NFL Props: Colts vs. 49ers

Brandon Aiyuk Under 32.5 Receiving Yards

Tonight’s showdown between the Colts and 49ers is in for quite a showing from Mother Nature with weather-related terms like “atmospheric river” and “bomb cyclone” being used to describe the forecast for the game.

We should see heavy rain all game long, which will quickly turn this into a trench battle. For that reason, I like fading Aiyuk here. He’s been one of the biggest disappointments in fantasy this year and only topped this number once this year when he hit 37 rec yards in Week 3.

Aiyuk is a low-floor player dealing with weather that will lower his floor even further. I’m projecting him closer to 22.5 rec yards. Get this locked in early before the market moves this line — I would bet it down to 27.5.

Pick: Brandon Aiyuk Under 32.5 Receiving Yards (-115) at BetMGM
