The Kansas City Chiefs' bid for the NFL's first back-to-back Super Bowl victories in 16 years ended with a thud Sunday night in Tampa, Fla. After the Chiefs took a 3-0 lead midway through the first quarter of Super Bowl LV, it was all QB Tom Brady and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers defense as the 'hosts' dominated the defending champs en route to a 31-9 victory - the second-most lopsided Super Bowl.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers RB Leonard Fournette took some time to adjust to his new surroundings this season after being released by the Jacksonville Jaguars prior to Week 1. The former No. 4 draft pick now known as ‘Playoff Lenny’ has emerged as a regular contributor en route to Super Bowl 55. Below, we look at Leonard Fournette’s Super Bowl prop bets with NFL picks and predictions.

Rushing yards: OVER 50.5 (+100)

Fournette has taken over the lead duties from teammate Ronald Jones II. He has started six straight games and has totaled 211 rushing yards and 2 touchdowns in the Buccaneers’ three playoff contests.

Expect the timeshare to be more evenly split than it was in the NFC Championship when Jones went for just 16 yards on 10 carries, but both backs could top 50 yards as the Bucs lean on the run game to control the clock in Super Bowl 55.

First rush attempt: OVER 3.5 yards (+115)

Fournette averaged just 3.78 yards per carry in the regular season but that number has skyrocketed to 4.40 in the playoffs with 12 or more attempts in all three games.

The threat of play action with QB Tom Brady should keep the defensive attention off the running game early and should allow Fournette to find some early holes.

Receptions made: OVER 3.5 (-112)

The passing game is where Fournette really found a groove late in the season and through the NFC playoffs. He has 14 receptions through three road postseason games on a total of 17 targets.

Look for Brady to target both running backs more often in the passing game in an effort to control the clock instead of looking deep to WRs Mike Evans, Chris Godwin or Antonio Brown.

Bets

Buccaneers’ first reception: +650

This follows suit of the above pick and brings with it a nice plus-money payout with a $10 bet potentially returning a profit of $65 early in the game.

The Chiefs allowed 5.4 receptions per game to running backs. We’re already expecting Fournette to be on the field on the Bucs’ first drive, and he’s a good bet while sharing just the fourth-best odds among Tampa Bay pass-catchers.
