- Nick Cross (20 years old entering Week 1) is the youngest.
Everyone knows Tom Brady leads the list of oldest NFL players for 2022 at age 45, but what about the youngest?
Safety Nick Cross of the Indianapolis Colts is the youngest, as he wasn’t even able to legally drink prior to Week 1. Cross plays mostly on special teams.
All of the top 10 youngest players in the league weren’t even born when Brady took his first regular-season NFL snap (Thanksgiving of 2000).
Several of these players are still playing in the NFL playoffs.
Below are the 10 youngest NFL players, with their ages as of Week 1 of the 2022 season.
