Thursday Night Football Parlay Trends: Washington Commanders vs. New York Giants 11/12/26

Updated:

With the 2026 NFL season in full swing, DraftKings is back with a tool to help you build the ultimate parlay. Start by selecting one pick – an “Anchor” bet – and choose how many legs you want. Then, the Free Trending Parlay Picks Optimizer will give you a custom parlay based on games in which the Anchor bet has previously won.

The Washington Commanders and New York Giants are set to face off in the first game of Week 10, going head-to-head on Thursday Night Football. DraftKings Sportsbook has New York pegged as a 2.5-point favorite at home. The Giants just eked out another win over the banged-up Eagles to improve to 5-2-1 and take a stronger hold atop the NFC East. As for the Commanders, they have come up one score short against both the Rams and 49ers while also beating the Eagles since tying the Giants in Week 5.

If you feel good about a lack of points on Thursday night, here is a fresh NFL SGP Anchor via the Free Trending Parlay Picks Optimizer.

  • Under 41.5 total points (-115)
    • Theo Johnson under 0.5 receptions (+131)
    • Theo Johnson under 4.5 receiving yards (-111)
    • Malik Nabers under 5.5 receptions (+108)
    • Darnell Mooney over 1.5 receptions (-110)

Combined Odds: +1300

Creating a parlay with the appropriate angles on the specific totals listed above would have hit each of the last three times that New York has played in a game with fewer than 42 combined points on the board. So, instead of simply picking under 41.5 total points at -115, you can ride these additional trends on Thursday versus the Commanders. The Giants’ last game finished under 41.5, for what it’s worth, while the Commanders have had three straight come in under that total.

On the other side of the contest, picking Jayden Daniels to pass for over 201.5 yards could be a smart play considering he has done so in three straight starts. The Free Trending Parlay Picks Optimizer has run the numbers on that pick’s past success as an NFL SGP Anchor, as well.

  • Jayden Daniels over 201.5 passing yards (-111)
    • Jayden Daniels under 35.5 rushing yards (-114)
    • Rachaad White 50+ rushing + receiving yards (-175)
    • Chigoziem Okonkwo 25+ receiving yards (-242)
    • Under 41.5 total points (-115)

Combined Odds: +1200

Creating a parlay with the appropriate angles on the specific totals listed above would have hit each of the last three times Daniels passed for at least 201.5 yards. Keep these trends in mind if you’re confident in Daniels throwing all over the Giants defense on Thursday night.
