The Super Bowl Most Valuable Player (MVP) award is presented annually to the most valuable player of the Super Bowl, the National Football League's (NFL) championship game. The winner is chosen by a panel of 16 football writers and broadcasters, and, since Super Bowl XXXV in 2001, fans voting electronically. The media panel's ballots count for 80 percent of the vote tally, while the viewers' ballots make up the other 20 percent.<ref name="fan">Template:Cite web</ref><ref>Template:Cite news</ref> The game's viewing audience can vote on the Internet or by using cellular phones.<ref name="fan"/> Media voters are asked to vote with about five minutes remaining in the game, but are allowed to change their mind when the game ends. They can nominate one player from each team, with instructions to count their vote for the player on the winning team.<ref>Template:Cite web</ref> Voters cannot select an entire unit.<ref>Template:Cite web</ref>

The Super Bowl MVP has been awarded annually since the game's inception in 1967. Through 1989, the award was presented by SPORT magazine.<ref name="presenters">2009 ESPN Sports Almanac, p. 246.</ref> Bart Starr was the MVP of the first two Super Bowls. Since 1990, the award has been presented by the NFL.<ref name="presenters"/> At Super Bowl XXV, the league first awarded the Pete Rozelle Trophy, named after former NFL commissioner Pete Rozelle, to the Super Bowl MVP.<ref>Template:Cite news</ref> Ottis Anderson was the first to win the trophy.<ref name="XXV">Template:Cite news</ref> The most recent Super Bowl MVP, from Super Bowl LIX, is Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts.

Tom Brady is the only player to have won five Super Bowl MVP awards (four with the New England Patriots and one with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers); Joe Montana and Patrick Mahomes won three times and three other players—Bart Starr, Terry Bradshaw and Eli Manning—have won the award twice.<ref>Template:Cite web</ref> Starr, Bradshaw, and Mahomes are the only ones to have won it in back-to-back years. The MVP has come from the winning team every year except 1971, when Dallas Cowboys linebacker Chuck Howley won the award despite the Cowboys' loss in Super Bowl V to the Baltimore Colts.<ref name="V">Template:Cite news</ref> Harvey Martin and Randy White were named co-MVPs of Super Bowl XII, the only time co-MVPs have been chosen.<ref name="XII"/><ref name="XIIb">Template:Cite web</ref> Including the Super Bowl XII co-MVPs, seven Cowboys players have won Super Bowl MVP awards, the most of any NFL team. Quarterbacks have earned the honor 34 times in 59 games (and 60 awards).<ref>Template:Cite web</ref>

From Super Bowl I to Super Bowl XLIX the Super Bowl MVP won a new car as a part of their MVP award. However, since Hyundai became the official vehicle partner of the NFL from the 2015 NFL season onward no new car has been awarded to the Super Bowl MVP since Super Bowl 50.<ref>Template:Cite web</ref>
