What is BetMGM’s second-chance promo for first TD bets?

The BetMGM promo for first TD scorer bets applies to every game on the NFL Week 5 schedule this week. Place a pregame, real money bet on any player to score a game’s first touchdown. If that player scores first, you win your bet and receive your winnings as usual. If that player does not score the first TD but does score the second TD of the game, BetMGM will automatically refund your stake.

The promo is only available on real money bets that you place prior to the start of the game. Wagers with bonus bets or reward tokens are not eligible, and BetMGM will pay any applicable refunds in real money rather than bonus bets or reward tokens. That means you can immediately withdraw the refund if you prefer.

New BetMGM customers are also eligible for a separate welcome bonus in addition to the first TD scorer promo. When you sign up with the code PLAYLSR and make an initial deposit of $10 or more, BetMGM will cover your first bet for any amount up to $1,500.

This means that if your first bet as a new customer loses, you’ll receive a refund in the form of bonus bets good for any amount up to $1,500. However, unlike the first TD promo, you can’t withdraw these bonus bets, but you can use them to wager on any sport that BetMGM offers. New customers can use this promo in addition to and not instead of the first TD scorer promo.

First TD scorer favorites in Week 5

Justin Jefferson, WR, Minnesota Vikings

Jefferson is the Vikings’ leading receiver, averaging a TD per game through the first four weeks of the season. He’s scored the first TD of the game in two of Minnesota’s first four games, and he figures to be a primary target for QB Sam Darnold in Sunday’s NFL London matchup against the New York Jets.

Derrick Henry, RB, Baltimore Ravens

Henry has been a staple of the Baltimore offense through four games, averaging 120 rushing yards per game with five TDs so far. He’s scored the first touchdown in half of the Ravens’ games so far, including last week’s 87-yard run to notch the first points of the game in a win over the Buffalo Bills. This week, with the Ravens facing a Cincinnati Bengals team that’s been among the worst defenses in the AFC against the run so far, he’s likely to get the ball early and often.

Jordan Mason, RB, San Francisco 49ers

Mason has scored three TDs through four games while playing in place of the injured Christian McCaffrey. This week’s game sees San Francisco take on the Arizona Cardinals, a team that’s struggled to stop the run.
