Fastest 40 time? Highest vertical jump? Yes, you can bet on NFL combine props
With gaming now legal in Pennsylvania and many other states, sports fans are learning that there’s more to bet on than just the scores of games.
Take, for example, superlatives at the NFL combine.
The annual meeting for testing and interviewing draft-eligible football players is next week in Indianapolis. It regularly draws hundreds of thousands of viewers on NFL Network. And having a wager on the results might make it even more viewer-friendly.
The betting website SportsBetting.ag has posted odds for most every combine event in addition to props for certain players.
For the second year in a row, the #Pitt football team will have just one representative this month at the #NFL Combine in Indianapolis https://t.co/iMbWSAlzNa
