Let’s have a look:
Tampa Bay Buccaneers: Super Bowl LVII Odds movement
Unsurprisingly, the Buccaners saw a massive jump in their title odds, sitting at +2200 when Tom Brady announced his retirement before jumping all the way to +700 when he reversed course earlier this week.
New Orleans Saints, Atlanta Falcons Super Bowl LVII Odds movement
The Saints and Falcons provide a good example of how even just reports of potential transactions can affect the market drastically. With Deshaun Watson reportedly narrowing down his next team to either the favored Saints and Falcons, both of these teams see a dramatic jump in their odds. New Orleans’ odds are cut in half, while the Falcons move from an afterthought into dark horse territory. Expect an even further shift depending on who lands the QB.

Kansas City Chiefs, Denver Broncos AFC West Odds movement
The Russell Wilson trade to the Broncos saw some fun movement in the AFC West. You can see the Chiefs dropping from a heavy favorite at minus odds to an even +100, while the Broncos rose to a similar point, before settling around +250, good enough for second-best in the division.
