The NFL MVP is announced during the NFL Honors awards show, which is held on the Thursday night before the Super Bowl each year.

Key timing

  • The MVP is a regular-season award, but the winner is revealed later, during Super Bowl week at NFL Honors.
  • In recent seasons, that announcement has fallen on the Thursday before the Super Bowl (for example, Feb. 6, 2025, and Feb. 5, 2026).

What this means for you

  • If you want to watch the MVP announcement, look for the NFL Honors broadcast on the Thursday before the Super Bowl on major sports networks and NFL platforms.
  • Exact times and channels can shift by year, but it is consistently packaged as part of the prime-time NFL Honors show during Super Bowl week.
