The race for the 2025 NFL MVP award is heating up as Week 10 comes to a close. Going into Sunday, Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes and Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen were tied as the favorites to win the award, with both having +350 odds, according to DraftKings.

The New England Patriots are on a seven-game winning run with quarterback Drake Maye leading the offense in his second year with the team.

The Chiefs are facing the Bills, which means starting quarterbacks Patrick Mahomes and Josh Allen will face each other for the ninth time. This time, they’re the top two favorites to win the league’s Most Valuable Player award. Mahomes is the current favorite with +125 odds, while Allen is second at +350.

Mahomes may believe he needs to improve in his progressions, but with all due respect to the best quarterback of his generation, the true area of second-half improvement lies in all those around him.

Drake Maye's leap and Jonathan Taylor's historic campaign have come to define the 2025 NFL Awards race. Here are the leading candidates for every major award.
