2023 NFL odds: Myles Garrett favored to win DPOY entering Week 17

Updated Dec. 28, 2023 1:25 p.m. ET

There is a new, old favorite for the title of NFL's best defender — Cleveland Browns defensive end Myles Garrett.

Garrett had been at the top of the oddsboard for multiple weeks. But after a dominant stretch by Cowboys star Micah Parsons, the Dallas defender took the lead in the clubhouse.

Now, Garrett is back in pole position.

Over the past five games, Garrett has five solo tackles for loss and three QB hits, and the Browns are currently on a three-game winning streak.

On the season, he is seventh in sacks (13) and tied for fifth in forced fumbles (4).
