Week 8 Update: Derrick Henry Still Leads the Pack for 2024 NFL Offensive Player of the Year!

2024 NFL Offensive Player of the Year odds: Henry remains favorite after Week 8

2024 NFL Offensive Player of the Year odds indicate that Derrick Henry remains the favorite after Week 8, continuing to build on his impressive performance this season.

Last year, Christian McCaffrey of the San Francisco 49ers took home the award, showcasing his exceptional skills with 1,459 rushing yards and 14 rushing touchdowns, complemented by 564 receiving yards and seven receiving touchdowns.

Unfortunately for fans, McCaffrey will not compete for the OPOY title this year, as he has been placed on injured reserve.

With McCaffrey sidelined, the question arises: who will emerge as the league’s premier offensive star this season?

The latest odds from DraftKings Sportsbook, updated as of October 29, provide insight into potential candidates.

NFL OFFENSIVE PLAYER OF THE YEAR ODDS:

Derrick Henry, Ravens RB: +120 (bet $10 to win $22 total)
Saquon Barkley, Eagles RB: +350 (bet $10 to win $45 total)
Justin Jefferson, Vikings WR: +450 (bet $10 to win $55 total)
Ja’Marr Chase, Bengals WR: +1200 (bet $10 to win $130 total)
CeeDee Lamb, Cowboys WR: +1500 (bet $10 to win $160 total)
Lamar Jackson, Ravens QB: +2000 (bet $10 to win $210 total)

The Baltimore Ravens have been on a roll, winning five of their last six games, largely due to the combined efforts of quarterback Lamar Jackson and running back Derrick Henry.

In Week 7, Henry showcased his prowess with an impressive 169 rushing yards on just 15 carries, solidifying his status as a top contender.

Currently, Henry leads the league in both rushing yards (946) and rushing touchdowns (9), reaffirming his dominance on the field.

Having previously earned the Offensive Player of the Year title in 2020, Henry’s experience and skill make him a formidable candidate once again.
