First Touchdown Scorer Predictions for Sunday Night Football Week 3
The Sunday slate wraps up with the defending champion and Super Bowl odds favorite Kansas City Chiefs taking on a scrappy, new-look Atlanta Falcons team coming off a big win against the Philadelphia Eagles.
Neither of these teams has been lighting up the scoreboard, so our first touchdown scorer predictions for Sunday Night Football will take some faith that they can pick things up in that department. We're at least backing one of these quarterbacks to have a big game with our Patrick Mahomes player props.
Injuries will play a part in who could tally the first score of the night for the Chiefs, but one thing is clear: we're not expecting much from a certain tight end as we outlined in our Travis Kelce SNF player prop.
Meanwhile, despite fading Kirk Cousins with our Chiefs vs. Falcons prediction, we firmly believe in one of his receiving options.

Chiefs first touchdown scorer prediction: Xavier Worthy, WR ⭐⭐⭐⭐
Best odds: +1100 via FanDuel | Implied probability: 8.33%
Worthy introduced himself to the nation in Week 1 against the Baltimore Ravens with an electric 21-yard touchdown run on the Chiefs' first possession. He crossed the goal line a second time on a 35-yard pass from Mahomes.
The rookie wideout accounts for 40% of his team’s total touchdowns this season. I expect Kansas City to get more creative with him this week, especially in the running game with Isiah Pacheco on the injured reserve.
Atlanta didn't give up a Pittsburgh touchdown in Week 1 but allowed the Eagles to complete a pass for the first touchdown of the game.

Falcons first touchdown scorer prediction: Darnell Mooney, WR ⭐⭐⭐
Best odds: +2000 via FanDuel | Implied probability: 4.76%
Mooney had a stellar night against the Eagles in Week 2, securing three of his seven targets for 88 yards and a spectacular touchdown catch.
The former Chicago Bears wideout was instrumental in Atlanta’s game-winning drive against Philadelphia, hauling in two passes for 46 yards. That type of clutch performance earns trust with your quarterback, which leads to more opportunities.
Kansas City has surrendered just four touchdowns all season, but the wide receiver position has yielded two of them.
