2025-26 NFL MVP odds

Josh Allen, QB, Bills: +150

What to know: Allen is the reigning MVP, and through five weeks (4-1), he has nine passing TDs, three rushing TDs and two interceptions. However, he has had a pick in each of the last two weeks, and his Bills suffered their first loss of the season in Week 5 — at home to division rival New England.

Patrick Mahomes, QB, Chiefs: +370

What to know: Mahomes is the only two-time regular-season MVP in the top eight, and on the season, he has eight TDs and two picks, one of which he threw in the Chiefs' Monday night loss to Jacksonville. K.C. is now 2-3 on the season, and it will face the 4-1 Lions in Week 6.

Justin Herbert, QB, Chargers: +1000

What to know: After wins over all three division opponents, the Chargers suffered their first loss of the season in Week 4 at the Giants, and followed that up with a Week 5 loss at home to the Commanders. In that defeat, Herbert threw for fewer than 200 yards for the first time this season, and he threw at least one pick for the third straight week.

Baker Mayfield, QB, Buccaneers: +1100

What to know: The Bucs are 4-1, and Mayfield is cooking. He has 10 TDs and one pick on the season, and three of those four Tampa wins have come on the road, including a Week 5 win at Seattle. In that win over the Seahawks, Mayfield was 29-for-33 passing for 379 yards and two scores.

Jordan Love, QB, Packers: +1200

What to know: Love had an impressive Week 4, throwing for 337 yards and three TDs at Dallas. However, his Packers failed to earn a win for the second straight week, instead leaving Big D with a 40-40 tie. He has completed at least 72% of his passes in three of four games this season. G.B. had a bye in Week 5.

Matthew Stafford, QB, Rams: +1200

What to know: The Rams are 3-2, and both of their losses involved some bad luck on their end. However, Stafford has 11 TDs and just two picks, and in a Week 5 loss to the 49ers, he threw for 389 yards and three touchdowns.

Jared Goff, QB, Lions: +1500

What to know: The Lions have won four straight, and in those four wins, Goff has 11 touchdowns and one interception. He completed 19 of 23 passes in a Week 5 win over Cincinnati, and tacked on 258 yards and three TDs.

Jalen Hurts, QB, Eagles: +1600

What to know: Hurts is the consummate winner at QB, but his Eagles did stumble in Week 5, suffering their first loss of the season. He threw a season-high 38 passes in the loss, completing 23 of them for a season-high 280 yards, along with two touchdowns.
