Who are the best MUT Core Core Elite linebackers in Madden 23?

The best base linebacker you can nab for your coins is T.J. Watt. The Steeler bears the highest Pursuit rating and second-highest Block Shedding rating amongst the 10 best linebackers in the league.

Although he didn’t make the list, players shouldn’t forget about the Cowboys’ Micah Parsons. He is one of the best all-around linebackers in MUT with his 85 Pursuit and mind-boggling high 82 Zone Coverage rating.
