Top 10 most followed NFL players on Facebook

OVERTIME PERIOD

Today, I released the 2025 NFL State of Facebook in my Creator Hub. After compiling the NFL’s current 112.5 million Facebook followers, breaking them down by division and conference, I asked myself a question. Who is the most followed NFL player on Facebook?

That led me to overtime reps in the GYM to bring you the TOP 10 players, according to my research. Here’s the kicker: if you discover a player I missed, awesome, this list will grow. The only catch is that they have to have over 1M followers. Deal? Thanks.

Every Saturday, I share research for social media content creators to pick up some FREE GAME. This post is a listicle. A listicle is a piece of writing or other content presented wholly or partly in the form of a list.

I found it interesting that the variety of players from the past to the present made this list. It’s crazy to think players can accumulate more than NFL teams themselves—example A.

FROM THE BOTTOM TO THE TOP

In addition to linking their Facebook profiles so you can follow them today, I have listed them in order from 10 to 1. If you’re an NFL content creator, be sure to read until the end. Every content creator needs to know their platform. I like to call it due diligence.

Larry Fitzgerald 1M

Marsahwn Lynch 1.2M

Patrick Mahomes 1.2M

Emmitt Smith 1.3M

Travis Kelce 1.4M

Dez Bryant 1.4M

Odell Beckham Jr. 1.6M

Richard Sherman 1.7M

Russell Wilson 2.4M

Tom Brady 4.9M

CONCLUSION

In the next two weeks, I will be sharing my Instagram and YouTube research with you. These are three platforms I’m currently building on as an NFL content creator. Feel free to connect with me on Facebook today.

Facebook is considered for old heads. That’s precisely why I planted my flag there. The Dallas Cowboys RUN Facebook from a follower perspective. After a decade of creating content on social media, I’m giving back here every Saturday.

Join me here in the next few weeks and learn more about my BIG3 social media platforms. Please see my NFL State of Facebook in this five-part series. In addition to Instagram, next week. Download the Patreon app and join my Creator Hub FREE this season.

How does this help your creative journey? If you’re a writer, you now know what a listicle is. Surprisingly, I didn’t find much else on Google about NFL players and Facebook. Now this research can contribute to the algorithm. See you here next week.
