3 prediction markets price this story:

  • Drake Maye — the market puts it at 24%, closing 2 Feb 2027. The outcome is Yes if Drake Maye throws at least 25 passing touchdowns in the 2026-27 NFL regular season. The outcome is No if he throws fewer than 25 touchdowns during that same period. Readers often mistake the deadline, thinking it ends after the linked game rather than at the conclusion of the entire 2026-27 regular season.
  • Drake Maye — the market puts it at 3%, closing 1 Feb 2027. The market resolves to Yes if Drake Maye holds the top spot on ESPN's Fantasy Football PPR Quarterback Rankings for the 2026-2027 regular season. It resolves to No if he does not reach that specific ranking position during that defined period.
  • Drake Maye records 2+ passing touchdowns and 2+ rushing touchdowns in a single game — the market puts it at 2%, with $25 traded in the last 24 hours, closing 25 Jan 2027. The market resolves to Yes if Drake Maye throws two or more passing touchdowns and rushes for two or more touchdowns in one 2026-27 NFL regular-season game. It resolves to No if he fails to meet both thresholds in any single game during that season. Readers often mistake the deadline, thinking the count resets each quarter instead of applying to the full game.

Odds are the market's probability that the outcome happens, updated every few minutes. They are information about what traders expect, not a forecast we make and not investment advice.
