Will Jake Tonges bets be refunded after injury during 49ers vs. Rams NFL Week 1?

San Francisco 49ers tight end Jake Tonges exited Thursday’s season opener against the Los Angeles Rams after suffering a leg injury in the first half. He will not return.

Tonges was blocking a rusher on the left side of the line when his leg got whipped.

He had to be helped off the field and to the medical tent, eventually getting carted to the locker room.

Before exiting, Tonges did not garner a target.

Will Jake Tonges bets be refunded?

Thankfully for eligible Tonges prop backers on DraftKings Sportsbook, because he left the game in the first half due to injury and did not return, DraftKings’ Early Exit Protected rules apply to qualifying wagers.

Eligible single bets on Tonges will be settled as void, with the original stake returned. For qualifying parlays and Same Game Parlays, the Tonges selection will be voided and the odds of the wager will be recalculated using the remaining legs.

Bets or selections that were already determined before Tonges’s injury may still be settled normally rather than receiving Early Exit protection.

DraftKings Early Exit FAQ

What is DraftKings Early Exit?

DraftKings Early Exit Protected is a free feature that automatically protects eligible NFL player prop bets during the first half. If an eligible player leaves during the first half because of an injury or officially confirmed illness and does not return, the qualifying selection is settled as void.

Which NFL bets are eligible for Early Exit?

Early Exit applies to eligible full-game NFL player props placed before the game, along with select eligible live bets. Qualifying wagers can include single bets, parlays and Same Game Parlays. In parlays, an eligible Early Exit selection is voided and the wager is recalculated using the remaining legs.

Is there a way to get injury protection on bets for the whole game?

Yes. DraftKings Early Exit+ is an optional feature that extends Early Exit protection into the second half of an NFL game for a fee equal to 3% of the wager amount. The fee is separate from the wager and is not refunded. You can upgrade to full-game protection without leaving your bet slip.
