McCaffrey took over as the market favorite following Week 9. After weeks sitting second on the board, McCaffrey displaced Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott as the favorite to win Comeback Player of the Year.
Prescott’s meager performance against Arizona dropped him from +100 to +170. Despite the Cowboys taking a bye in Week 10, Prescott moved from +170 to +145 to win the award.
In relation to his preseason price, Prescott’s odds have moved from +375, while McCaffrey dropped from +350.
Oddsmakers list one other player inside +500: Lions edge rusher Aidan Hutchinson (+425). Hutchinson began the season priced at +250, good for market favorite status.
He also finds himself in contention for NFL Defensive Player of the Year.
Hutchinson began the season as the favorite in both awards markets and is currently more likely to win Comeback Player of the Year.
