3 prediction markets price this story:

  • Caleb Williams — the market puts it at 59%, closing 2 Feb 2027. Caleb Williams must throw for at least 3,000 yards in the 2026-27 NFL regular season for the outcome to be Yes. The count includes only official passing yards from regular-season games and excludes playoffs or preseason. Readers often mistake the deadline as the end of the calendar year rather than the conclusion of the 2026-27 regular season.
  • Caleb Williams — the market puts it at 6%, closing 2 Feb 2027. The outcome is Yes if Caleb Williams throws for at least 4,000 passing yards in the 2026-27 NFL regular season. The outcome is No if he fails to reach that total. Readers often mistake the deadline or confuse the 2026-27 season with other years.
  • Caleb Williams — the market puts it at 5%, closing 1 Feb 2027. The outcome is Yes if Caleb Williams ranks as the top-scoring quarterback on ESPN's Fantasy Football PPR Quarterback Rankings for the 2026-2027 regular season. The outcome is No if he does not hold that specific number one spot. Readers often mistake current injury reports or short-term performance for the final seasonal ranking.

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.
