The Arizona Cardinals have started off tremendously in the 2020 NFL season with victories over the San Francisco 49ers and the Washington Football Team bringing their record to an unexpected 2-0 on the year so far.
Quarterback Kyler Murray has played extremely well building off of a successful rookie campaign where he won the Offensive Rookie of the Year. award. The second-year star signal-caller may have a good chance to bring some different hardware to his trophy case.
According to BetMGM, Kyler Murray’s odds for winning the 2020 NFL MVP have greatly increased. Entering the season, he was given +2500 odds to win it. Now, after two wins and two fantastic games individually, his odds have shortened to +1200, following their 30-15 victory against the Washington Football Team. This means that a $100 bet on Murray to win the MVP will now net a $1,200 winning instead of $2,500 winning for the same $100 bet before the season.
Kyler Murray has 518 passing yards on the season with two touchdowns and two interceptions. He’s made the most difference with his legs as he leads all quarterbacks with 158 rushing yards and has three rushing touchdowns on the year.
If he keeps playing the way that he is, Kyler Murray’s MVP odds would be sure to increase even more.
