Super Bowl MVP odds had Jalen Hurts listed third at +375 behind Patrick Mahomes and Saquon Barkley leading up to kickoff.
The Philadelphia Eagles QB won the award as his team jumped out to a huge 24-0 Super Bowl halftime lead and never looked back en route to a 40-22 victory. The trophy once again went to a quarterback after Mahomes won each of the last two trophies.
Let's take a look at the Super Bowl MVP odds as they were leading up to game time on Sunday, February 9.

Super Bowl MVP favorites
Patrick Mahomes (+105)
Patrick Mahomes put up an uninspiring stat line vs. the Texans in the Divisional Round, as he threw for just 177 yards. However, he kicked it into high gear in the AFC Championship, throwing for 245 yards (and running for another 43) while accounting for three total touchdowns.
The Kansas City Chiefs quarterback is looking for his fourth total MVP award, and sits at just over even money after beginning the postseason at +450.
Saquon Barkley (+240)
Saquon Barkley has been a beast this postseason. His 442 total rushing yards and five touchdowns have made him the favorite from the Philadelphia Eagles — something truly special as Barkley's MVP odds being this high is unprecedented.
He stands to pay out bettors who wagered on him before the playoffs began in a big way as he opened at a healthy 21/1.
Jalen Hurts (+375)
Jalen Hurts has come under fire for some unimpressive passing numbers of late. However, he carved up Washington for 246 yards while scampering for another 16 yards and four total touchdowns in the NFC Championship Game.
Hurts opened at 15/1 but his dual-threat ability — and history being on the side of QBs winning — make him a logical selection in Super Bowl 59.

How is the Super Bowl MVP decided?
The Super Bowl MVP is decided by a panel of 16 NFL journalists (writers and broadcasters), as well as a fan vote (online and mobile), after the conclusion of the game.
The panel makes up 80% of the voting, while the fan vote makes up the remaining 20%. The player voted as having the most significant impact on their team’s success will be honored as the Most Valuable Player of the Super Bowl.
How to read Super Bowl MVP odds
When learning how to bet on the Super Bowl, bettors must first understand how the odds display and how to read them. The Super Bowl MVP odds are displayed in a list format with corresponding odds for each player considered an MVP candidate. The odds will reflect the implied probability of that player winning MVP.
Some sportsbooks will have a very long and detailed list with plenty of players available. Other books will list just the skill positions and key defensive contributors while adding a "field" or "other" option, which includes any player not officially listed.
Most sportsbooks in North America will list Super Bowl MVP odds in American format:
- Patrick Mahomes -120
- Jalen Hurts +187
This means that a $100 bet on Mahomes would have profited $83 (or a $120 bet would win $100), or a $100 bet on Hurts would have profited $187. Use our odds converter to switch American odds to decimal or fractional and to see how much you could win using different odds.

List of previous Super Bowl MVP winners
A Super Bowl MVP has been named in all 59 championship games, going back to 1967 when Green Bay Packers quarterback Bart Starr was named the very first Super Bowl Most Valuable Player.
Starr is one of the 33 quarterbacks to be named Super Bowl MVP. Running backs and wide receivers have each won MVP eight times, while a defensive player has been named MVP five times and a special teams player has won the award once.
Betting on the Super Bowl MVP odds was made popular in the late 1990s, as online sports betting began to boom, but has only recently been allowed in regulated land-based sportsbooks (such as Las Vegas/Nevada) since 2016.
