The Offensive Player of the Year race has rarely been more tightly bunched. The NFL is now in a passing boom, with wide receivers challenging the dominance running backs have had with this award.
Last season, it was a back-and-forth competition between eventual winner Christian McCaffrey and Tyreek Hill, as both dominated at the position for their respective teams.
Following an eventful Week 11, Saquon Barkley spearheads the latest NFL odds, with Derrick Henry and Ja'Marr Chase close behind.

Ja'Marr Chase (+500 to +650)
