7 non-QBs that can win Super Bowl MVP
If not Patrick Mahomes or Jalen Hurts, then who?

When the confetti falls at the Superdome on Sunday night, it’s a pretty good bet that the Super Bowl 59 MVP trophy will be awarded to a quarterback. In the first 58 Super Bowls, a quarterback has taken home the honor 33 times. Add in Patrick Mahomes’ potential GOAT status as the first quarterback to win back-to-back-to-back rings and the narrative is set.
But what if we get a different kind of outcome? If, say, the Eagles win with a less-than-dominant Hurts performance, then what? Could a defensive player take it home for just the 11th time in history?
Here are seven non-QBs that I could see holding up the MVP trophy, accompanied by their odds to win it on FanDuel Sportsbook.
