While Christian McCaffrey and Deebo Samuel understandably get a ton of the spotlight from the San Francisco 49ers offense, Brandon Aiyuk has been a great weapon for them all season as well. Aiyuk has given Brock Purdy an excellent deep throwing option throughout the year and Aiyuk will aim to showcase his talents in the Super Bowl against the Kansas City Chiefs. Here, we look at Brandon Aiyuk player props and which ones we like to cash in Super Bowl LVIII.

Brandon Aiyuk Prop Prediction #1: Under 4.5 Receptions (-125)
The first of our two Brandon Aiyuk player props that we recommend betting is the under on his total number of receptions. Aiyuk is a great wide receiver, but he has not had a game with over three receptions in three outings in 2024. Against one of the best defenses in the NFL in that of the Kansas City Chiefs, expect him to stay under his receptions total again in this contest.
Brandon Aiyuk Prop Prediction #2: Under 62.5 Receiving Yards (-115)
We also like the under for Aiyuk’s receiving yards total, which is set at 62.5 yards for Super Bowl 58. Aiyuk has gone over this number in one of San Francisco’s two games during this postseason. But against the Lions, he gained 51 of his 68 yards on a catch where the ball hit a Detroit defender direction in the facemask before Aiyuk was able to capture the ricochet. Barring any additional ladybugs landing on him, Aiyuk should stay under his receiving yards total in this game.
One of the main reasons we are so high on Aiyuk unders in this game is that this is not a great stylistic matchup for a receiver like Aiyuk. Throughout this season, Aiyuk has been most effective on deep routes, while players like George Kittle, Deebo Samuel, and Christian McCaffrey run underneath. But against a team like the Chiefs who are able to pressure quarterbacks so effectively, there might not be that much time for Aiyuk’s routes to develop downfield.
Of course, it is entirely possible that this line of thinking does not pan out and Aiyuk hits a couple of big catches to torpedo these unders. But our logic is sound in our admittedly biased opinion, as Aiyuk should be in for a tougher day than usual at the office in the biggest game of his career so far.
