With NFL training camp starting in one month, NFL award odds are beginning to arise including odds for the Most Valuable Player (MVP) and Rookie of the Year awards. Six teams in NFL history have never had an NFL MVP Award winner on their roster: Buccaneers, Cardinals, Jaguars, Jets, Saints, and Texans. The NFL MVP Award has become a quarterback-driven award, and all six teams have a solid player under center. FanDuel Sportsbook has all six quarterbacks listed with odds to win the Award.
CJ Stroud +1000 to Win NFL MVP
![Can These Players End Their Team's NFL MVP Drought in 2024? 1 Houston Texans, CJ Stroud](https://gridironheroics.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/image-50-1024x735.jpg)
After taking the league by storm as a rookie, CJ Stroud has the most favorable odds to win their team’s first NFL MVP Award. Stroud has odds of +1000 putting him in a tie for the 3rd most favorable odds, at FanDuel Sportsbook.
CJ Stroud had one of the most productive rookie seasons we have seen in quite some time. Stroud recorded 4,108 yards and 23 touchdowns and led the Texans to the playoffs. Stroud would need to put up the same level of production and team success to have a shot at MVP in 2024. He will have more assistance this season as the Texans added Pro Bowl wide receiver Stefon Diggs in the offseason.
Trevor Lawrence +2500 to Win NFL MVP

The Player with the second-most favorable odds to win their team’s first NFL MVP Award Trevor Lawrence. The Jacksonville Jaguars quarterback has odds of +2500 putting him in a tie for the 11th most favorable odds, at FanDuel Sportsbook.
In 2023 Trevor Lawrence put up his second straight 4,000-yard season, however, his interception total jumped from 8 to 14. Reducing turnovers will need to be a top priority in 2024 for Lawrence and the Jaguars if they want to compete in the AFC South. The Jaguars lost wide receiver Calvin Ridley, but were able to replace him with Gabe Davis and Brian Thomas Jr,
As long as the Jaguars are winning games, Lawrence can find himself in the MVP conversation, though his odds of winning the award aren’t super likely.
Aaron Rodgers +2500 to Win NFL MVP

Aaron Rodgers’ 2023 campaign ended before it even started with an Achilles injury on the opening drive of the season. The New York Jets are in desperate need of a longtime quarterback to have a sensational season. Aaron Rodgers has odds of +2500 putting him in a tie for the 11th most favorable odds, at FanDuel Sportsbook.
Narrative is one of the biggest driving forces for NFL MVP voters, and Aaron Rodgers could potentially have the biggest narrative in the field in 2024. A former MVP coming off of a torn achilles to end the Jets playoff drought with the New York Media boosting the story, that would captivate voters.
Now if he can do it at his age coming off of that season-ending achilles injury is yet to be seen, but this ticket does have some value with those circumstances.
Kyler Murray +5000 to Win NFL MVP
![Can These Players End Their Team's NFL MVP Drought in 2024? 4 NFL Kyler Murray Arizona Cardinals](https://gridironheroics.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/USATSI21885987-9cf632b6-af4f-42c1-b076-154d3b19ea26.webp)
After missing the beginning of the season a year ago Kyler Murray has the fourth-most favorable odds to win their team’s first NFL MVP Award. Murray has odds of +5000 putting him in a tie for the 18th most favorable odds, at FanDuel Sportsbook.
One of the more fascinating stories of the 2023 NFL season was how hard the Arizona Cardinals played under head coach Johnathan Gannon with their under-manned roster. When Kyler Murray returned to the lineup the Cardinals were able to go 3-5, beating two playoff teams on the road, and losing one game on a missed field goal.
If the Cardinals can compete in the NFC Kyler will most certainly be in the MVP conversation, but he may be a year away from being a true contender for the award.
Baker Mayfield +6000 to Win NFL MVP
![Can These Players End Their Team's NFL MVP Drought in 2024? 5 USATSI 22125664 168400517 lowres](https://gridironheroics.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/02/USATSI_22125664_168400517_lowres-1024x683.jpg)
After returning to starting quarterback form in 2023, Baker Mayfield has the fifth-most favorable odds to win their team’s first NFL MVP Award. The Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback has odds of +6000 putting him in a tie for the 20th most favorable odds, at FanDuel Sportsbook.
Baker’s best chance to generate enough juice for the award might’ve been a season ago. While the Buccaneers can still compete in the weaker NFC for a playoff spot, Baker would have to nearly lead the league in multiple passing statistical categories to make a run at winning the award.
Derek Carr +15000 to Win NFL MVP
![Can These Players End Their Team's NFL MVP Drought in 2024? 6 New Orleans Saints](https://gridironheroics.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/01/4-Derek-Carr-New-Orleans-Saints-1024x573.jpg)
The Player with the sixth-most favorable odds to win their team’s first NFL MVP Award Derek Carr. The New Orleans Saints quarterback has odds of +15000 putting him in a tie for the 27th most favorable odds, at FanDuel Sportsbook.
Much like Baker Mayfield, it will be hard to foresee Derek Carr generating enough backing from the voters to win the award. NFL voters are often captivated by new stories and team success, and while the Saints could be a sneaky contender in the NFC Wild Card race, Carr likely won’t receive much backing from the voters or media.
