Cooper Kupp was the last non-quarterback to win Super Bowl MVP. The Los Angeles Rams’ receiver won the award in Super Bowl LVI on Feb. 13, 2022.

Kupp had eight receptions for 92 yards and two touchdowns, including the game-winning score with fewer than two minutes remaining. It gave the Rams a 23-20 win over the Cincinnati Bengals.

It was the eighth time a receiver won Super Bowl MVP, the second-most common position to win. Quarterbacks have won 32 times.

After advancing to Super Bowl LVIII, Patrick Mahomes is attempting to give quarterbacks a 33rd MVP win. Mahomes is currently the favorite (+125), followed by Brock Purdy (+220), and Christian McCaffrey (+450).
