With Washington dealing with several offensive injuries, several player props stand out for potential value.
Christian McCaffrey and Kaelon Black provide value for San Francisco
Kaelon Black presents an appealing low-number rushing prop. His rushing yard line sits at 14.5, and the 49ers have shown a willingness to rotate backs and lean into a run-first approach at times. Black could see 10-15 carries, especially if San Francisco builds a lead, making the over a viable target even with a relatively modest workload.
Christian McCaffrey OVER 3.5 receptions
McCaffrey consistently targets the short and intermediate areas, making this a strong receiving prop. He remains a reliable option for quarterback Brock Purdy when defenses pressure or take away deeper options. The 49ers’ receiving corps is healthy but the backfield involvement remains high for McCaffrey, particularly in critical drives.
Injury notes at wide receiver add to McCaffrey’s involvement. Deebo Samuel is sidelined with a hamstring issue, and Mike Evans is dealing with rib and Achilles concerns. These absences can increase McCaffrey’s opportunities as a receiver.
Terry McLaurin and Rachaad White could benefit from Washington’s situation
Terry McLaurin OVER 39.5 receiving yards
McLaurin is Washington’s top downfield threat, and the matchup could force the Commanders to lean on the passing game. Washington is 1-3-1 on the season, while San Francisco remains undefeated, which could necessitate extended throwing if Washington falls behind. McLaurin has accumulated 203 receiving yards on 14 receptions this season, and he practiced after dealing with a hamstring issue. A 39.5-yard receiving line is a relatively modest threshold that could be surpassed with a handful of receptions.
Rachaad White OVER 2.5 receptions
White could become Washington’s lead back, especially with Jacory Croskey-Merritt out with a groin injury. Croskey-Merritt led Washington with 239 rushing yards, so his absence might shift more involvement to White in the passing game. White had an 8% target share entering the matchup, and San Francisco has allowed a high number of receptions to running backs this season. If Washington falls behind, White could see several check-down targets, making the over on 2.5 receptions an attractive option.
