Cowboys vs. 49ers – NFL Player Props
- Jordan Mason Over/Under 17.5 Rush Attempts
- Jordan Mason Over/Under 79.5 Rushing Yards
- Jake Ferguson Over/Under 39.5 Receiving Yards
Jordan Mason OVER 17.5 Rush Attempts (-114, FanDuel)
Jordan Mason has gone under this market number in 3 consecutive games, but this could be a great opportunity for San Francisco to go back to him in a big way. Entering the weekend, the Cowboys’ run defense ranked 32nd in EPA/play, 30th in success rate, and 29th in DVOA. There isn’t a better matchup in football for opposing running backs right now, making this a playable line for Mason in primetime.
Jordan Mason OVER 79.5 Rushing Yards (-110, FanDuel)
If betting Jordan Mason to have 18+ rush attempts, it only makes sense to bet his rushing yards as well. Mason has been one of the league’s most effective running backs this fall, averaging 5.2 yards per carry. He’s managed at least 77 rushing yards in every game in which he’s been given more than 14 carries, so these two bets are highly correlated with one another. Mason is also more than capable of breaking a big run to get to this number early – he’s had a 22+ yard rush in all but one game in 2024.
Jake Ferguson OVER 39.5 Receiving Yards (-120, DraftKings)
One consequence of Dallas choosing to sit out of free agency this past summer is that Jake Ferguson has emerged as the team’s clear No. 2 option in the passing game. Other than last weekend’s 42-point loss to the Lions, Ferguson has been a reliable contributor for the Cowboys, with 6+ receptions and 49+ receiving yards in every game since returning from his opening week injury. This is a good spot to invest in him, facing a San Francisco defense that has been mediocre defending tight ends this year, ranking 14th in DVOA against the position.
