Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson has been a revelation in the NFL this season. Just last week it was reported that the 22-year-old led the Pro Bowl votings with over 700,000 votes. While he is a frontrunner for the NFL MVP award, reports suggest he is not only leading but an overwhelming favourite to win the prize.

Lamar Jackson stats: NFL MVP frontrunner?
Lamar Jackson, who was the 32nd pick in the 2018 NFL Draft has surely come leaps and bounds following his rookie season. Jackson has racked up some insane numbers this season. He has put up 2,889 passing yards and has recorded 33 touchdowns in the regular season. He led his side to the NFL playoffs with a 10-game winning streak. With the final two weeks left in the regular season, experts believe Lamar Jackson is the clear favourite to win the NFL MVP award.
According to NFL insider Tom Pelissero, several executives and NFL analysts are set to vote for Lamar Jackson as the MVP. He will be challenged by Russell Wilson, Deshaun Watson and Patrick Mahomes for the award, but Pelissero believes no one will be getting close to Lamar Jackson for the top prize.
