Tennessee Sports Betting Handle In October Reaches $669.3 Million

Tennessee’s regulated online sports betting market posted its largest monthly handle on record in October, with the Tennessee Sports Wagering Council reporting $669.3 million in wagers accepted. The total wagered by bettors reached $673.7 million, the highest figure in any monthly state report since wagering launched in November 2020. The surge also produced a record $12.4 million in privilege tax revenue, pushing the state’s cumulative collections since launch to approximately $493.9 million. October has historically been the strongest month for Tennessee operators, driven by the overlap of the NFL season, college football, and the MLB postseason.
