After a record-breaking 5,000-yard passing season from Justin Herbert, it should be no surprise that expectations for the third-year quarterback will be as high as they’ve ever been heading into the 2022.
And it’s not just from Chargers fans, either. According to DraftKings Sportsbooks, Herbert has opened up their 2022-2023 MVP predictions with the fourth-best odds to win the honor (+1000). He sits behind only the Josh Allen (+700), Patrick Mahomes (+750), and Aaron Rodgers (+800).
The rest of the top ten is made up of Joe Burrow (+1200), Dak Prescott (+1400), Matthew Stafford (+1400), Kyler Murray (+1800), Russell Wilson (+2500), and Lamar Jackson (+2800).
