No, NFL players are not allowed to bet on themselves or on any NFL games, including their own performances. The NFL has strict policies against any form of gambling by players, coaches, and team personnel to maintain the integrity of the sport. These policies are outlined in the NFL’s Personal Conduct Policy and the NFL’s Gambling Policy.

The NFL’s gambling policy prohibits not only betting on games but also involvement in any manner of sports betting activities, including fantasy football contests that involve real money. Violations of these policies can result in significant penalties, including fines, suspensions, or even banishment from the league.

The NFL takes these rules very seriously, as they are designed to prevent any potential conflicts of interest or the manipulation of game outcomes.
