NFL Player Prop Bets – Week 5
All Player Prop lines are from the DraftKings Sportsbook.
This will be updated throughout the week as new props are posted.
On October 6, 2021:
The Play: Kyle Pitts (ATL) Receiving Yards
The Line: 40.5 receiving yards
The Pick: Over (-115)
Pitts averages 47.3 yards/gm, with Week 3 a usage outlier game. His targets/gm. ranks 7th (tied), but his catches/gm. ranks 12th (tied). Their is efficiency improvement potential awaiting and the yardage should increase as the season progresses for the rookie.
On October 7, 2021:
The Play: Jacoby Brissett (MIA) Pass + Rush Yards
The Line: 258.5 pass + rush yards
The Pick: Under (-115)
Brissett should have issues getting close to either the passing or rushing mark against the Bucs.
The Play: Sam Darnold (CAR) Pass Attempts
The Line: 31.5 pass attempts
The Pick: Over (-120)
Darnold averages 36.5 pass attempts on the season, and will expect an implied passing-script here.
The Play: A.J. Brown (TEN) Receiving Yards
The Line: 50.5 receiving yards
The Pick: Over (-115)
A.J. Brown (hamstring) put in a full practice on Thursday and looks like a go. With Julio Jones (hamstring) expected to miss again, Brown should resume his role as the Titans’ top aerial target against a Jaguars’ defense ranked last in pass DVOA, 30th in pass yards allowed, and 27th vs. WRs in fantasy points allowed.
On October 8, 2021:
The Play: James Conner (ARI) Rush Yards
The Line: 33.5 rush yards
The Pick: Over (-130)
Chase Edmonds (shoulder) did not participate in practice this week and is a game-time decision. Even if Edmonds does suit up, his 62% snap share could take a hit, with Conner soaking up the majority of the carries.
On October 9, 2021:
The Play: Keelan Cole (NYJ) Receptions
The Line: 1.5 Receptions
The Pick: Under (-115)
With Elijah Moore (concussion) returning this week, the Jets will have all their WR starters healthy for the first time in the same week, leaving Cole out in the cold.
The Play: Elijah Moore (NYJ) Receiving Yards
The Line: 25.5 Receiving Yards
The Pick: Over (-115)
Moore resumes taking all the snaps in 11-personnel and should be good for approximately 6 targets, against a Falcons’ defense giving up the 12th most passing yards.
The Play: Adam Humphries (WAS) Receiving Yards
The Line: 19.5 Receiving Yards
The Pick: Over (-130)
Logan Thomas, Dyami Brown, and Cam Sims have been ruled out. Curtis Samuel (groin) is questionable. Humphries’ ability of availability should be enough to cover.
