96,592 monthly searches following his Achilles heel injury.

Atlanta (Special to ZennieReport.com) – When it comes to the NFL, football fans are eager to tout their favorite players and argue a case for why their team is the best. However, since no one team has a monopoly on the best players, this begs the question – what would the ultimate NFL lineup look like?

Sports betting experts at Bettingtop10 Canada analyzed search data over the past year for all 2,421 current players in the NFL to find the nation’s most Googled players, in order to create their ‘Dream Team’ roster.

From quarterbacks to defensive backs, here’s the lineup that Canada has been Googling the most: 

Canada’s NFL dream team:
Offensive Lineup: Skill players


Offensive skill players are directly involved in ball handling and play-making, including quarterbacks, running backs, wide receivers, and tight ends. They’re central to executing and advancing offensive plays.

Quarterback (QB): 

New York Jets’ quarterback Aaron Rodgers was revealed to be the most searched for quarterback in Canada and receives an average of 96,592 searches every month nationwide. The high number of searches is partly due to public interest in his torn Achilles tendon received during the September game against the Buffalo Bills.

Running back (RB): 

San Francisco 49ers’ Christian McCaffrey is the most searched running back in Canada and receives around 21,533 Google searches each month, earning him a place in Canada’s NFL dream team. Part of this search traffic may be due to McCaffrey recently breaking the 49ers record for most consecutive touchdowns in an NFL game, with 13. The record was previously held by Jerry Rice in 1987.

New England Patriots’ Ezekiel Elliott is the second most searched running back in the nation. He receives around 15,617 searches every month, securing his place as running back on Canada’s football dream team.

Wide receiver (WR): 

Baltimore Ravens’ Odell Beckham Jr. is the most searched wide receiver in Canada, receiving 26,958 Google searches each month and securing his place as one of the two running backs on Canada’s NFL dream team. It’s important to note that a proportion of this traffic may result from rumors of Beckham Jr. being linked to Kim Kardashian romantically.

Miami Dolphins’ Tyreek Hill is the nation’s second most searched for wide receiver. He amasses more than 21,525 Google searches nationwide each month, earning his place as the second wide receiver in Canada’s NFL dream team.

Tight end (TE): 

Kansas City Chiefs’ Travis Kelce is the most searched for tight end in the NFL, with more than 47,617 dedicated searches each month across the nation. For this reason, he earns his spot as tight end on Canada’s NFL dream team.

It’s important to note that part of his search traffic comes from his confirmed romance with American singer-songwriter Taylor Swift, who has appeared at multiple Chiefs games this season.

Offensive Lineup: Offensive Line

Comprising the center, offensive guards, and offensive tackles, the offensive line’s main job is to protect the quarterback and make way for running backs. They’re the foundational support for offensive plays.


Offensive tackle (OT):
Cincinnati Bengals’ Orlando Brown Jr. is the nation’s most searched for offensive tackle and receives an average of 14,000 Google searches each month, securing him the first offensive position on Canada’s NFL dream team. Brown Jr. is the current highest-paid left tackle in the NFL.


Atlanta Falcons’ Matthew Bergeron is Canada’s second most searched for offensive tackle. The left tackle from Victoriaville, Canada, secured his place on Canada’s NFL dream team by receiving more than 96,000 Google searches each month.

Offensive guard (OG): 

Washington Commanders’ Chris Paul is the most searched for offensive guard in Canada, and his 38,292 Google searches each month have earned him the first offensive guard position on Canada’s NFL dream team.

Seattle Seahawks’ Damien Lewis is Canada’s second most searched for offensive guard. He receives more than 15,458 Google searches each month, awarding him the second offensive guard position on Canada’s NFL dream team.

Center (C): 

Philadelphia Eagles’ Jason Kelce is the most popular center in Canada, receiving more than 20,592 dedicated Google searches every month, resulting in his placement on Canada’s NFL dream team. A high proportion of these Google searches may be due to his brother’s romantic ties with Taylor Swift.

Defensive lineup: Defensive front
Known as the ‘front seven,’ the defensive front includes defensive tackles, defensive ends, and linebackers. Their primary role is to resist the opposing team’s offensive advances and disrupt their plays.

Defensive tackle (DT): Philadelphia Eagles’ Jordan Davis is Canada’s most searched defensive tackle and receives around 10,158 Google searches each month, securing his place on Canada’s NFL dream team.

Los Angeles Rams’ Aaron Donald is the second most searched for defensive tackle in Canada and is responsible for around 9,567 Google searches each month, earning his place on the team.

Defensive ends (DE): 

San Francisco 49ers’ Nick Bosa, who receives more than 13,200 Google searches monthly, is Canada’s most popular defensive end and earns a place on Canada’s NFL dream team. Bosa receives a cash salary of $51.01 million, making him the highest-paid defender in the NFL.

Cleveland Browns’ Myles Garrett is the second most searched for NFL defensive end in Canada, generating more than 5,267 Google searches monthly and finalizing his place on Canada’s NFL dream team.

Linebacker (LB): Detroit Lions’ Jack Campbell is the most searched for linebacker in Canada, with 29,883 monthly searches securing his placement on Canada’s NFL dream team.

Baltimore Ravens’ Josh Ross is Canada’s second most searched for linebacker, amassing more than 11,333 monthly searches on Google and securing his place on the dream team.

Buffalo Bills’ Von Miller is Canada’s third most searched for linebacker, with fans typing his name into Google more than 9,292 times each month, driving his inclusion into the team.

Defensive lineup: Defensive back

The defensive secondary lineup, also known as the defensive back, is the last line of defense for the team and includes cornerbacks and safeties. They are tasked with preventing long passes, covering wide receivers, and making interceptions. They protect against deep offensive threats.

Speaking on the study, a spokesperson from Bettingtop10 Canada said:


“Canada’s fascination with NFL players frequently extends beyond their on-field performance, with injuries, romances, and rumors of their personal life influencing who the nation searches for the most.”

“The ‘NFL Dream Team’ aims to showcase the players who have captured the nation’s attention the most over the past year in order to create the perfect team lineup.”

ENDS


Methodology:

The study analyzed average monthly search data over the past year for 2,421 NFL players. The obtained data determined the most searched players in each position. The roster of 48 active players was selected based on a typical lineup, with specific names removed due to clashes with famous figures.

Removed names:

The following player’s search traffic was either affected by famous cultural personalities or shared names with other players in the NFL, making it difficult to provide precise search result volume: Michael Jackson, Michael Jordan, Chris Evans, Bill Murray, Bobby Brown, Isaiah Thomas, Michael Thomas.
