Carson Wentz shouldn't be worried about suffering from a "sophomore slump."

Way back in September, when the Philadelphia Eagles were lighting up the Cleveland Browns, Chicago Bears, and Pittsburgh Steelers, quarterback Carson Wentz was favored by Canadian-based Bovada.lv to win Offensive Rookie of the Year honors.

Wentz's odds have since plummeted. After updating their season prop bets, Wentz is now the third most likely Rookie of the Year winner, trailing far behind Dallas Cowboys running back Ezekiel Elliott and quarterback Dak Prescott.

 RookieOdds 
 Ezekiel Elliott, Cowboys-500 
 Dak Prescott, Cowboys+275 
 Carson Wentz, Eagles+3300 


If you bet that Elliott will win, you would have to plunk down $500 just to win $100. Meanwhile, a $100 bet on Wentz would win you $3300 if he took home those honors.

Surprisingly, Elliott is also the favorite to win league MVP over quarterbacks Tom Brady and Matt Ryan. Bovada's full MVP odds:
