2025-26 NFL Rookie of the Year Odds
Throwing Darts
LATEST UPDATE: Jaxson Dart first entered the chat in Week 4, when he made his first NFL start for the New York Giants. The rookie QB led a 21-18 upset of the Los Angeles Chargers.
Prior to being announced the starter in that game, Dart was +2500, and pre-Week 3, he was +3300 in BetMGM's 2026 NFL Offensive Rookie of the Year odds. But once he was named starter, before evening playing, he surged to +1200.
After that first win, he leapt to the +450 third choice. Two weeks later, Dart and the Giants knocked off defending Super Bowl champion Philadelphia. BetMGM moved Dart to -135 chalk, and he's been the favorite ever since, even though New York (2-7) hasn't won another game.
Dart moved from -105 entering Week 9 to -135 entering Week 10. That's just ahead of Tampa Bay Buccaneers wideout Emeka Egbuka, who slid from +140 to +175. Indianapolis Colts tight end Tyler Warren remained the third choice, but slipped from +550 to +700.
All three players opened at significantly longer odds: Dart and Warren at +3500, and Egbuka at +4000.
Egbuka continues to lead the ticket count and money in BetMGM's 2025 NFL Offensive Rookie of the Year odds. Rounding out the top five in tickets are three players deemed as having no shot at this point:
- Chargers running back Omarion Hampton (+10000)
- Titans QB Cam Ward (+25000)
- Jaguars wideout Travis Hunter (off the board)
- Raiders running back Ashton Jeanty (+2200)
Following Egbuka in money are:
- Ward
- Dart
- Jeanty
- Browns QB Shedeur Sanders (+50000)
One Giant Step
In NFL Defensive Rookie of the Year odds, New York Giants linebacker Abdul Carter remains the favorite. Jackson is at +130 entering Week 10, just a tick off his Week 9 +125 price.
Not far behind is Philadelphia Eagles linebacker Jihaad Campbell, the +275 second choice. Carter and Campbell have been right at the top much of the season.
That's not the case for the Seattle Seahawks' Nick Emmanwori. The safety opened at +3000, and that's where he was entering Week 1 before suffering a high ankle sprain. He missed three games, slid out as far as +4000, then was taken off the board altogether.
But Emmanwori is now the +300 third choice, right in the thick of 2025-26 NFL Defensive Rookie of the Year odds. He's got 22 tackles over the last four games, including 15 solo.
That said, he's miles below the leaders in tickets and money, at No. 10 in both measures. Carter and Cleveland Browns linebacker Carson Schwesinger (+1400 fourth choice) are Nos. 1-2 in tickets, both taking five times more bets than Emmanwori.
And Carter is lapping the field in money, with nearly twice as much as No. 2 Schwesinger and almost 10 times that of Emmanwori. Campbell is fifth in tickets and third in money.
