on a five-game winning and playing some high-quality offensive football along the way, quarterback Mac Jones has now emerged as the frontrunner to win the NFL’s Offensive Rookie of the Year award. The first-round draft pick has overtaken Cincinnati Bengals (-1.5) wide receiver Ja’Marr Chase, who was the betting favorite earlier during the season.
According to DraftKings Sportsbook, the two are head and shoulders above the other first-year players on this side of the ball:
QB Mac Jones, New England Patriots: +100
WR Ja’Marr Chase, Cincinnati Bengals: +125
: +1000 : +3500 : +3500 : +3500 : +3500
Through 11 games this season, Jones has hit on 245 of his 349 pass attempts for a completion rate of 70.
