Here are this year’s nominees:
Aron Cruickshank - Wide Receiver, Madrid Bravos
Aron Cruickshank had an incredible debut season in the ELF. The wide receiver broke league records for most receiving touchdowns, receptions, and yards in a single season. Together with quarterback Reid Sinnett, he created one of the most dangerous duos in Europe. Cruickshank often turned short passes into spectacular long touchdowns, using his elite speed and sharp route running. Winning the receiver triple crown highlights his complete dominance in 2025.
Reid Sinnett - Quarterback, Madrid Bravos
The Bravos brought in Reid Sinnett as the leader who could finally push them into a deep playoff run. While the team finished with an 8-4 record and made the playoffs, they were eliminated in the Wildcard Round by the Stuttgart Surge. Still, Sinnett’s individual season was simply outstanding.
He completed nearly 73% of his passes, threw for 3,953 yards, and led the league with 50 touchdowns, while only throwing 4 interceptions. His QBR of 139.9 made him the top quarterback in nearly every statistical category, and he also added valuable yards and scores on the ground. Sinnett showed that he is one of the most efficient and dangerous playmakers in the ELF.

Jadrian Clark - Quarterback, Nordic Storm
The 2023 ELF MVP is back in the conversation again. Jadrian Clark led the brand-new Nordic Storm franchise to a 10-2 record and into the Semi Finals in their first-ever season.
Clark completed 65.08% of his passes, threw 47 touchdowns, and had just 9 interceptions with a QBR of 125.10. His leadership and experience allowed the Storm offense to develop quickly and become one of the league’s most explosive units. Already an ELF champion and former MVP, Clark now has the chance to claim his second MVP trophy.
Conclusion
All three nominees have delivered incredible performances in 2025. Cruickshank redefined the wide receiver position with record-breaking numbers, Sinnett dominated as the most efficient quarterback in the league, and Clark carried a brand-new franchise into championship contention.
On September 6 in Stuttgart, the ELF will honor its brightest stars - and one of these outstanding players will be crowned Most Valuable Player of the 2025 season.
