The hit
A Caesars bettor in New Jersey cashed an 18-leg NFL parlay for $203,234.78 off a $66 stake, according to Covers. The ticket carried odds of +307,830 & an implied probability of 0.03%. Two bets on Ravens receiver Rashod Bateman were voided under Caesars’ injury protection after he left Sunday’s game with a shoulder injury.
Why it matters
The parlay never would’ve won without Caesars’ bet protection, according to Covers. Most of the 16 winning legs were odds-on favourites, priced as short as -240, with only Jerry Jeudy (+108) & Rico Dowdle (+101) paying plus-money. The long odds came from stacking all 18 legs together. Sportsbooks have expanded their injury protection programmes this season. The void on both Bateman legs meant the parlay could still win without those picks counting against it.
