49ers vs Eagles Player Props

George Kittle
Anytime Touchdown +225 (bet365)

Kittle, who has the best value on the 49ers to score, was the main receiving option in their Divisional Game against the Cowboys. He had five catches for 95 yards in the winning effort.

He’s shown a good connection with Brock Purdy, registering seven touchdowns in eight games with the rookie signal-caller.

While the Eagles are strong against the pass and rank first in defensive pass DVOA, they are a bit weaker over the middle, so Kittle could have some success.

Brandon Aiyuk and Jauan Jennings have the ability to get free, but the Eagles were first in the explosive plays allowed to receivers. The value just isn’t there for those two.

DeVonta Smith
Anytime Touchdown +195 (FanDuel)

With A.J. Brown dealing with a hip injury, I expect Jalen Hurts to look for Smith early and often.

Getting looks has not been an issue for Smith in a while, as he’s tallied at least eight targets in 10 consecutive games. Over that stretch, he’s scored six touchdowns.

The 49ers defense is undoubtedly a tough unit, but they can be thrown on. They gave up 16 touchdowns to wide receivers this season and were in the bottom five in passing yards allowed to the position.

As discussed by colleague Nick Giffen on Thursday’s Green Dot Daily, the 49ers have given up a pass of at least 25 yards in 11 straight games. In the Divisional Round, CeeDee Lamb racked up 117 yards on 10 catches, a big chunk of that yardage coming on a 46-yard chunk play.
