Bailey Zappe’s rookie of the year odds skyrocketed during Bears game

Bailey Zappe’s odds to win NFL Offensive Rookie of the Year award fluctuated wildly during the Patriots’ loss to Chicago Monday Night.

According to ESPN, a number of big bets shifted Zappe’s odds to win the award from 50-1 to 5-1 in a stretch that lasted approximately 30 minutes.

Zappe took over for Mac Jones after three series and provided an immediate jolt to New England’s offense with a pair of quick touchdown drives before his production tapered off in the second half.

The biggest bet Caesars Sportsbook reported during the game was $3,000 on Zappe at 16-1.
