Matthew Stafford is the favorite in not only the regular season NFL MVP odds but the Super Bowl 60 MVP odds as well. It’s not too surprising to see him and the other quarterbacks atop the odds since 34 of the Super Bowl MVPs have been quarterbacks throughout the years, including in each of the last three years.
Mixed in with the quarterbacks are a few star wide receivers in Nacua and Smith-Njigba. Wide receivers have won the Super Bowl MVP eight times, including Cooper Kupp in 2022 and Julian Edelman in 2019.
In fact, quarterbacks and wide receivers have won all but four of the Super Bowl MVPs since 2000. The other players were all on the defensive side of the ball, with Denver Broncos linebacker Von Miller winning it most recently in 2016. Quite fittingly, the only defensive player with odds below 100/1 is Bonitto, another Broncos linebacker.
A running back hasn’t won Super Bowl MVP since Terrell Davis in 1998 and Emmitt Smith in 1994. Perhaps one of the backs can buck that trend this season, but it’d take a huge performance on the game’s biggest stage.
