Okay, so let’s talk about the “Most Hated NFL Players 2023.” This topic? It’s like a can of worms. Everyone’s got an opinion, and boy, are they strong.

So I started digging into this. First thing I did was hit up the usual spots – you know, the big sports sites, forums, even checked out some social media polls. I wanted to see who was getting the most heat and, more importantly, why.
One name that kept popping up was Deshaun Watson. The stuff with him has been all over the news since 2021. Off-field issues, you know? People are really divided about him, and it definitely shows in the discussions I followed.
Then there’s the whole thing about how cornerbacks are mostly black players now. It’s just something I noticed while looking at the rosters and the history. It seems like the game has evolved a lot in terms of who plays which position. And this might contribute to fans feeling a bit upset or annoyed.
- I started jotting down names, making notes on their on-field antics and any off-field scandals.
- I compared this year’s “most hated” with last year’s. Surprising how much (or how little) changes in just a year.
- I even looked at the teams. The 49ers were talked about a lot, and not always in a good way. I guess they’re one of those teams you either love or hate.
Patrick Mahomes also came up. They call him a “winner” but, as some folks pointed out, “no one likes a winner.” I think he’s a great player, but maybe some people don’t like how dominant the Chiefs have become?
I also spent some time looking at the official NFL Top 100 for 2023. They announced it in stages, which I thought was kind of a cool way to build up the hype. It’s interesting to see who made the cut and who didn’t, and how that compares to 2022’s list.
It’s crazy how passionate people get about football. I mean, I love the game too, but some of these debates are wild. Regardless of the cause, it’s clear the NFL is more than just a game for a lot of folks. It’s a big part of their lives, and their feelings about players and teams run deep.

My Realization
After all this, I realized something. Being on the “most hated” list doesn’t necessarily mean you’re a bad player. It often just means you’re in the spotlight, you’re controversial, or maybe you’re just too good. And sometimes, it’s not even about football. It’s about personal stuff, things that happen off the field. But one thing’s for sure – it makes the NFL even more interesting to follow.
