Giants’ Devin Singletary burns NFL sportsbooks with stunning late slide
Devin Singletary had the sports betting world in his heart when he dropped down at the one-yard line Sunday.
Leading by six late in the fourth quarter, the Giants running back burst free for a 43-yard run and had nothing but green grass and the end zone in front of him when he decided not to score the touchdown.
Singletary’s slide down at the one-yard line helped the Giants grab their first win, 21-15, but also cashed bets for those who wagered on Under 39.5 points.
A FanDuel Sportsperson tells The Post that Under 39.5 garnered 81 percent of the public bettors.
At BetMGM, a spokesperson tells The Post that 84 percent of the money was on the Under, by far the most lopsided action of any total of the weekend.
The 80-plus percent of bettors who wagered the under will forever be indebted to Singletary.
Had Singletary plunged into the end zone for his second touchdown of the day, the Giants would have gone ahead by at least 12 points and a minimum of 42 points would have been tallied.
Instead, a 21-15 final is just as good for Big Blue to come away with an impressive win as 6.5-point underdogs and +240 on the moneyline.
Not everyone was a Giants fan this weekend, though.
DraftKings adds that the Browns’ moneyline, which hung between -300 and -340 throughout the weekend, was the third-most outright bet of the week.
Betting on the NFL?
Rookie receiver Malik Nabers continued to impress with 78 receiving yards and two touchdowns.
He is now tied as the favorite to win Offensive Rookie of the Year at ESPN BET (+260) after being fourth at +750 ods prior to Sunday.
