What position Has won the Most Super Bowl MVPs?
The MVP of a Super Bowl is the most honored player in NFL history. The player who shined the brightest on the world's biggest stage is forever a legend.
It shouldn't be surprising that quarterbacks dominate Super Bowl MVP awards. After all, the signal-caller is the most important position and is usually called upon to lead the team to championships. Of the 56 Super Bowls, 31 quarterbacks have won the award.
But 31 out of 56 MVPs being quarterbacks means 26 have been in other positions. Most recently, Cooper Kupp of the Los Angeles Rams won the award as a receiver after hauling 92 receiving yards and two touchdowns. Kupp became the eighth Wide receiver to be named MVP after other players like Jerry Rice and Julian Edelman. A few more discreet MVPs are receivers Deion Branch (2005) and Santonio Holmes (2009).
Running backs have won the award 7 times but haven't done so since 1998 (Terrell Davis). Defensively, 10 players have been honored as the league's MVP. In contrast, only 1 special team player has won the Super Bowl MVP, and it goes to Desmond Howard after returning a kickoff 99 yards for a score in Super Bowl XXXI, the longest return in Super Bowl history.
Who has been named Super Bowl MVP the most times?
We've looked down the history of the Super Bowl MVP honor, and the most-awarded player isn't a surprise.
Yes, Tom Brady is the right answer. The GOAT has won more Super Bowl MVP awards than any other player. He has won 7 rings and 5 Super Bowl MVPs in his career.
Five players have won this award more than once. All of them are quarterbacks.
Here's a list of them:
- Tom Brady with 5. Won 4 with the New England Patriots and 1 with Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
- Joe Montana with 3, all with the San Francisco 49ers
- Bart Starr 2 with Green Bay Packers
- Terry Bradshaw 2 with Pittsburg Steelers
- Eli Manning 2 with New York Giants
Curious note: Eli Manning's Super Bowl MVP awards came against Brady, the undisputed king of Super Bowl MVPs.
As of February 2021, all of the Super Bowl MVP winners from the last ten years are still playing, so they still have a chance of winning a second and joining this even more exclusive club. Patrick Mahomes won the Super Bowl MVP award for the first time in his second season as a starting quarterback. He could keep adding to his total for a decade or more.
Who won Super Bowl 56 MVP?
The MVP award is usually given to the quarterback, but this was an opportunity to buck the trend. Rams Wide Receiver Cooper Kupp was named the Super Bowl 56 MVP after stepping up big in the final game-winning drive. Kupp earned the Big Game honors and cashed in at (+600) odds to win Most Valuable Player.
Kupp hauled 8 catches, 92 yards, and 2 TDs (including game-winning score with 1:25 left) in a 23-20 victory over the Bengals on Sunday, February 13, 2022, at SoFi Stadium, Inglewood, California.
for the Super Bowl LVI MVP Odds were released, with quarterbacks Matthew Stafford (+100) leading the pack, followed by Joe Burrow (+225) as the favorites. Cooper Kupp was the 3rd on the list to win the MVP at (+600)
According to Vegas, Kupp was one of the most popular picks. He attracted more than 11% of the audience and over 10% of the total take in the Super Bowl MVP market. A $100 bet on him paid $600 bucks.
Who won Super Bowl 55 MVP?
The only player with 4 Super Bowl MVPs added another to his count in his first year with Tampa Bay. Tom Brady took the highest honor for an NFL-record fifth time as he won Super Bowl MVP in Super Bowl 55.
To no surprise, both quarterbacks, Patrick Mahomes (+100) and Tom Brady, were the favorites to win the Super Bowl 55 MVP, followed by two Kansas City Chiefs playmakers, wide receiver Tyreke Hill (+900) and tight end Travis Kelce (+1000).
