In case it wasn t crystal clear before, Xavien Howard absolutely is among the leading candidates for NFL Defensive Player of the Year honors.
The latest odds from BetOnline.ag actually have him as the third-favorite to win the award behind only Rams defensive tackle Aaron Donald and Steelers linebacker T.J. Watt.
Howard s odds are listed at 4/1, compared to Donald s 2/3 and Watt s 3/1. Browns defensive end Myles Garrett is the fourth-favorite at 5/1.
Howard, of course, leads the NFL in interceptions with nine, the most for any player in the league since 2012 when Chicago cornerback Tim Jennings also had nine.
When it comes to other individual awards, the odds for Brian Flores and Tua Tagovailoa got longer this week.
