Daily fantasy sports operator Underdog is offering new users a promotional deal tied to this weekend’s NFL matchup between the New York Giants and Houston Texans. Under the promo code NYPOST, new sign-ups who play $5 can receive $100 in bonus value, applicable to the Giants-Texans game or any other Week 7 contest.
The bonus comes with a 1x playthrough requirement, meaning users must enter contests totaling the combined amount of their deposit and bonus funds. For example, a $100 deposit paired with a $100 bonus would require $200 in total contest entry fees before funds can be withdrawn.
The Matchup
The Texans host the Giants on Sunday as Houston seeks a third straight win after opening the season with four consecutive losses. The Giants, meanwhile, are looking to right themselves after a 3-1 start to the year. Houston is favored by 10.5 points, though the Giants have gone 4-2 against the spread this season.
Texans quarterback C.J. Stroud has thrown for 1,714 yards this season, the second-most in the NFL, with nine touchdowns against a single interception. He’ll face a Giants defense that ranks fifth in the league in passing yards allowed per game, at 190.2. The Giants have scored at least 27 points in three consecutive games, though their defense has given up at least 24 points in each of those contests. The Texans have been especially potent recently, combining for 65 points against Jacksonville and 64 against Dallas in their last two outings.
