Saquon Barkley has had a phenomenal season, rushing for over 2,000 yards and carrying the Philadelphia Eagles to the Super Bowl for a rematch with the Kansas City Chiefs.

The former Giant continues to run through opposing defenses, so it’s no surprise to see his props well over 100 yards.

Will the Chiefs get torched on the ground by the best running back in the NFL? Let’s take a closer look at Saquon Barkley prop bets for Super Bowl 59.

All NFL odds used in these props are courtesy of DraftKings Sportsbook, current as of Friday, Jan. 31, at 1 p.m. ET.

Sportsbook Play of the Day

Saquon Barkley Longest Rush Prop

Saquon Barkley: Under 25.5 Longest Rush (-120)

Saquon Barkley is the most explosive runner in football, but 25.5 is a high bar for longest rush. The former Giant has gone Under this number in five of his last eight games.

The Chiefs have a stout run defense, ranking 8th in Rush EPA this season.

I’ll take my chances that Kansas City can limit Barkley to a 25-yard or fewer explosive play here.

Target Barkley to go Under 25.5 longest rush in one of your best NFL bets today.

Saquon Barkley Touchdown Prop

Saquon Barkley: First Touchdown (+450)

Saquon Barkley put up 15 total touchdowns this season plus five in the playoffs. This is the best running back in football, one who has been virtually unstoppable this season.

I don’t want to lay (-190) odds on Barkley anytime touchdown, so I’ll target first touchdown at (+450).

We’ve seen the Chiefs get off to a slow start in each of their last two Super Bowls, including Super Bowl 57 vs the Eagles, when Philly was able to score the first touchdown.

It wouldn’t surprise me to see the Eagles score first here as well. If that happens, there’s a good chance that Barkley is the one to find the end zone.
