Texans vs. Chiefs Anytime Touchdown Scorer Predictions: Sunday Night Football TD Picks

My Texans vs. Chiefs anytime touchdown scorer predictions for Sunday Night Football spotlight three players who should find the end zone tonight.

Kickoff from GEHA Field at Arrowhead Stadium in Kansas City, Mo., is set for 8:20 p.m. ET (NBC). The host Chiefs (6-6) are a 3.5 to 4.5-point betting favorite against the Houston Texans (7-5) with an Over/Under of just 41.5. Given the low betting total, we're seeing lengthened anytime touchdown scorer odds, and our three-leg parlay of Xavier Worthy, Jayden Higgins, and Patrick Mahomes would return a profit of $1,200 on a winning $10 bet at DraftKings. Our NFL weather report is calling for a cold game with temperatures around 21 degrees at game time.

Xavier Worthy, WR, Chiefs (+310) ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Amid the many questions surrounding the Chiefs' lackluster play and resultant record entering Week 14 is the fact Xavier Worthy has just one touchdown through 10 games after scoring nine times in his rookie campaign.

Worthy's averaging 11.5 yards per reception while catching an adequate 59.3% of his targets. Yet his only receiving touchdown was in mid-October, and he has zero rushing touchdowns after scoring three such TDs last season.

The Texans allow a league-low 53.7% catch rate to receivers, but they've still given up seven touchdowns to the position. Worthy continues to play the bulk of the offensive snaps, and he was targeted 33 times over his last five games.

I'm starting my Texans vs. Chiefs anytime touchdown scorer predictions with a $10 bet on Worthy to score for the second time this season. A winnger wager would return a $31 profit at FanDuel - $2 more than the +290 odds at DraftKings would pay.

Jayden Higgins, WR, Texans (+380) ⭐⭐⭐⭐

After a slow start to his rookie season, Jayden Higgins was targeted 28 times over his past four games, doubling his touchdown total for the season in that time. The second-round pick has caught 64% of his 50 targets for 359 yards.

Though the Chiefs have given up eight touchdowns to wide receivers, they allow a 66.8% catch rate and 7.66 yards per target to the position. Higgins has cemented himself as the Texans' No. 2 receiver behind Nico Collins, and I expect him to be involved throughout the game with the Texans listed as the short underdog by the NFL Week 14 odds.

Our Phil Wood is backing Texans running back Nick Chubb to score with his Texans vs. Chiefs player props.

Patrick Mahomes, QB, Chiefs (+475) ⭐⭐⭐⭐

Our best NFL prop betting sites are showing the greatest discrepancy in Patrick Mahomes' odds to score tonight. The +475 odds at DraftKings would return a profit of $47.50 on a winning $10 bet. The same bet at FanDuel's +420 odds would return a lesser profit of $42.

Mahomes has four rushing touchdowns on the season. Though all of those were scored before mid-October, he rushed a combined seven times for 60 yards over his past two games. It's crunch time for the Chiefs, as they remain outside of a wild-card spot with five weeks to go. With the betting lines projecting a tight, low-scoring game, I'll be counting on Mahomes to make a little extra happen himself to cash this long-shot anytime touchdown scorer prediction.

Our Corey Scott also expects Mahomes to score in his Texans vs. Chiefs first TD scorer predictions, and Mike Spector is counting on the Chiefs QB to go over his rushing yards line with his Texans vs. Chiefs prediction.

He's also a key part of Brenden Schaeffer's Texans vs. Chiefs same-game parlay.
