National Tight Ends Day Yields Massive Parlays

Whether you celebrate the “holiday” or not, the 2024 iteration of National Tight Ends Day gave a number of bettors an experience that they’ll never forget. On the day earmarked for celebrating one of the less-glamorous offensive positions in football, Hard Rock Bet paid out a collection of remarkable tight end-centric parlays. Let’s take a look at the five best from National Tight Ends Day 2024… including an incredible $20 to $148,925 hit.

93-1 parlay turns $20 in to $2K

Our list begins with a 4-Bet anytime TD parlay, all in the early 1pm window, that struck gold. With odds of +9353, or roughly 93-1, this Hard Rock Bet bettor turned his $20 wager into $2,077.71 after Evan Engram hauled in a 14 yard touchdown reception with just 1:48 remaining in the fourth quarter, checking off the last wager on the ticket. Notably, a profit boost was applied to make the win 10% sweeter.

180-1: 10-Bet parlay utilizes the full menu

This sensational 10-Bet tight end parlay made full use of the extensive catalog of available bets on Hard Rock Bet. Mixing together anytime TD bets along with an assortment of props including reception and yardage overs, the +17998 parlay hit turning the $125 stake into a tantalizing $22,622.50.

311-1 anytime TD parlay connects

The third National Tight Ends Day parlay on our list looks a lot like the first, but this bettor took it further. While the first four legs were identical to the previous wager, a fifth bet was added on Dalton Kincaid of the Buffalo Bills who was playing in Seattle in the 4pm window. Thankfully our bettor didn’t have to sweat the entire game, with Kincaid finding the end zone just before halftime to cash this 311-1, +31096 bet, turning $5 into $1,559.79.

570-1: $1 and a dream

One Hard Rock Bet player crafted a 6-Leg “anytime TD” ticket comprised solely of tight ends. The $1 bet hit at the longshot odds of +56989 to turn the dollar wager into a $570.89 payout. While not the largest prize on the list, at 570-1 it’s an massive win.

The betslip included:

• ✅ Sam Laporta Anytime TD +195
• ✅ Cade Otton Anytime TD +180
• ✅ David Njoku Anytime TD +240
• ✅ Tucker Kraft Anytime TD +180

The largest hit of the day belonged to a Hard Rock Bet player who placed a jaw-dropping $20, 8-Bet parlay on a collection of touchdown-hungry tight ends. With odds of +744627, or 7,446-1, the bet paid out a remarkable $148,925.40. Seven of the eight wagers hit during the first wave of games, with Dalton Kincaid securing the enormous score against the Seahawks after connecting with Josh Allen.

The origins of National Tight Ends Day

One of the NFL’s more modern traditions, National Tight Ends Day was born out of a half-serious conversation on the 49ers sideline between Quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo, and tight ends George Kittle, and Garrett Celek back in 2018. In the years since, National Tight Ends Day has grown in scope and is now celebrated in official capacities league wide.

Interestingly enough, none of the parlays referenced above included the godfather of National Tight Ends Day himself, George Kittle, who celebrated with a 6/128/1 stat line on Sunday Night Football against the Cowboys.

When is National Tight Ends Day?

National Tight Ends day is penciled in for the fourth Sunday in October. Mark your calendars for next year: Sunday, October 26, 2025.
