Purdy Now the MVP Favorite at BetOnline
In somewhat of a bold statement, and perhaps overreaction, one bookmaker has made Brock Purdy the MVP favorite.
We released updated MVP odds Monday morning, and "Mr. Irrelevant" has the best chances at 4/1.
Last week at this time., Purdy had the seventh-lowest odds at 12/1. Purdy jumped over Josh Allen, Patrick Mahomes, Tua Tagovailoa, Jalen Hurst, Lamar Jackson and Christian McCaffrey in a span of seven days.
The majority of other sportsbooks show Mahomes as the favorite. Tagovailoa is second at most places, donning about the same odds at SportsBetting.ag (5/1) as he does elsewhere.
Other books are offering Purdy around 7/1, which is in line with Josh Allen in the below odds.
Ahead of Week 1 this season, Purdy's MVP odds were a whopping 40/1.
Devon Achane, who is dazzling fans and scorching opponents in his rookie season, is quickly moving up the odds board for Offensive ROY.
Way back on April 28, Achane was assigned 40/1 odds to take home ROY honors (Bijan Robinson/Bryce Young were favorites). Going into Week 1 he had 28/1 odds, but after Week 1 he had dropped to 50/1.
Now, the "second-fastest man" in the NFL is second on the ROY list with 3/1 odds. CJ Stroud remains the favorite.
