ESPN are continuing with their campaign of ranking the top players in the NFL before the 2020 season starts. They came up with a list of Top-five QBs earlier this week.

Super Bowl LIV MVP Patrick Mahomes topped that list, followed by NFL veterans Russell Wilson and Aaron Rodgers in second and third spots. Houston Texans’ Deshaun Watson came in fourth while New Orleans Saints’ Drew Brees took the fifth spot.

They released a list of Top-10 running backs as well. NY Giants’ Saquan Barkley came in at number one followed by Carolina Panthers’ Christian McCaffrey at number two.

Ezekiel Elliott is known for his charitable acts. The Ohio State-graduate proved what a fine young man he is once again by helping raise $85,000 in funds for an NGO in Houston.

Zeke wrote a check for that amount to the North Texas Food Bank organization. These funds will help provide meals for hundreds of Texans that are affected by the coronavirus pandemic.
