Ex-Cowboys star Dez Bryant claims to have won $6,700,000 after betting on Patrick Mahomes and Lamar Jackson in NFL Playoffs
Former Dallas Cowboys and Baltimore Ravens receiver Dez Bryant has claimed to have pocketed a cool $6.7 million from bets he made on this round of the NFL playoffs thanks to Patrick Mahomes and Lamar Jackson.
Bryant posted on X that if the Kansas City Chiefs defeated the Buffalo Bills, he and his brother would split $6.7 million between them. The Chiefs defeated the Bills 27-24 thanks to a late missed field goal.
Bryant apparently hit on every bet he placed in the divisional round.
Patrick Mahomes and Lamar Jackson matchup a clash for the ages
The Chiefs and the Ravens will face each other in the AFC championship game. Patrick Mahomes is 3-1 against Lamar Jackson in the regular season and has made it to the AFC championship game every year he has been the starter (six years).
As for Jackson, his playoff record isn't the best. However, with a home game against Mahomes, he has the chance to make his first-ever Super Bowl.
The Ravens have a superb defense, and the offense has been clicking of late as they hung 34 points on the Houston Texans in their divisional-round matchup on Saturday.
