Patriots fans beware, the Iceman cometh. No, we’re not talking about his upcoming album. Drake placed a hefty $1 million wager on Patriots through the sports betting platform Stake that would net him nearly $3 million if the Pats pull off the upset. Drake’s bet of $1,000,000 on the New England Patriots to win with an estimated payout of $2,950,000.
There’s a glimmer of hope for Drake and Patriots fans, though. Drake has placed a $1 million wager on the New England Patriots via the Stake platform, with an estimated payout of $2.95 million if the Pats pull off the upset. Across markets, the Seahawks are listed as 4.5-point favorites, and the Patriots sit as +200 underdogs on the moneyline. The move fits a broader pattern of high-stakes wagering by the rapper, who has a history of placing six-figure bets on major events.
This past December, he wagered $200,000 on Jake Paul to defeat Anthony Joshua, and his Copa America bet on Canada to beat Argentina involved a six-figure sum as well. There’s potential upside for Drake and Patriots fans, though, as a win could push the payout toward roughly $3 million, highlighting the risk-reward nature of celebrity bets when a single game steers the market.
