Why Art Monk ranks #58 in American Football
Art Monk ranks 58th among American Football athletes on GOAT Rank and 1642nd of 4013 across every sport in the index. The published GOAT Score of 88.6 is the weighted result of five verified category scores: Dominance 82, Peak 90, Longevity 90, Honours 90, Statistics 94. Those categories are normalised against the full American Football reference universe of 340 records, not a shortlist, so the position reflects the whole sport rather than a handful of famous names.
The record covers 1980–1995 with 16 documented competitive seasons. The strongest single season in that series is 1987, which sets the Peak component at 90. Statistics is the defining strength of the profile at 94 out of 100, and it carries 15% of the final score. The underlying career record includes super bowl titles 3, career receptions 940, receiving yards 12721, single-season receptions record 106.
Immediately ahead sits Drew Brees on 88.6, a gap of 0.0 points. Directly behind is Cal Hubbard on 88.6. The position moves whenever the verified record moves: new titles, new seasons or a corrected source all feed straight back into the same formula, and every change is dated on this profile.
