A wide variety of quarterbacks have held the dubious distinction of leading the league in interceptions thrown in recent years as we look at the odds of being the NFL's interceptions leader in 2023 from our best NFL betting sites.

The wheels are falling off the Washington Commanders, losers of five in a row and 10 of their last 12 games, and Sam Howell is a major culprit behind their tumble down the standings.

Despite the rookie showing some flashes of brilliance this season, Howell is a +125 favorite to throw the most picks in 2023 with only three weeks remaining.

Let's look at the main contenders plus a live long shot in the NFL interceptions leader market.

NFL interceptions leader odds 2023: Favorite

Sam Howell (+125 via bet365)

There's plenty of good to take away from Howell's rookie season. The Commanders trust him under center, as he's accumulated the most passing attempts in the league, but an NFL-leading 15 picks have come attached to it.

Can Howell clean up his act in time and avoid going down in the history books?

NFL interceptions leader odds 2023: Contender

Josh Allen (+150 via bet365)

The Bills have been among the league's most disappointing teams, and it cost offensive coordinator Ken Dorsey his job on Nov. 15. Oddsmakers are not encouraged by what they've seen from Allen since interim play-caller Joe Brady took over, as they continue to knock down Allen's odds to toss the most interceptions since the move.

Allen is responsible for the most turnovers by any player in the NFL since entering the league in 2018, so it's not all that shocking to see him near the front in this race.

NFL interceptions leader odds 2023: Long shot

Patrick Mahomes (+800 via bet365)

Patrick Mahomes has thrown at least one pick in 10 of 14 games in 2023 and is just two interceptions off the league lead. He's second in pass attempts to this point, so that volume will also help long-shot bettors.
