Oddsmakers at legal NFL betting sites shortened the New York Jets odds from +1400 to +1200 last week, but no change occurred since Dalvin’s announced contract agreement with the Jets.

Super Bowl 58 Betting Odds

Kansas City Chiefs +675
Cincinnati Bengals +800
San Francisco 49ers +850
Buffalo Bills +900
Philadelphia Eagles +900
New York Jets +1200

Still, the New York Jets have value when it comes to legal sports betting on their AFC East odds. The Buffalo Bills are favorites to win the division again, but Dalvin’s arrival means well for New York’s +250 odds to win the AFC East.

AFC East Betting Odds

Buffalo Bills +135
New York Jets +250
Miami Dolphins +280
New England Patriots +750

Dalvin Cook and the New York Jets face James Cook and the Buffalo Bills in Week 1, which will greatly impact AFC East divisional odds. Buffalo is favored by 2.0 points at legal online sportsbooks to win the “Cook Off’ on Monday Night Football.

Buffalo Bills Vs New York Jets Betting Lines

Team:	Spread:	Moneyline:	Total:
Buffalo Bills	-2.0 (-110)	-130	O47.0 (-110)
New York Jets	+2.0 (-110)	+110	U47.0 (-110)

With Breece Hall recovering from a torn ACL, Dalvin Cook’s arrival in New York gives value to their +110 moneyline odds to start the 2023-2024 NFL season 1-0.
