Even though Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers is coming off winning his fourth career NFL MVP award, there’s no guarantee he’ll experience the same success after his top receiver darted for Vegas. Because of this uncertainty, we’re seeing other quarterbacks lead the way in the early 2022-23 NFL MVP betting odds.
With Tom Brady showing he can’t quit us yet, TB12 can’t be ruled out either, although we have a new generation of superstar QBs who have emerged as MVP favorites, which won’t surprise anyone who watched the AFC Divisional Championship in early 2022.
Here’s a look at the NFL MVP odds from DraftKings.

NFL MVP odds 2022-2023: Breaking down biggest favorites
- Josh Allen, Buffalo Bills: Becoming one of the best young QBs in football after just three seasons has catapulted Allen to the top of the NFL MVP odds for the 2022-23 season. His ability to put up otherworldly numbers through the air while being his team’s most explosive rushing option gives Allen a betting chance.
- Patrick Mahomes, Kansas City Chiefs: A strong late-season run at the end has placed Mahomes back near the top of the MVP race, where he’s likely to be a fixture for the better part of the next 10 seasons. Swapping Tyreek Hill for JuJu Smith-Schuster and Marquez Valdes-Scantling will be an adjustment, but Mahomes will be fine.
- Tom Brady, Tampa Bay Buccaneers: He’s back! After a brief retirement, Brady will return for a chance at winning his eighth Super Bowl ring. We’d be a fool to doubt his chances to win his fourth MVP in 2022.
- Aaron Rodgers, Green Bay Packers: A rough start following an offseason of drama disappeared quickly, culminating in yet another MVP award for the 10x Pro Bowl QB. We’ll see how AR12’s 2022 team plays, but they won’t have Davante Adams.
- Justin Herbert, Los Angeles Chargers: Everyone likes them some Justin Herbert, watch a few highlights of achievements and you’ll quickly see why. Always calm and collected, Herbert is a strong bet to be at the forefront of players with the best odds to win MVP in 2022.
- Joe Burrow, Cincinnati Bengals: Amazingly, Burrow got to the Super Bowl quicker than any other No. 1 overall pick in NFL history. There’s no telling what he can accomplish next, paired with Ja’Marr Chase, why can’t Burrow become the MVP?
- Russell Wilson, Denver Broncos: All it took was a trade away from the Seahawks for Wilson to once again be seen as an MVP favorite with a chance to win another Super Bowl. A strong receiving corps and a better line than he’s used to should allow Russ to cook again.
- Matthew Stafford, Los Angeles Rams: Fresh off a Super Bowl victory, the Rams have provided their QB with a big target in Allen Robinson. In his second year in Sean McVay’s system, Stafford only figures to get more consistent as the chemistry between him and Cooper Kupp somehow continues to grow.
- Dak Prescott, Dallas Cowboys: We’ve seen Prescott recover nicely from the devastating leg injury that ended his 2021 campaign. Still buoyed by the talent in Dallas, Prescott will remain on the MVP map heading into 2022.
Bottom line: It’s way too early to predict who the 2022-23 NFL MVP will be thanks to an offseason that’s sure to be filled with a frenzy of player movement throughout the league.
