When it comes to the Super Bowl, it’s more about the food and gambling than it is football.
One reason for that is the growing popularity with Super Bowl prop bets.

Tons of people like to place money on the coin flip or total passing yards by a particular quarterback, or even the color of Gatorade that will be dumped on the winning coach.
That being said, the bets placed on those props are generally for a small amount of money compared to what people bet on the game itself.
Well, that is not the case for one Fan Duel bettor who has reportedly placed a $267,660 bet on Kansas City Chiefs RB Damien Williams to rush for UNDER 53.5 yards in Super Bowl LIV this coming Sunday.

From Action Network:
On Thursday, Chiefs RB Damien Williams’ rushing over/under prop at FanDuel was listed at 53.5 yards, a mark he’s only exceeded three times this season. One deep-pocketed bettor at FanDuel expects that to continue, so much so that he put $267,600 on Williams to rush for Under 53.5 at FanDuel’s Meadowlands Sportsbook in New Jersey.
The bet would profit $224,600 if the 49ers hold Williams in check.
This is by far the biggest prop bet we’ve heard of for Super Bowl 54. Unsurprisingly, FanDuel reacted by moving the line down to 50.5.
Nation, will this bettor win his prop bet?
