🔥 Aaron Jones Sr. anytime touchdown scorer (+155) ⭐⭐⭐⭐
Some think Jordan Mason will take over for Aaron Jones as the season wears on, but I have zero concern over Jones’ role tonight. Last season, he put together two great games against the Bears, rushing for 106 yards in the first contest and 86 in the second. He scored a touchdown in both meetings.
Jones finished with just seven touchdowns last season, but since he never scored more than a single touchdown in a game, he ended up finding the end zone in 41% of his games. The price of +155 at FanDuel implies that Jones has a 39.22% chance of scoring in this game, which seems very low considering his success last year. A successful $10 bet would pay $15.50.
⬆️ Caleb Williams Over 218.5 passing yards (-111) ⭐⭐⭐⭐
Caleb Williams threw for fewer than 200 yards in four of his final five games last season. One of those performances came against the Vikings. And yet, Williams threw for 340 yards against the same defense in Week 12.
Though Williams’ rookie year was far from great, he threw for more than 218.5 passing yards seven times. Now, he gets to start his second season against a defense that allowed over 240 passing yards per game in 2024-25. Even if there isn’t a lot of growth from Williams in his second season, this is a great matchup, and the best sports betting sites are undervaluing him.
The best price available is at DraftKings, where the Over is going for -111. This price implies a 52.61% chance Williams hits his Over, and a $10 bet would pay $9.09.
⬆️ DJ Moore Over 5.5 receptions (+115) ⭐⭐⭐⭐
Last season, DJ Moore totaled 15 catches against the Vikings, with at least seven in both contests. He also caught at least six passes in eight consecutive games to end the year.
Moore’s yardage total is set between just 55.5 and 58.5, but taking him to rack up receptions is the right play. Williams finished 33rd in yards per attempt last season. That means Moore could end up with a lot of catches and few yards. This happened last season when he managed fewer than 55 yards in three of his final five games despite recording 20 catches across those three contests.
The price of +115 being offered by both DraftKings and BetMGM suggests a 46.51% chance that Moore hits this Over. This is a much better deal than you’ll find at FanDuel, where his Over is priced at -102. At BetMGM, a $10 bet would pay $11.50.

How do NFL player props work?
Player props are wagers on individual performances rather than the outcome of the game. Common props include passing yards, rushing yards, receiving yards, and touchdown scorers. For example, if a QB’s passing yards line is set at 250.5, you can bet the Over (251-plus yards) or Under (250 or fewer yards). You can also bet on if a specific player will score a touchdown in the entire game, the first or last touchdown, and more NFL odds markets.
