We’re about a month away from the start of the NFL season, but with the beginning of preseason play only a few days away, bettors are looking for early action in the player futures market.
In the quarterback market, Derek Carr is simply dominating the wagers. The Las Vegas Raiders quarterback received the most bets and accounts for the most handle in both the touchdowns and yards leader markets at BetMGM.
With 22.1% of the tickets and 30.3% of the handle in the yards leader market, he represents a sizable liability. Carr finished fifth in yards and 12th in touchdowns last season, but the addition of Davante Adams will certainly help his efforts. Carr is +1000 to lead the league in yards and +1800 to lead the league in touchdowns.
