A lucky sports fan is halfway through a massive NFL parlay bet that would secure a life-changing payout and allow them to retire early.
On DraftKings, one customer placed a giant $250 NFL parlay bet that would carry a massive $3.1 million payout. For starters, they correctly placed wagers on touchdowns by Joe Mixon and Travis Kelce in the Kansas City Chiefs-Houston Texans Divisional Round game. The Chiefs also covered the moneyline.
The fan also put a wager on the Washington Commanders to cover the moneyline against the Detroit Lions (hit). They also correctly bet on touchdowns from Jahmyr Gibbs and Terry McLaurin.
HALFWAY TO $3.1 MILLION 😱
Is this parlay going to cash⁉️

So, what does the fan need to win this NFL parlay? Jalen Hurts scored a touchdown in the first quarter against the Los Angeles Rams. So now they just need a Puka Nacua TD and for the Rams to cover the moneyline.
And then to take home $3.1 million? Touchdowns from Josh Allen and Mark Andrews in the Buffalo Bills-Baltimore Ravens game, with Lamar Jackson’s squad covering the moneyline.
Halfway Through A Dream NFL Parlay Victory
The fact this fan is already more than halfway through the parlay is impressive enough. This would be an all-time parlay victory if they hit on it, so we’ll see how it all plays out.
