San Francisco 49ers vs Washington Commanders: John Bates Yes Anytime Touchdown Scorer (+1700)
Odds correct at time of publishing
Betting on John Bates to score a touchdown at +1700 is exciting because it gives a chance for a big payout. The San Francisco 49ers struggled against tight ends last season, allowing almost as many touchdowns as the worst team in the league. Bates could find some open looks against this defense, especially since they've been weak in that area.
On the flip side, the Washington Commanders' quarterback has faced fewer extra rushers compared to the league average, which might give him a bit more time to find Bates. However, the 49ers' defense is still tough overall. While Bates scoring isn't a sure thing, the odds make it worth a shot if he gets a chance in the red zone.
