5 minNew York Giants vs. San Francisco 49ers Prop Pick: Will Darren Waller Step Up on Thursday Night Football?
The New York Giants made a trade this off-season to acquire seventh-year tight end Darren Waller from the Las Vegas Raiders. Through the first two games of the season, it’s clear to see why the Giants went out and got him. Waller has been the top target for Daniel Jones, as he leads the team in targets, receptions, and receiving yards.

New York Giants vs. San Francisco 49ers Prediction
Tonight on Thursday Night Football, the Giants are 10-point underdogs as they travel to take on the San Francisco 49ers on the road. They will do so without their top offensive weapon, Saquon Barkley, who suffered an ankle injury last week against the Cardinals. His absence means other players will need to step up for New York, and I expect Darren Waller to be up for the task.
The 49ers aren’t a great matchup for tight ends, but Waller is an exception, as the Giants use him in a variety of ways all over the formation. The game script should set up favorably for the passing attack if the Giants find themselves trailing early, which is perfect for Waller to exceed his receiving yards prop tonight.
