Deebo Samuel Props, Projections and NFL Picks for Week 2
It's essential to understand the magnitude of McCaffrey's absence.
As one of the league's premier running backs, CMC's unavailability creates a significant void that the 49ers must fill with backup tailback Jordan Mason, Samuel and others.
Among the various Deebo Samuel props available, one stands out with a significant edge when compared to our advanced NFL betting models: Samuel's rushing attempts.
Last week, Samuel attempted eight carries, showcasing his versatility and ability to contribute to the ground game. In light of this performance, the current betting odds for his rushing attempts are set at 5.5.
