Sports bettors love Kenneth Gainwell in Super Bowl 57

Kenneth Gainwell has had a strong postseason at running back for the Philadelphia Eagles, and sports bettors are betting big on him to keep it rolling in the Super Bowl.

One sports bettor bet $2,500 on Gainwell to win Super Bowl MVP at 125-1 at BetMGM, which would net that person $312,500. That comes after a bettor hit Gainwell at 250-1 last week at Caesars Sportsbook.

Per @johnewing, one bettor at @BetMGM has wagered $2,500 on Eagles RB Kenneth Gainwell to win #SuperBowlLVII MVP at 125-1 odds.

Bet would win $312,500.

I like him OVER 18.5 rushing yards — MVP is bold

Gainwell has been a trendy player sports bettors have targeted, including our Iain MacMillian, as the Eagles second running back has been receiving action since betting markets opened.

Since Super Bowl MVP odds were put back up at @CaesarsSports last night, Kenneth Gainwell has gotten the most money for the award.

Gainwell started off last night at 250/1 and he’s now down to 100/1.

A Tennessee bettor put $350 on Gainwell at 225/1 for potential win of $78,750.

As the Eagles stormed through the NFC, beating the New York Giants and San Francisco 49ers by a combined score of 69-14, Gainwell has built up a ton of momentum. He rushed for a combined 160 yards and a touchdown in the two playoff victories and has actually received more snaps than regular season starter Miles Sanders, 57 to 50.

One thing is for sure, if Gainwell pops off again in the Super Bowl, bettors will be going home happy.
