Jalen Hurts, QB, Eagles (+700) ⭐⭐⭐⭐
Jalen Hurts sits second among all quarterbacks with eight rushing touchdowns. Yet his season as a ball-carrier has been a little odd in that he's averaging a quality 29.5 yards per game across the signal-caller's last four contests, a stretch in which Hurts hasn't scored.
But a quarterback who leads his position in rushing attempts inside the 5-yard line (12) is well-suited to end that scoreless run on Sunday, especially if he logs his third consecutive game with seven-plus carries.
He'll be taking that volume against a highly vulnerable Buffalo Bills defense against the run. The Bills sit 29th while allowing 144.3 rushing yards per game. Even better, the Bills have given up the fourth-most rushing yards to quarterbacks, and they're tied for the sixth-most touchdowns.
