The Comeback Trail for Starting Quarterbacks
As the NFL season enters its second half, several starting quarterbacks are making a push for the Comeback Player of the Year award after overcoming injuries. According to DraftKings Sportsbook, as of November 27, 2024, the odds to win the award are:
Joe Burrow, Bengals: +100 (bet $10 to win $20 total)
Kirk Cousins, Falcons: +230 (bet $10 to win $33 total)
Kyler Murray, Cardinals: +600 (bet $10 to win $70 total)
J.K. Dobbins, Chargers: +1000 (bet $10 to win $110 total)
Nick Chubb, Browns: +1000 (bet $10 to win $110 total)

In a surprising turn of events, Joe Burrow has taken over as the favorite, moving from +160 to +100. Despite the Bengals’ 4-7 record, Burrow has been impressive this season, ranking third in passing yards (3,028) and tied for first in touchdowns (27) with only four interceptions.
