George Holani was an afterthought for the Seahawks, who leaned on Kenneth Walker III and Zach Charbonnet in their running back committee.
However, with Charbonnet suffering a torn ACL in the NFC Divisional Round, Holani was thrust into action as Walker’s primary backup.
Considering these circumstances, there are some intriguing George Holani props for Super Bowl 60.
George Holani Super Bowl Props
All NFL odds used for these George Holani Super Bowl props are current as of Friday, Feb. 6, and courtesy of DraftKings Sportsbook.
George Holani: Over 11.5 Receiving Yards (-116) vs Patriots
Holani’s role is as a pass-catcher to complement Walker. He’s not going to take away many carries, but he could make an impact in obvious passing downs and two-minute drill situations.
That’s why I love targeting his over 11.5 receiving yards prop. Imagine it’s 13-13 with 1:57 to go in the second quarter. The Seahawks are in hurry-up mode to get into field goal range. In this scenario, Holani can get 12+ receiving yards on one drive. This feels firmly in reach.
- Prepare for Patriots vs Seahawks with our Super Bowl 60 predictions.
We saw Holani put up solid production in the NFC Championship Game against the Rams, hauling in 3-of-4 targets for 27 yards.
He easily surpassed this number, opening up a spot for you to target the alternate line for a better payout. Make Holani over 11.5 receiving yards your NFL pick of the day.
George Holani: Longest Reception Over 8.5 Yards (-110) vs Patriots
We’ll double down on Holani here by targeting his over 8.5 longest reception. We saw him eclipse that number against the Rams with a 13-yard catch.
With the Patriots focused on slowing down Jaxon Smith-Njigba, it wouldn’t surprise me to see Seahawks play-caller Klint Kubiak cook up a wheel route for Holani to make a big play downfield.
We’re getting a reasonable number at 8.5 and at a solid price of -110 odds, making this one of my favorite Super Bowl prop bets.
George Holani: Longest Rush Under 5.5 Yards (+100) vs Patriots
Next up, we’re going in the opposite direction by fading Holani on the ground, targeting the under for his longest rush.
As mentioned above, Holani’s role is more in the passing game and less as a rusher.
The backup running back had only three carries against the Rams in the NFC Championship, totaling four yards.

Holani profiles more as a scat back who is better as a pass-catcher. With limited volume, I like the +100 odds on the under for his longest rush.
There’s a legitimate chance that he’ll have to get a six-yard rush on only two carries for us to lose this prop. It also bodes well that the Patriots have an elite run defense with Milton Williams in the lineup.
Considering these circumstances, we’ll fade Holani and take his longest rush to go under 5.5 yards. Pair this wager with our best online sportsbook promotions.
