NFL MVP Chase

As predicted last week, numerous players joined the lead in the MVP Chase. As a reminder, players can earn one MVP point each week:

• A quarterback must have a 100.0+ passer rating in a win or tie
• A back or receiver must have 100+ yards from scrimmage in a win or tie.
• Multiple players on the same team can earn an MVP point in the same game if they meet the standard.

Entering Week 6,

• 45 players have one MVP point.
• 18 have two MVP points.
• 7 have three MVP points.

Those seven are:

Josh Allen, QB, Bills

Stefon Diggs, WR, Bills

Jimmy Garoppolo, QB, 49ers

Derek Henry, RB, Titans
