The Tampa Bay Buccaneers and Kansas City Chiefs clash in Super Bowl 55 Sunday evening at Raymond James Stadium in Tampa, Fla. Bucs TE Rob Gronkowski, who came out of retirement to reunite with QB Tom Brady in Tampa, will look to put the feather in the cap of an excellent comeback season. Below, we look at Rob Gronkowski’s Super Bowl prop bets with NFL picks and predictions.

Proposition betting is one of the most popular types of wagers in the world. In fact, even people who do not gamble on sports engage in propositions. However, Coloradans need to pay special attention to props these days, thanks to the advent of a particular type of proposition that has taken US sports betting.

• The Grand Salami prop bets are a type of prop betting market also seen in the MLB where you are waging over/under on the number of goals scored each night across all of the NHL action. Like regular over/under markets a line will be set, for example, 24.5 goals with odds.
• 1 day ago  John has spent the past 20+ years betting sports on a daily basis and is considered by many to be a walking sports betting encyclopedia. From obscure player props to sides and totals, if there is.
• Prop bets are available for NBA, NFL, MLB, soccer, MMA, and more. In fact, you can hypothetically place a prop bet on any sport you can name. You will generally find the largest selection of proposition bets for mainstream sports. But you may still find prop bets available for smaller betting.
• Prop bets serve two purposes in the sports betting world. First, they can be a great source of entertainment and fun especially for bettors who are new to a sport or don’t fully understand all the nuances of the games. Second, they can be a crucial piece of a long term profitable and winning sports betting.

Bucs’ first touchdown scorer: +900

Gronkowski is priced at +1800 to score the first touchdown of Super Bowl 55 and +225 for an anytime touchdown, but I like the sweet spot of the value with the Bucs’ first 6-point score.

The future Hall of Famer has three career touchdown catches in the Super Bowl, all from Brady during their dynastic run with the New England Patriots. Gronk also shared the Bucs’ team lead with 21 red-zone targets this season. Should the Patriots get into the red zone Sunday evening, expect Brady to look for his biggest, most-trustworthy option with most of his other targets playing in their first Super Bowl.

Receiving yards: OVER 29.5 (-105)

Sometimes you have to trust the line set by the books, but that’s not the case here. Gronkowski caught 6 of 7 targets for 106 yards in the Week 12 meeting with the Chiefs at Raymond James Stadium. Sure, the Chiefs defense will be tightened up in the Big Game, but Gronk is a big-game player and has the full trust of his legendary quarterback.

It’ll likely take a few catches for him to get to 30 yards Sunday, but that’ll suit the Bucs just fine.

Receptions made: OVER 2.5 (-105)

Gronkowski has just 2 catches on 7 targets through three playoff games thus far. The Bucs will look to move slowly down the field in order to keep the Chiefs offense off the field in Super Bowl LV, so look for Brady to target Gronk in the center of the field more often to keep the clock running.

Sports Interaction Prop Bets Results

This follows suit of the above pick as Gronkowski should be used to pick up first downs and control the pace of play. His one catch against the Packers in the NFC Championship went for 29 yards, but he had just 10 catches of 20-plus yards in the regular season.

He, and all Bucs pass-catchers, will likely be asked to play conservatively in the center of the field rather than risk going out of bounds and stopping the clock on sideline runs.
