📚 How to play the NFL Wordle?
Step 1: Make Your First Guess
Start with any NFL player you know. The search box will auto-complete active NFL players as you type. Don't worry about being wrong — your first guess gives you valuable clues!
After your guess, you'll see a row of tiles showing different attributes:
- Team - Which team the player is on
- Division - AFC/NFC and division
- Position - QB, RB, WR, TE, etc.
- Age - Player's current age
- Height - Player's height
- Weight - Player's weight
- Jersey # - Player's jersey number
Step 2: Read the Color Clues
Each tile changes color to guide you:
Green = Exact Match
This attribute is 100% correct. The mystery player shares this exact trait with your guess.
Yellow = Partial Match
You're close! For example:
- Team (Yellow): Different team, but same division or conference
- Age/Height/Weight (Yellow + Arrow): Close range — arrow shows if mystery player is higher ↑ or lower ↓
- Position (Yellow): Similar position group (e.g., both offensive players)
Gray = No Match
This attribute doesn't match at all. Use this to eliminate possibilities.
Step 3: Use Clues to Win
Narrow down the answer with each guess. Pay attention to green tiles first — those are confirmed matches. Then use yellow tiles and arrows to adjust your next guess.
Example winning sequence:
- First guess: 2 greens, 3 yellows → You know division and position
- Second guess: 4 greens, 1 yellow → Age and team confirmed, weight close
- Third guess: All green! 🎉 You found the player!
💡 Pro Tips for NFL Wordle Success
Start with star players
Popular players like quarterbacks or recent Pro Bowlers are good first guesses since you likely know their stats.
Use the arrows
When you see ↑ or ↓ on Age/Height/Weight, it tells you if the mystery player's number is higher or lower. This eliminates half the possibilities!
Division clues are powerful
If you get a green division tile, you've narrowed it down to just 4 teams (16 teams per conference, 4 per division).
Position matters
A green position tile dramatically reduces options. There are only ~32 starting QBs, for example.
Think about roster depth
The mystery player is always a current NFL player, usually someone recognizable (starters, key contributors, or notable backups).
❓ Frequently Asked Questions
What are the rules of the NFL Wordle?
NFL Wordle challenges you to guess the mystery NFL player in 6-8 attempts. Type a player name from the autocomplete list and submit to receive color-coded clues: green indicates an exact match (team, position, age, etc.), yellow shows partial matches (same division/conference), and gray means no match. Arrows (↑/↓) guide you toward the correct age, height, weight, or jersey number. Each guess narrows down possibilities across team, division, position, and physical attributes. Inspired by Wordle and Weddle, a new player appears daily—use strategic deduction to win before running out of attempts!
What is the best players to start the game?
Patrick Mahomes is the optimal first guess. As a mid-range QB (age 28, 6'3", 230 lbs, AFC West), he provides balanced information across all attributes. Josh Allen (taller build, AFC East) and Christian McCaffrey (NFC coverage, RB position) are excellent alternatives.
Pro tip: Choose players with middle-range stats (age 25-29, height 6'1"-6'4") to maximize arrow feedback. Avoid extremes like rookies or 300+ lb linemen—they limit deduction possibilities.
