The Top 100 Players of 2023 will be reveiled more and more every two days in the month of November. We will be releasing the Top 100 graded players of the season 2023 according to SportsMetrics. The grades reflect the individuals performance on the field.

Outstanding regular season

Reilly Hennessey played a great first season in the European League of Football. The former Schwäbisch Hall Unicorn missed multiple game due to a hand injury, but when he was on the field, the 27-year-old was among the best in the ELF.

The Surge QB started the season well, throwing for 636 yards and six touchdowns with only one interception and rushing for one score, prior to suffering an injury that forced him to sit out the next five games. He returned in Week 11, where he looked even better than before the injury, finishing the regular season with a completion percentage of 63.73 percent, 1679 passing yards, 14 passing touchdowns, and three interceptions. Additionally, Hennessey added 211 yards and six touchdowns on the ground, making him the Surge rushing touchdown leader.

Remarkable playoff run

The talented quarterback went on to throw for almost 1100 yards, 11 touchdowns and four picks and rushed for a touchdown in the playoffs but could not get his team over the hump against the Rhein Fire.

Nonetheless, Reilly Hennessey played a great season for the Surge in 2023, deservedly coming in at the number seven spot on this list.
