Way back in September, when the Philadelphia Eagles were lighting up the Cleveland Browns, Chicago Bears, and Pittsburgh Steelers, quarterback Carson Wentz was favored by Canadian-based Bovada.lv to win Offensive Rookie of the Year honors.
Wentz's odds have since plummeted. After updating their season prop bets, Wentz is now the third most likely Rookie of the Year winner, trailing far behind Dallas Cowboys running back Ezekiel Elliott and quarterback Dak Prescott.
Rookie | Odds |
Ezekiel Elliott, Cowboys | -500 |
Dak Prescott, Cowboys | +275 |
Carson Wentz, Eagles | +3300 |
If you bet that Elliott will win, you would have to plunk down $500 just to win $100. Meanwhile, a $100 bet on Wentz would win you $3300 if he took home those honors.
Surprisingly, Elliott is also the favorite to win league MVP over quarterbacks Tom Brady and Matt Ryan. Bovada's full MVP odds:
Player | Odds | Player | Odds |
Ezekiel Elliott, Cowboys | +250 | David Johnson, Cardinals | +5000 |
Tom Brady, Patriots | +275 | Aaron Rodgers, Packers | +5000 |
Matt Ryan, Falcons | +500 | Eli Manning, Giants | +5000 |
Russell Wilson, Seahawks | +900 | Cam Newton, Panthers | +6600 |
Derek Carr, Raiders | +1000 | Julio Jones, Falcons | +6600 |
Dak Prescott, Cowboys | +1000 | Von Miller, Broncos | +6600 |
Matthew Stafford, Lions | +1600 | Rob Gronkowski, Patriots | +6600 |
Andrew Luck, Colts | +3300 | LeVeon Bell, Steelers | +10000 |
Drew Brees, Saints | +5000 | Antonio Brown, Steelers | +10000 |
Philip Rivers, Chargers | +5000 | Nelson Agholor, Eagles | +99999999999 (probably) |
