Heisman Trophy odds for 2024 college football season
Looking ahead to this college football season, the transfer portal is once again buzzing with big names changing schools in time for the 2024 kickoff, and those movements have had an effect on the latest odds to win the Heisman Trophy, according to the odds makers at FanDuel Sportsbook.
Given that the contenders to win the Heisman typically come from national championship hopeful teams, we can expect more players than ever before to be in consideration for the honor as the College Football Playoff expands to 12 teams.
Here are some of the more prominent names to watch for as the 2024 college football preseason moves forward, according to FanDuel.
Heisman Trophy odds for 2024 college football season
Quinn Ewers (+750). Texas gets its star quarterback on the field in 2024 after his best showing as a collegian, throwing 22 touchdowns and almost 3,500 yards, and he'll have elite targets to throw to this coming season.
Carson Beck (+750). Georgia's quarterback is returning for the 2024 season after he hit more than 72 percent of his throws and was second in school history in passing yardage.
Dillon Gabriel (+1000). The dual-threat quarterback transferred to Oregon, his third school, and helms an offense that looks absolutely loaded in skill players, including 5-star transfer receiver Evan Stewart.
Will Howard (+1000). Over two seasons at Kansas State, the quarterback threw 39 touchdowns and ran for 12, and now he joins Ryan Day's offense at Ohio State with important pieces coming back and transfer back Quinshon Judkins in the backfield.
Jalen Milroe (+1200). Nick Saban's bombshell retirement has already impacted Alabama's roster heading into 2024, but so far the Tide quarterback has stayed put, and he could hit another level he works from Kalen DeBoer's offensive playbook.
Nico Iamaleava (+1500). Tennessee's young quarterback put on a show in his first start, carving up Iowa's elite defense in a bowl win, and returns in 2024 in tandem with wideout Bru McCoy and a skill set that includes a credible running threat.
Jaxson Dart (+1800). Ole Miss gets its quarterback, one of the SEC's best returning players at any position, under center again in 2024 after he had a career-best 65.1 percent completion mark.
Garrett Nussmeier (+1800). The LSU quarterback finally gets his chance to show off after Jayden Daniels' departure, and while he gets four returning lineman and experience at tailback, he also needs a new OC and some help at wide receiver.
