Bettors are starting to look at Super Bowl LVIII futures bets. And besides picking a winner, a popular Super Bowl wager is the game’s MVP.

Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson is the prohibitive favorite to win regular-season MVP.

Jackson’s odds are -10000 (bet $10 to win a profit of 10 cents) for regular-season MVP, and he’s also the favorite to win MVP of Super Bowl XLIII, which is Feb. 11 in Las Vegas.

Jackson is at +320, with San Francisco 49ers quarterback Brock Purdy second at +370.

Making a huge move up the list is Detroit Lions quarterback Jared Goff, who surged to +1200 from +2900 after leading the Lions to their first playoff win since 1992.
