All 32 NFL teams are on the field this weekend in Week 1 of the NFL preseason, which has been reduced to just 3 games since last year. There are 8 games on Saturday’s slate, plus the Raiders vs Vikings game on Sunday, and we’ve chosen 3 picks for Saturday’s games to form our mega parlay. It includes some of the most interesting matchups of the weekend too, with games featuring top teams such as the Kansas City Chiefs and Tampa Bay Buccaneers, while Super Bowl champions the Los Angeles Rams make their first appearance against city rivals the Chargers.
Betting on preseason games is not to everyone’s taste, and most of the challenge is assessing which team will be taking the game more seriously and playing their better players deeper into the game, but as long as you keep stakes small a small interest at decent odds can still pay off. That sounds like a Saturday mega parlay!
Let’s take a look at the three components of our parlay, which pays at +611 odds at DraftKings Sportsbook at time of publishing.
Let's break down each of the legs in our Saturday selection.
