NFL Odds API Coverage: Every NFL Betting Market Available in the SportsGameOdds API

If you're building a sportsbook, an odds-comparison site, a props research tool, or a fantasy app, the depth of your NFL market coverage is the product. Bettors expect every line — from the game moneyline down to a quarterback's first-quarter passing yards — and they expect to see it priced across the sportsbooks they actually use.

The SportsGameOdds API delivers exactly that. This guide walks through the complete set of NFL betting markets we support, how they're structured, and which bookmakers you can pull odds from for each one.

How SportsGameOdds Market IDs Work

Every market in the API is identified by a structured oddID that encodes everything you need to know about the bet. Once you understand the pattern, the entire catalog becomes self-documenting.

The format follows this structure:

{statEntity}-{participant}-{period}-{betType}-{side}

For example:

passing_yards-PLAYER_ID-game-ou-over

Breaking that down:

• passing_yards — the stat being bet on
• PLAYER_ID — the participant (a specific player, or away/home/all for team and game markets)
• game — the period (game, 1h, 2h, 1q, 2q, 3q, 4q, reg)
• ou — the bet type (ou = over/under, ml = moneyline, sp = spread, yn = yes/no, eo = even/odd, ml3way = 3-way moneyline)
• over — the side of the bet

This consistent structure means you can programmatically construct, parse, and filter markets without hardcoding thousands of individual strings.

Player Props

Frequently Asked Questions

Does the SportsGameOdds Odds API support alternate player props?

Yes. Alternate lines are supported across the major player prop categories including passing yards, rushing yards, receiving yards, receptions, and more — wherever the underlying sportsbooks offer them. Because every market is identified by a structured oddID and each line carries its own odds across supporting books, you can surface main lines and alternates together in your product.

Which sportsbooks are included?

NFL coverage spans more than 70 sportsbooks and prediction markets. Core game lines (moneyline, spread, total) carry the widest coverage, including DraftKings, FanDuel, BetMGM, Caesars, bet365, ESPN BET, Fanatics, BetRivers, Pinnacle, Bovada, and many more — plus prediction markets like Kalshi and Polymarket. Specialist props markets include books like PrizePicks and Underdog. Bookmaker availability is listed per market, so you always know exactly which books price a given line.

Are live NFL odds available?

Yes. In addition to pre-game markets, the API provides live in-game odds, including quarter and half markets (1Q–4Q, 1H, 2H) for moneyline, spread, totals, and 3-way lines. For real-time updates during games, see the Odds API documentation.

Can I compare bookmaker odds?

Absolutely, odds comparison is a core use case. Every market returns prices from all supporting bookmakers under a single consistent oddID, so lining up the best available number across DraftKings, FanDuel, BetMGM, Caesars, and dozens of others is straightforward. This makes the API well suited to odds-comparison sites, line-shopping tools, and arbitrage detection.

How are markets identified in the API?

Every market uses a structured oddID in the format {statEntity}-{participant}-{period}-{betType}-{side} — for example, passing_yards-PLAYER_ID-game-ou-over. This consistent pattern lets you construct, filter, and parse markets programmatically rather than hardcoding individual strings.
