Dolphins vs. Patriots Player Props Today | Best Week 18 Prop Bets & TD Picks
Last Updated: January 4, 2026 12:30 PM EST • 3 minute read X Social Google News Link
With Mike McDaniel’s job security seemingly in the balance, my Dolphins vs. Patriots player props expect McDaniel to call plays with something to prove today. With the bye almost certainly out of reach of New England, the motivation factor could favor the Dolphins in this spot.
The action for Dolphins vs. Patriots kicks off from Gillette Stadium in Foxborough, Mass., at 4:25 p.m. ET (FOX). The Patriots are 11.5-point betting favorites as part of our NFL Week 18 predictions.

Jaylen Wright Over 60.5 rushing yards (-115) ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Jaylen Wright is expected to get the start in lieu of De’Von Achane after the latter’s downgrade to doubtful on the injury report. Wright showed good burst in his last game, turning a handful of carries into 56 rushing yards.
With an uptick in workload against a Patriots defense with motivations that I consider to be uncertain, I like Wright for a big output on Sunday. New England has allowed 167.7 rushing yards per game over its last three contests.

Kayshon Boutte Over 29.5 receiving yards (-113) ⭐⭐⭐⭐
With off-field issues swirling around Stefon Diggs, here’s a spot for Kayshon Boutte to get into rhythm before the playoffs. He faces a Miami defense that has allowed 276.7 passing yards per game over its last three contests.
Drake Maye has some MVP stats to pad in this game, so Boutte should be the beneficiary of a deep ball or two. With a receiving line at only 29.5 yards, it may only take one downfield shot to hit Over on this prop.
Malik Washington anytime TD scorer (+475) ⭐⭐⭐⭐
With Jaylen Waddle questionable for this matchup, we like Malik Washington’s anytime TD scorer value from BetMGM (+475 odds). Even if Waddle suits up, the duration of his efforts are uncertain given the context of Week 18.
Washington will face a Patriots defense that has allowed 16 receiving scores to opposing wideouts—only eight teams have allowed more. Plus, with McDaniel motivated to impress, Washington could benefit from a trick play that gets the ball into his hands in space.
