If you’re betting on who will be named the NFL MVP, smart money is annually placed on quarterbacks. Not the case for the Offensive Player of the Year.
The award has been handed out by the Associated Press since 1972, and since then, the positional breakdown for the winners is as follows:

Quarterback: 20
Running back: 26
Wide receiver: 5

However, while receiver looks like a bad play from a historical angle, consider that Cooper Kupp and Justin Jefferson have won the past two Offensive Player of the Year awards.

Someone poked the bear, or in this case, the bulldog that is Brian Harman over the weekend at The Open, which turned out to be a problem for the rest of the field at Hoylake. After capping off his six-shot victory, the Georgia native admitted one heckler in particular delivered all the motivation he needed to get the job done across the pond.
With England’s Tommy Fleetwood and Europe’s golden boy Rory McIlroy within (distant) striking distance on Saturday, Harman was far from the fan favorite at Royal Liverpool.

It hasn’t taken long for Aaron Rodgers to make his presence felt as the new QB1 for the Jets. But the buzz from Sunday’s training camp practice is coming in as strong, if not stronger for New York’s top wide receiver, Garrett Wilson.
Wilson, who was named the 2022 NFL Offensive Rookie of the Year, seems to have already built a strong rapport with Rodgers, and the duo sent the internet into a frenzy with one highlight-reel touchdown.

The NFC East might be the best division in football.
Last season, three teams made the postseason, the only division in either conference that could claim such a feat. And the Giants, Cowboys and Eagles all won at least one game, with Philadelphia reaching Super Bowl LVII.
This summer, all have reason to believe. New York returns every key member along with second-year coach Brian Daboll. Dallas added two key veterans in receiver Brandin Cooks and cornerback Stephon Gilmore to an already talented roster.

Chris Paul is preparing for his debut season with the Warriors following a series of offseason trades that resulted in him landing with Golden State.
The 38-year-old is no stranger to new teams, having played for five different franchises throughout his career. As he gears up for another new chapter, Paul discussed his thoughts on becoming teammates with longtime rivals such as Stephen Curry, Klay Thompson, and Draymond Green in a clip released by the team.
