Patrick Mahomes was the MVP in both games.

#5 - Xavier Worthy (+3000)
Xavier Worthy has recently been heavily involved in the Kansas City Chiefs offense, recording at least five receptions and exceeding 40 yards in his past seven games. He has also scored a touchdown in three of his past four games and set a season-high with 85 yards last week. His recent surge makes him a dark horse candidate for winning this year's Super Bowl MVP.
#4 - Travis Kelce (+1500)
Travis Kelce was quiet against the Buffalo Bills in the AFC championship game but set a season-high with 117 yards the week before. He ranks among the top two players of all time in just about every receiving category for the NFL playoffs, so it's not hard to imagine him turning in a big performance and potentially winning the MVP.
#3 - Jalen Hurts (+400)
Jalen Hurts has been highly efficient for the Philadelphia Eagles in this year's playoffs. He has completed 69.6% of his passes and has totaled seven touchdowns (three passing and four rushing). He has also yet to throw an interception this postseason, so if the Philadelphia Eagles can pull off an upset, he has a strong chance of being named the game's MVP.
#2 - Saquon Barkley (+220)
Saquon Barkley turned in an incredible 2024 NFL season in his first year with the Eagles, exceeding 2,000 rushing yards. He has kept his dominance rolling in the playoffs, totaling 442 rushing yards and five touchdowns across his three games.
He is the focal point of their offense, exceeding 115 rushing yards in each of his past five games, making him a prime candidate to win the Super Bowl MVP.
#1 - Patrick Mahomes (+105)
Patrick Mahomes has already helped the Chiefs win three Super Bowl rings and was named the MVP of the game for all three of them. They are slight favorites to win another for this season, so it makes sense why he is the current favorite to win the award for a fourth time, bringing him within one of Tom Brady for the most ever by any player.
