With NFL Honors set for tonight at 9 p.m., prediction markets continue to paint a clear picture of how voters are expected to land. Odds from Kalshi show dominant favorites across nearly every major award, with only marginal intrigue remaining in a few categories. Below is a category-by-category breakdown based on current market percentages.


Coach of the Year

  • Mike Vrabel: 88%
  • Mike Macdonald: 6%

Vrabel remains firmly in control of this race, with the market showing little belief in a late surge from the field.


Offensive Player of the Year

  • Jaxon Smith-Njigba: 87%
  • Bijan Robinson: 7%

Smith-Njigba continues to lead comfortably, though this market shows slightly more dispersion than others.


Defensive Rookie of the Year

  • Carson Schwesinger: 93%
  • Nick Emmanwori: 9%

Schwesinger holds a commanding edge, making him one of the clearer favorites on the board.


Comeback Player of the Year

  • Christian McCaffrey: 96%
  • Trevor Lawrence: 4%

McCaffrey is one of the most decisive favorites across all NFL Honors categories.


Most Valuable Player

  • Matthew Stafford: 91%
  • Drake Maye: 10%

Stafford remains the overwhelming MVP favorite, with Maye the only challenger drawing notable market support.


Offensive Rookie of the Year

  • Tetairoa McMillan: 89%
  • Tyler Shough: 12%

While McMillan still leads comfortably, this is one of the few markets showing a measurable secondary option.


Defensive Player of the Year

  • Myles Garrett: 99%
  • Devin Lloyd: 1%

Garrett stands as the strongest favorite of any award, with the market pricing this outcome as virtually certain.


Bottom line: Kalshi’s percentages suggest NFL Honors will be largely about confirmation rather than surprise, with dominant frontrunners holding firm across nearly every major award heading into tonight’s ceremony.
