Since Polymarket's U.S. return in mid-2025, its NFL coverage has expanded to cover the full season — weekly game contracts, season win totals, division winners, conference winners, the Super Bowl, MVP, and Coach of the Year. The deepest liquidity is concentrated where you'd expect: the Super Bowl, MVP, and the most-watched Sunday afternoon matchups.

Where Polymarket vs Kalshi
Both list NFL game-by-game markets in 2026. Polymarket's MVP and Super Bowl props have generally run deeper through the playoff weeks; Kalshi has had a broader prop and scoring-play slate during regular-season Sundays. If you trade NFL seriously, holding accounts on both lets you take whichever side is offering the better fill.
Settlement
NFL contracts settle on the league's official final score, posted by the NFL after the game ends. Tie outcomes and any overtime are handled by the individual market's rules — read them before you size up, because there are edge cases (forfeits, weather cancellations) that resolve differently across markets.
The main NFL contract families
- •Game winner — a YES/NO on each side of a single matchup, the most liquid weekly product.
- •Season win totals — over/under style contracts on a team's regular-season wins.
- •Division and conference winners — longer-dated markets that reprice weekly.
- •Super Bowl winner — the season-long headline market.
- •Award markets — MVP, Offensive Rookie of the Year and similar, settled on the official announcement.
How this differs from a sportsbook
You are trading against other users rather than an operator-set line. You can exit a position mid-week instead of waiting for the result, but liquidity is not guaranteed: a niche market with no traders may have no executable price.
Practical workflow for Florida traders
- 1.Fund with ACH or USDC before Sunday — deposits mid-game are the most common reason people miss a price.
- 2.Compare the same matchup on Kalshi and Polymarket; a few cents of difference on the same event is common.
- 3.Set your exit plan before kickoff, especially for in-game repricing.
- 4.Track fills and fees so you can tell whether an edge survives costs.
