Matthew Stafford's Final Kneel Causes Betting Controversy

Matthew Stafford isn’t known as a runner but plenty of bettors rode with the Rams' quarterback to finish with less than 5.5 rushing yards in Super Bowl LVI.

He went over, but just barely, and the way the end of the game unfolded affected those who bet this enticing prop and has caused a betting controversy.

Stafford had seven rushing yards when Los Angeles got the ball back with 39 seconds left and the game all but over since Cincinnati only had one timeout left.

The Rams went into victory formation, Stafford took a knee, lost a single yard to bring his total down to six rushing yards and that was it.
