Odds have arrived for who will win Most Valuable Player of Super Bowl LVI between the Cincinnati Bengals and Los Angeles Rams (-4.5 at Tipico), and to no one’s surprise they favor the quarterbacks.
QBs have dominated the award from the beginning, when Bart Starr was MVP of the first two Super Bowls and quarterbacks won the next two, as well. In the last 15 years, eight different quarterbacks have won Super Bowl MVP, and two of them — Tom Brady and Eli Manning — have more than one.
There’s still a glimmer of hope for a couple other positions, however. Of the four non-QB MVP’s in the last 15 years, two were wide receivers and two were linebackers. Quarterbacks might be the safest bet but they aren’t exactly a lock.
Here’s a look at odds for the two passers and the players with the next-best odds to win the award and take that much-coveted trip to Disney World.
