The struggling Washington Commanders will attempt to secure their second win of the season on the road against the undefeated San Francisco 49ers on Monday Night Football.

With lead running back Jacory Croskey-Merritt (groin) sidelined and star receiver Stefon Diggs (hamstring) questionable, Washington may lean heavily on veteran wideout Terry McLaurin.

Kickoff from Levi’s Stadium is at 8:15 p.m. ET. The 49ers are heavy 7.5-point home favorites with -395 moneyline odds on DraftKings Sportsbook. The Commanders are +310 underdogs, with the game total set at O/U 51.5 points. 

Let’s dive into the top Terry McLaurin prop bet for Monday’s primetime clash between the Commanders and the 49ers.

Terry McLaurin Receiving Yards Pick for Monday Night Football

Best Bet: Terry McLaurin Under 48.5 Receiving Yards (-114)

After an injury-riddled 2025, Terry McLaurin has reprised his role as a dependable pass-catcher for young quarterback Jayden Daniels. The veteran receiver has caught 14 of 26 targets for a team-high 203 yards and one touchdown. He has surpassed 48.5 receiving yards in three straight contests, most recently catching four passes for 62 yards in last week’s tie with the New York Giants.  

McLaurin could see an expanded role on Monday Night Football, with Jacory Croskey-Merritt sidelined and Stefon Diggs questionable. That said, it seems unlikely that he’ll find a runway to clear his receiving-yards line in a nightmare matchup with the 49ers. 

The undefeated Super Bowl favorites (+550 on DraftKings Sportsbook) are dominant on both sides of the ball and have largely suppressed their opponents’ passing attacks. Despite playing from ahead for much of the season, San Francisco ranks 7th in the NFL in passing yards allowed per game (199.6) and third in opponent yards per reception (9.4). Looking exclusively at opposing wideouts, the 49ers have allowed the league’s second-fewest targets (86), fourth-fewest receptions (51), and sixth-fewest yards (634) to the position.
