Joe Burrow might not have the best odds to win next season’s NFL MVP, but he’s still making waves with bettors at one sportsbook.
According to BetMGM, the Bengals quarterback currently has the highest ticket (14.6%) and the highest handle (27%) to take home the league’s highest honor in 2025, thus making him the biggest liability in this spot.
And he’s not even the favorite.
Right now, it’s Lamar Jackson with the shortest odds at +550. He’s followed by Josh Allen at +600 and Patrick Mahomes at +650.
Burrow is fourth on the board at +700.
After completing the 2024 season with 4,918 yards, 43 touchdowns and nine interceptions, Burrow finished fourth in MVP voting.
Let’s check out some of the odds at BetMGM as of May 29.
Joe Burrow
Offensive Player of the Year: +5000 (bet $10 to win $510 total)
Over/Under Passing Yards: 4150.5
Over/Under Passing TDs: 33.5
Bengals
AFC No. 1 seed: +950 (bet $10 to win $105 total)
AFC North winner: +200 (bet $10 to win $30 total)
Super Bowl winner: +2000 (bet $10 to win $210 total)
More confident in Jared Goff or Joe Burrow to return to a Super Bowl?

Could Burrow finally take home the prestigious award for the first time next season?
FOX Sports NFL writer Henry McKenna is certainly high on him.
“His 2024 season was a fascinating demonstration of man vs. team,” McKenna wrote. “The Bengals nearly dragged Burrow into irrelevance, and Burrow nearly dragged them back to relevance. Cincinnati finished 9-8, just out of the playoff picture.

“And Burrow deserved serious consideration for MVP. He was that good.”
On “The Facility,” co-host Emmanuel Acho explained that, when it comes to NFL QBs, Joe Burrow has “it.”
“‘It’ to me is, if a play needs to be made, Joe Burrow will make the play,” Acho said. “If a game needs to be won — more often than not — I trust Joe Burrow to win it.”
Speaking of trust, based on recent comments, Burrow also has full confidence in himself.
“I’ve had injuries that kind of change the offseason mindset a little bit,” Burrow admitted. “This year I don’t have any of those, and that’s great, because I can focus on getting better all around and becoming a more well-rounded player.”

2025 NBA Finals: It’s Pacers-Thunder! Here are three things to know about the unexpected matchup
With a blowout victory against the New York Knicks in Game 6 of the Eastern Conference finals, the Indiana Pacers clinched a berth in the NBA Finals against the Oklahoma City Thunder.The Thunder defeated the Minnesota Timberwolves in five games of the Western Conference finals.AdvertisementAdvertisementAdvertisementHere are three things to know about the 78th edition of the NBA Finals ...Shai Gilgeous-Alexander vs. Tyrese HaliburtonOklahoma City's Shai Gilgeous-Alexander is the first point guard to win MVP since Russell Westbrook won the award for the Thunder in 2017. The 6-foot-6, 200-pound Gilgeous-Alexander is a surgical superstar, knifing his way to his spots, drawing contact along the way. Some people call him a free-throw merchant when he might be the most complete scoring guard since Michael Jordan — at least since Kobe Bryant.Gilgeous-Alexander averaged a league-leading 32.7 points per game (on 52/38/90 shooting splits) […]
Phillies’ Jesús Luzardo felt at his best. Then he gave up 12 runs to the Brewers
Before rain and runs and raucous boos drove fans out of Citizens Bank Park on Saturday, Jesús Luzardo took the mound around 4 p.m. The Phillies lefty threw to catcher J.T. Realmuto as Mobb Deep’s “Survival of the Fittest” played, the crowd filing in and wind whipping around them. Luzardo felt good. No, not just good: “My arm felt like a whip,” he said. It was the best he’d felt in a month and a half. AdvertisementThen came a second-pitch single by Jackson Chourio, who soon stole second. A walk. A Christian Yelich line drive to left-field to score Chourio. A three-run homer that turned Philadelphia’s beloved Rhys Hoskins into a booed enemy as he rounded the bases. Just like that, it was 4-0 Brewers with no outs in the first. “I felt as athletic as I have all year,” Luzardo said. “I […]
Knicks offseason outlook: New York’s top-heavy roster could really use some support
It took the Knicks less than a year to acquire OG Anunoby, Mikal Bridges and Karl-Anthony Towns.The mission was clear: Put significant talent around the scoring proficiency and playmaking acumen of point guard Jalen Brunson.AdvertisementAdvertisementAdvertisementFor the most part, it's worked. They wouldn't have made the Eastern Conference finals if it hadn't.Yet, in the process of gathering this All-Star team of starters, the Knicks relinquished depth — virtually all of it.That lack of depth ultimately put them at a disadvantage against the Pacers, who kept throwing bodies at the stretched-out Knicks and wore them down in six games.In the middle of it all stands Tom Thibodeau, the highly competent yet superbly stubborn head coach who played all of his starters more than 35 minutes per game in the regular season.(Before you ask, no he did not scale down those minutes in […]

Jones promptly called for Correa to be ejected, infuriating the shortstop, who had to be held back from Jones by his teammates.Meanwhile, Baldelli, similarly furious, came over to argue his case. Jones quickly ejected him as well.Twins first baseman Ty France, a former Mariner getting […]
