The NFL MVP is announced during the NFL Honors show on the Thursday night before the Super Bowl.

When do we find out the NFL MVP?

  • In recent years, the NFL MVP winner has been revealed at the annual NFL Honors awards show.
  • NFL Honors is scheduled for the Thursday before the Super Bowl, so for the current season you can expect to find out the MVP that night during the live broadcast.
  • Voting is done after the regular season ends, but the result is kept secret until that awards show, which is why the announcement always feels like a big primetime reveal.

Extra context

  • The award recognizes the player judged to have been the most valuable to their team over the full regular season, so playoff games do not factor into the voting.
  • The broadcast typically includes other major awards (Coach of the Year, Offensive and Defensive Players of the Year, etc.), which all get rolled into one big night of NFL storylines before the Super Bowl hype peaks.
