- Saquon Barkley is a good bet to go over his 112.5-yard rushing prop based on his recent performances and the poor rushing defense that the Chiefs showed against the Bills in the AFC Championship Game.
- Bovada has a +150 prop parlay for Saquon Barkley to score a touchdown and for the Philadelphia Eagles to win, which may be a good bet on the star as well.
NEW ORLEANS – Saquon Barkley props for Super Bowl 59 are among the most popular ways to bet on the matchup between the Philadelphia Eagles and Kansas City Chiefs.

Best Saquon Barkley Props
- Over 112.5 Rushing Yards -115
- Saquon Barkley to Score and the Eagles Win +150
Bet Saquon Barkley to Rush for More Than 112.5 Yards
The 112.5-yard prop line set by legal sports betting sites for Saquon Barkley is among the highest in Super Bowl history. But, given the season and playoffs that he has had, that line may not be high enough.
Barkley has rushed for 119, 205, and 118 yards in the Eagles three playoff games so far. Going back into the regular season, Saquon has run for more than 112.5 yards in five straight games.
Over that five-game stretch, Saquon Barkley has averaged 151.8 rushing yards per game.
The Kansas City Chiefs only gave up an average of 101.8 rushing yards per game in the regular season, so some may wonder if they will be able to limit Saquon on the ground. A few key points suggest they won’t be able to:
- James Cook of the Buffalo Bills rushed for 6.5 yards per carry in the AFC Championship Game. Cook ended with 85 rushing yards, but that had more to do with the Bills calling plays that did not include their running back who was in the midst of having a big game. The Eagles are a run-first team who will not stop feeding their superstar running back like the Bills did.
- That 101.8 rushing yards per game average that the Chiefs give up is against non-Saquon Barkley running backs. Saquon Barkley was deemed a first-team all-pro this season, which indicates he was the best player at his position. Derrick Henry the only other player this year within 549 rushing yards of him. If the Chiefs played Barkley, that rushing yards per game average would likely be higher.
Bet on Saquon Barkley to Score in an Eagles Win
Bovada is offering many premade parlays for players to score a touchdown and their team to win Super Bowl 59.
One of the parlays is for Saquon Barkley to score a touchdown and the Eagles to win with +150 odds.
That parlay may be a better way to bet on a Saquon Barkley touchdown than his -200 or longer odds at other Super Bowl betting sites for him to find the end zone as an outright bet. That’s because the Eagles have nine wins and only one loss in games that Barkley has scored a touchdown.
- Writers note: the only game the Eagles lost this season that Saquon Barkley scored a touchdown in was the game that Kenny Pickett started in place of an injured Jalen Hurts.
Given the high likelihood that the Eagles will beat the Chiefs if the superstar running back scores, this may be one of the best Saquon Barkley Super Bowl props available.
