[GameSpot] - Gambling Odds For Madden NFL 22 Cover Star Set Aaron Rodgers As The Favorite

[343iBot]

Sports betting website Bookies.com has released odds on who will be the cover athlete for EA Sports' Madden NFL 22, and the current favorite would be the first-ever Jeopardy host to land on the annual franchise's cover.

Aaron Rodgers of the Green Bay Packers discount double-checks his way to the top of the pack with 11/2 odds. Tennessee Titans running back Derrick Henry is a close second at 6/1, while Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce and Los Angeles Rams defensive lineman Aaron Donald are tied for third at 15/2.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback Tom Brady appears on the list twice, both by himself at 17/2 odds and in a joint cover with Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes at 12/1. If Brady or Mahomes were to appear, they would be the first player to ever grace Madden's cover twice. Mahomes donned the cover of Madden NFL 20, while Brady appeared a few years earlier for Madden NFL 17. The Madden series began featuring cover athletes with Madden 2001's Eddie George; prior to that, John Madden himself was featured.

The full list of odds as found in the official press release is below.
