2026 NFL MVP Betting Odds Show Josh Allen as Front‑Runner

NFL MVP betting odds Josh Allen sleeper candidates 2026 season

Betting markets for the 2026 NFL Most Valuable Player award list quarterback Josh Allen of the Buffalo Bills as the top favourite at +550, with former MVPs Lamar Jackson (+800), Joe Burrow (+850), Patrick Mahomes (+1000) and Justin Herbert (+1000) trailing.

Analysts also point to several NFC sleepers who could break into the conversation. New York Giants rookie quarterback Jaxson Dart, who posted nearly 2,300 passing yards and 15 touchdowns last season, is highlighted as a dark‑horse candidate. Detroit Lions running back Jahmyr Gibbs, now the focal point of the Lions' offense after the departure of David Montgomery, is another potential surprise performer.

The odds come on the heels of last season’s vote, where Matthew Stafford edged out Drake Maye by a single first‑place vote to claim the 2025 MVP. The upcoming race will be shaped by health, team performance and emerging talent across the league.
