The MVP is about to be awarded. By multiple accounts, there has been no NFL player more "valuable" to his team this season than Buffalo Bills' quarterback Josh Allen.

The All-Pro voting results suggest Baltimore Ravens' Lamar Jackson will win the race for the NFL Most Valuable Player award.

Yet, in a last minute turn of events, Allen’s MVP odds are improving.

Josh Allen's odds on Polymarket have increased in the last few hours from 53% to 94% to win the MVP.

Apparently, someone bet over six figures on Allen on Polymarket, increasing his MVP odds on the futures market.

Josh Allen topping Lamar Jackson for MVP was a surprise to many—but not, apparently, to a well-positioned whale on the futures contract betting site Polymarket.

One person bet over $600,000 on Allen, driving his odds on the futures market from 53% to 94% Thursday afternoon.

Legendary writer Peter King, formerly of Sports Illustrated and NBC, advocated Allen as the best choice, explaining his thought process behind his MVP vote.

"I have a very strong opinion about this. I have read so many things within the last week or so that says 'Oh, my God. The year that Lamar Jackson put up, best year a quarterback's ever had with the rushing and the, I think it's 41-to-4 touchdown-to-interception ratio. Incredible. No guy has ever had stats like that at the quarterback position,'" said King. "Listen, this isn't a stat award. Everybody's got stats these days. Jared Goff has stats. Joe Burrow has stats. Sam Darnold has stats. Obviously, all these players have stats."
