DraftKings bettor wins $489,383.01 on Christian McCaffrey's TD in 14-Leg TD Scorer Parlay

Christian McCaffrey's big season helped a bettor win almost $500,000 on a 14-pick touchdown parlay, making for a happy holiday.

Christian McCaffrey has been an absolute game-changer for the San Francisco 49ers this season. In his first full year with the NFC West squad, the three-time All-Pro running back has put up some incredible numbers, with 244 carries for 1,292 yards and 13 touchdowns. Not only that, but his versatility has allowed him to add 509 receiving yards and seven touchdowns to his impressive season stats.

McCaffrey's impact even extended beyond the football field when he helped a lucky bettor hit a massive parlay on DraftKings. This bettor, Travis Dufner, placed a $5 wager and ended up winning a jaw-dropping $489,383.01 after McCaffrey scored a crucial touchdown against the Baltimore Ravens in Week 16.

The excitement of this win was captured on video and shared by the Bleacher Report Betting Twitter account. In the video, Dufner can be seen wearing Christmas colors and celebrating with his friends as McCaffrey's touchdown secured his incredible parlay victory.

It turns out that Dufner is a financial advisor from New Jersey, specializing in retirement planning and wealth management. With nearly half a million dollars in winnings, he'll certainly have to put his financial expertise to good use as he figures out how to manage his newfound fortune.

In addition to McCaffrey, Dufner's parlay included several other players such as Najee Harris, Gabriel Davis, and Jonathan Taylor. McCaffrey's touchdown against the Ravens came in the first half, but unfortunately, it wasn't enough to secure a win for the 49ers. The Ravens ultimately came out on top with a 33-19 victory.

Despite the loss, the 49ers still hold the top seed in the NFC, while the Ravens improved to 12-3. Looking ahead, the 49ers will face the Washington Commanders in their next game, while the Ravens will host the Miami Dolphins in what is sure to be an exciting matchup.
