Burrow, at +100 odds, upset the favorite, Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott (-140).
The Bengals' quarterback tore both his ACL and MCL after only ten games in 2020, but he showed no signs of the serious injury in 2021. Burrow led his team to the AFC Championship and a Super Bowl berth in his first complete season.
Burrow led the league in completion rate (70%) while throwing for 4,611 yards (sixth-most) and a 6.5% touchdown rate (third-most). The sophomore QB has already thrown for more touchdowns than any quarterback in franchise history (34).
The LSU product delivered when it mattered most, throwing for 971 and eight touchdowns over the final two weeks of the regular season to clinch a division title.
