Early in the 2026 NFL season, with most teams at one or two games played, defensive and special teams touchdowns remain scarce league-wide, leaving the race for the most such scores wide open. Several clubs including the Bengals, Patriots, Steelers, and Buccaneers have already recorded one each via pick-sixes, fumble returns, or returns, but no unit has pulled away. Roster strengths in coverage, return units, and turnover creation plus schedule strength keep implied probabilities tightly bunched, with "Other" reflecting the realistic chance the leader emerges from the broader field rather than any single preseason favorite. Recent Week 1 and 2 results underscore how quickly momentum can shift in these low-volume categories.

In the event of a tie, this market will resolve in favor of the tied team with more total takeaways (interceptions plus fumble recoveries) during the 2026-27 NFL regular season. If a tie still persists, this market will resolve in favor of the team with more combined kickoff and punt return yards during the 2026-27 NFL regular season. If a tie still persists, this market will resolve to “Other”.
If the 2026-27 NFL season concludes early, is shortened, or is truncated for any reason, the outcome shall be determined using available NFL statistics for completed games.
If the 2026-27 NFL regular season is cancelled, postponed after January 26, 2027, 11:59 PM ET, or it is unclear which team led the NFL in special teams and defensive touchdowns (kickoff return, punt return, blocked kick, interception return, and fumble return touchdowns) within that timeframe, this market will resolve to “Other”.
The resolution source for this market will be official information from the NFL; however, a consensus of credible reporting may also be used.
