Our favorite NFL best bets and player props for Thursday Night Football, where the New York Giants visit the San Francisco 49ers.
Prop bet #1: Producing in reliefChristian McCaffreyWe definitely got to get Elijah [Mitchell] in there more and do better with our rotation than we did yesterday. That wasn’t the plan going in, it just ended up that way. I’ve got to make sure that doesn’t happen"Elijah Mitchell has logged just five rushing attempts this season , and didn't even take the field in the last game. But given Shanahan's comments, we should see a workload for Mitchell more in line with last year's.
In the four regular season games that Mitchell and McCaffrey played together last year, Mitchell averaged 9.8 carries and 59.5 rushing yards per game. Even in the two playoff games they played together last year , Mitchell still handled 23 combined rushing attempts and had snap percentages of 22% and 33% .
Throw in the fact that this game has blowout potential , and you have a recipe for Mitchell to find the field.
