NFL Comeback Player of the Year Odds: Aaron Rodgers Favored Amongst Group of Talented Quarterbacks

NFL Comeback Player of the Year Odds: Aaron Rodgers Favored Amongst Group of Talented Quarterbacks

2024 NFL Comeback Player of the Year is set to be a star-studded awards race with a large group of high-profile players returning from season-ending injuries. 

Comeback Player of the Year is always an interesting award, but this year will likely be dominated by the signal callers returning from their injuries, including, but not limited to, Aaron Rodgers, Joe Burrow, Kirk Cousins, and Anthony Richardson. 

Those are the top four choices, headlined by Rodgers, who is returning from an Achilles injury suffered on Monday Night Football in Week 1 on his first drive as the Jets quarterback. 

Rodgers is expected back for Week 1, practicing with Gang Green in hopes of ending the team’s Super Bowl drought. If he can play at a high level, will he capture the award, or will he be in the MVP race that will cloud this award? Can he win both? This is an interesting subplot of the 2024 season. 

For now, here are the odds to win the award with Rodgers and Burrow, the 2021 winner of this award, the clear choices to win, with Cousins and Richardson slightly off the pace.

10 quarterbacks have odds of +3000 or shorter with only one player listed inside of this number that isn’t a QB: Nick Chubb. The Browns running back is recovering from an early season knee injury but will have stiff competition with quarterbacks holding most of the attention, including his backfield mate, quarterback Deshaun Watson. 

There will be plenty of QBs that dominate this award, which is par for the course. The last six winners of the award have been quarterbacks (there was no Comeback Player of the Year in 2020).

Massive Ravens-Chiefs Bet Indicates Interest in Week 1 Underdog

Massive Ravens-Chiefs Bet Indicates Interest in Week 1 Underdog

The 2024 NFL season will get underway on Thursday, September 5th, when the Ravens head to Kansas City to face the Chiefs in a rematch of the AFC Championship Game.

The Chiefs opened as modest favorites at home in hopes of starting its quest for a three-peat off in a resounding fashion against a quality Ravens team that has the reigning MVP Lamar Jackson under center, but there is betting action towards the underdog.

As longtime Las Vegas bookmaker Jimmy Vaccaro, currently with the South Point, notes, the Ravens are receiving a good amount of attention in the early betting process. One big bettor took the three points with Baltimore on opening night, and given how far away it is from kickoff, the Las Vegas book is likely staying with the Chiefs as 2.5-point home favorites before more action comes in on the home favoirte.

The Ravens closed as 4.5-point home favorites in the AFC Championship Game against the Chiefs at home, but struggled to generate many scoring chances, losing 17-10 to KC. Now, one bettor is wagering that the spread has shifted too far in favor of the two-time defending champions.

For what it's worth, the Ravens are 12-2 against the spread as an underdog when Jackson starts, 9-5 straight up. Can he do it again? Here are the updated odds for the opening game of the season.

Every NFL Team's Odds to Win the Super Bowl in 2024 Season

Every NFL Team’s Odds to Win the Super Bowl in 2024 Season

The NFL offseason continues on, but that doesn't have to stop us from keeping an eye on the NFL futures market!

The top of the Super Bowl oddsboard is dictated by the two teams that made it to the big game last season with the San Francisco 49ers slightly favored over the Kansas City Chiefs to win Super Bowl 59.

Patrick Mahomes and the Chiefs are once again viewed as a true contender to win the Super Bowl for a third straight year with the team set to return a majority of its core, but it's the 49ers who have the edge at the top of the oddsboard.

It's worth noting that the Niners are in the far easier conference relative to the AFC, and that's indicated in the odds. After the two aforementioned teams, the AFC has seven of the 12 other teams that have shorter than 25-1 odds.

Moreso, three of the next four teams are in the AFC with the Ravens, Bengals and Bills all viewed as legitimate threats to win the Super Bowl this season.

With training camp still a few months away, it's worth keeping an eye on more movement in the Super Bowl odds ahead of the 2024 season.
