The race to the bottom is on as the NFL's regular season begins to wrap up. Some teams are looking forward to the playoffs, while others like the New York Giants and Las Vegas Raiders have other things in mind. The players and coaching staff will play with the goal of maintaining spots on next year's team, but these two teams (both 2-13) are in contention for the No. 1 pick in next year's NFL Draft. The Giants would currently pick first, and a loss here would further secure that positioning. This meeting of two of the league's worst teams could actually have ramifications for years to come.

Kickoff from Allegiant Stadium is set for 4:05 p.m. ET on CBS and Paramount+. The Giants are 1.5-point favorites, per the latest Giants vs. Raiders odds from DraftKings, while the over/under for total points scored is 41.5. The Giants are -112 money line favorites (risk $112 to win $100), while the Raiders are -108 underdogs.
