Bo Nix edges closer to Jayden Daniels in rookie of the year odds

Commanders quarterback Jayden Daniels got off to a hot start this season, quickly becoming the betting favorite to win the NFL’s offensive rookie of the year award and has maintained his status as the favorite ever since. But a new candidate is starting to win over Daniels.

Broncos quarterback Bo Nix is ​​the No. 2 prospect for offensive rookie of the year and is quickly gaining on Daniels.

After Sunday’s games, Daniels is a -180 favorite for offensive rookie of the year, while Nix is ​​+150 and no one else is even close. This is a significant change from last week’s odds, when Daniels was -400 and Nix was +300.

On Sunday, Nix completed 25 of 42 passes for 273 yards with two touchdowns and no interceptions as the Broncos beat the Raiders to improve to 7-5 on the season. Daniels completed 25 of 38 passes for 275 yards with two touchdowns and two interceptions as the Commanders lost 34-26 to the Cowboys to fall to 7-5 on the season. This led to increased betting on Nix.

With five games left in the season for both quarterbacks, the seemingly runaway rookie of the year race now appears to be coming to an end.
