Tom Brady has won more Super Bowl MVPs than any other player, but he is not the favorite for the award in Super Bowl LV.
Kansas City quarterback Patrick Mahomes is the favorite to be named Super Bowl MVP. Brady is next at +190.
Mahomes won the Super Bowl MVP last year when he netted three scores, including two fourth-quarter passes that helped bring the Chiefs past the San Francisco 49ers for a 31-20 victory in Super Bowl LIV.
Brady was named MVP in four of his six Super Bowl victories, his last award coming in 2017 when he helped the New England Patriots overcome a 28-3 deficit to beat the Atlanta Falcons.
The winning team fullback has won MVP 29 times, including in eight of the last 11 Super Bowls. But there are some intriguing playmakers in both teams. Chiefs coach Tyreek Hill and tighthead Travis Kelce are each 13-1. Buccaneers quarterback Leonard Fournette is 25-1, followed by Clyde Edwards-Helaire of Kansas City at 30-1.
The receivers from Tampa Bay, Mike Evans and Chris Godwin, are each 30-1. Buccaneers linebacker Shaquil Barrett and Chiefs safety Tyrann Mathieu have the best chance of defending 40-1.
Super Bowl LV kicks off Feb. 7 at Raymond James Stadium in Tampa, Florida. The Chiefs are unanimous three-point favorites over the Buccaneers.
