Aaron Jones

  • Some of the best player props for the 49ers and Vikings week 2 matchup revolve around Aaron Jones in his home debut.
  • Jones has -103 odds to have over 12.5 carries, -115 odds to have over 49.5 rush yards, and -112 odds to have over 17.5 receiving yards.

MINNEAPOLISAaron Jones is making his home debut with the Minnesota Vikings on Sunday against the San Francisco 49ers and sportsbooks have many ways to bet on him. The former Packers running back has been very vocal about his excitement to play with the Vikings and showed his best in week one against the New York Giants with 94 rushing yards on 14 carries and a touchdown.

With the 49ers defense being much more of a challenge than New York and the Niners being favored, all of Jones’ numbers are projected to be lower at legal sports betting sites. This means that there are a lot of ways to win big on Aaron Jones’ props against San Francisco, starting with his rush attempts.

Aaron Jones Over 12.5 Rush Attempts (-103)

Jones finished with 14 carries against the Giants but only left the game because of the lead Minnesota had. In a postgame interview, he even talked about Kevin O’Connell giving him an extra snap at the end to try to get him over 100 rushing yards and mentioned that he will clear that this week against the Niners. For the Packers last season, Jones had over 13 carries in eight of his 14 games played.

Aaron Jones Over 49.5 Rush Yards (-115)

As seen above, Aaron Jones is determined to rush for over 100 yards on Sunday and NFL betting sites have his prop set at 49.5. If the Vikings can stay competitive in this game or play with the lead at any point, Jones should be able to crush the over on this prop. He finished with 94 yards on 14 carries last week and could play an even bigger role in the Vikings second game of the season.

Aaron Jones Over 17.5 Receiving Yards (-112)

In week one against the Giants, Aaron Jones was targeted twice in the air and had two receptions for 15 yards. Sam Darnold spread the ball around in this win with 19 total completions to eight different players. However, there is a strong chance that Jordan Addison will not play against the Niners, opening up more opportunities for Jones in the passing game.

Against the 49ers last week, Breece Hall saw five receptions for 39 yards against the 49ers defense which makes it difficult to take deep shots.
