The market for next season's NFL futility has undergone a dramatic reversal, with the Cleveland Browns — who joined an infamous club of winless seasons with their 2017 0-16 campaign — now trading at 78¢ to finish with the worst 2027 regular season record. That's a massive 40-cent surge from 38¢ just 24 hours ago.

Meanwhile, the Arizona Cardinals collapsed from 69¢ to just 1¢, a stunning 68-cent drop that suggests traders believe the franchise has nowhere to go but up after their current struggles. The Cardinals finished with one of the worst records this season at 3-14, but the market is now pricing in significant improvement ahead. Minnesota (down 38 cents to 1¢) and Cincinnati (down 36 cents to 1¢) saw similar faith from traders betting against rock-bottom finishes.

The dramatic swing reflects how quickly sentiment can shift in NFL futures markets. Cleveland's 2017 season remains tied for the worst in modern NFL history alongside Detroit's 2008 campaign, making them a perennial candidate for dysfunction betting. With modest volume of just 26 contracts, a small number of traders appear convinced that Cleveland's organizational issues will persist into 2027.
