According to BetMGM, even the Jacksonville Jaguars’ top stars will be longshots to win the MVP award in 2020. Whether it’s quarterbacks Nick Foles or Gardner Minshew II or running back Leonard Fournette, all three were given the same exact odds of 150/1, which are the same figures future rookie selections Tua Tagovailoa and Justin Herbert received.
After two consecutive disappointing seasons, it isn’t exactly shocking to see each of the Jags’ top stars with such low odds because the Jags have a lot of work to do around them to become postseason contenders. Both Minshew and Foles will have a battle to start this offseason, but even when that is decided, they’ll need upgrades on the offensive line, at tight end, and at receiver. The Jags’ offensive line woes also apply to Leonard Fournette as well.
As for those who topped the list, Patrick Mahomes came in with the best odds to win the annual award, with odds of 4/1. Behind him were quarterbacks Russell Wilson and Lamar Jackson, who had odds of 5/1 and 6/1, respectively.
