US legal sports betting handle reached a record $165 billion in 2025, driven by dominant markets like New York and Illinois, but early 2026 shows softening momentum with January's $14.8 billion marking the first post-pandemic year-over-year decline and February at $8.3 billion amid post-Super Bowl lulls. Trader consensus reflects caution from prediction markets siphoning wagers—prompting AGA warnings and bipartisan Senate bills to restrict sports-related contracts—while March Madness is projected to generate $3.3 billion alone, boosting Q1 totals. Upcoming NFL preseason, regular season kickoff, NBA and MLB playoffs, and potential state expansions like Texas could accelerate growth toward another record, though regulatory scrutiny on underage betting and AI targeting adds uncertainty.
