Overview
- Josh Allen of the Buffalo Bills is the frontrunner for the 2024 NFL MVP award, despite a subpar performance in Week 16 against the Patriots.
- Allen’s season highlights include leading the Bills to key victories over top teams and becoming the first player in NFL history to record three passing and three rushing touchdowns in a single game.
- Lamar Jackson, the reigning MVP, remains a strong contender with standout performances in recent weeks, including eight touchdown passes and only one interception over the past two games.
- Saquon Barkley of the Philadelphia Eagles has impressed with over 2,000 scrimmage yards this season, but his MVP chances are hindered by the Eagles' inconsistent team performance.
- Other notable candidates include Jared Goff, Patrick Mahomes, and Sam Darnold, though their odds remain significantly lower than Allen and Jackson’s.
