NFL Holdout Odds, Fantasy Football Odds, Cheatsheet

Books have set odds on the possibility of players such as Ezekiel Elliott and Melvin Gordon holding out beyond the preseason. 

Additionally, the site SportsBetting has rolled out odds to capture the NFL’s passing, receiving and rushing titles.

Matt Ryan and Patrick Mahomes are favored to lead the league in passing while Julio Jones sits atop a lengthly list of players for the receiving title. Elliott is just ahead of Saquon Barkley for the odds to be the rushing leader for the second straight season.

According to the numbers, oddsmakers anticipate that Elliott and Jadeveon Clowney will end their holdouts and play in Week 1 of the regular season, but they don’t expect Melvin Gordon or Trent Williams to be suited up for their respective teams. 

Will Ezekiel Elliott play for Cowboys in Week 1 of regular season?
Yes -200
No +150

Will Melvin Gordon play for Chargers in Week 1 of regular season?

No -300

Will Jadeveon Clowney play for Texans in Week 1 of regular season?
Yes -250
No +170

Will Trent Williams play for Redskins in Week 1 of regular season?
