Wide receiver props have been released for Super Bowl LVIII on SI Sportsbook.

SI Sportsbook is expecting a close game with the San Francisco 49ers favored by just 1.5 points over the Kansas City Chiefs. The game total is set at 47.5.

San Francisco boasts two top wide receivers in Deebo Samuel and Brandon Aiyuk. Aiyuk finished the regular season with the ninth-most receiving yards per game (83.9) on an average of just 6.6 targets per game. Samuel logged 59.5 receiving yards per game and continued to prove his versatility with 225 ground yards and five rushing touchdowns. Aiyuk leads the Niners in targets (14) while Samuel leads in yards for the postseason (113).

The Chiefs’ primary wideout this seasonhas been rookie Rashee Rice, who logged 938 yards during the regular season -- just 46 fewer than tight end Travis Kelce -- and he caught 79 of his 102 targets. In the postseason, he has averaged 8.3 targets and 74 receiving yards per game.

San Francisco 49ers quarterback Brock Purdy will square off against Kansas City chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes in Super Bowl LVIII in Las Vegas.

San Francisco and Kansas City were among the best defenses during the regular season. The Chiefs allowed the fourth-fewest receiving yards (124 per game) and only 19 touchdowns to wideouts. The 49ers allowed 147 yards per game and just 20 touchdowns to the position.

In the postseason, the Chiefs have allowed 139 and one touchdown per game on average. The Niners have allowed 142.5 and one touchdown per game.
