NFL Player Props You Should Be Betting On Week 15: Player Prop Bets Include Bijan Robinson, Cooper Kupp, and Mike Evans

What are the top Week 15 NFL player props from our experts? We preview the 11 games Sunday and include a bonus MNF pick as well.

Sunday of NFL Week 15 brings us a loaded day of action that provides plenty of NFL betting opportunities when it comes to player props. With 11 games spread across the three slates, there are several options for you to pick from. Below you will find the top picks from our experts in terms of Week 15 NFL player props.

NFL Player Prop Bets For Week 15

Desmond Ridder Under 185.5 Passing Yards (-114 at FanDuel)

Katz: Last week, Desmond Ridder threw for a career-high 347 yards. Yet, his line is under 200 this week. Why? It was situational. The Tampa Bay Buccaneers have a pass-funnel defense, and the game script forced the Atlanta Falcons to throw more than they ever wanted to.

In Ridder’s previous two games where the Falcons won and were largely in control, Ridder threw for 121 and 168 yards.

In Week 1, against these very same Carolina Panthers, Ridder threw for 115 yards in a convincing win.

Unless the Panthers can take a two-score lead, the Falcons will be content to run the ball 35+ times. That means a lot of Bijan Robinson and not a lot of Ridder throwing the ball. Plus, the Panthers are awful against the run but allow just 185 passing yards per game, the third-fewest in the league. Ridder shouldn’t get much beyond 150 in this one.

Cooper Kupp Over 72.5 Receiving Yards (-114 at FanDuel)

Katz: Death. Taxes. Wide receivers against the Washington Commanders. No team allows more receiving yards per game to the wide receiver position than the 198 of the Commanders, which is a whopping 30 more than the next team.

Cooper Kupp is coming off his best game in nearly two months, catching eight passes for 115 yards and a touchdown. This number should be easy for him to surpass in a game, and Matthew Stafford should be able to throw at will.

Logan Thomas Over 32.5 Receiving Yards (-114 at FanDuel)

Katz: It’s been quite the rough stretch for Logan Thomas. In his last two games, he caught two of four targets for 15 yards and then didn’t catch his lone target. But before then, he enjoyed a five-game stretch with at least 31 yards in every game.

The Commanders should be trailing, and thus, throwing. More importantly, the Los Angeles Rams allow 62 receiving yards per game to tight ends, the fourth-most in the league. With Sam Howell likely attempting 35+ passes, Thomas should see enough work to hit this number.

Rashee Rice Under 5.5 Receptions (-125 at FanDuel)

Katz: It’s been an incredible stretch for Rashee Rice, as he’s finally ascended to the clear WR1 on the Kansas City Chiefs. Over his last three games, he’s tallied reception totals of seven, eight, and eight. But before that, he hadn’t surpassed five receptions in a single game all season.

The reality is six catches is a lot for just about any receiver. As bad as the New England Patriots have been overall, they’ve been quite good defensively. On the road against a tough defense, I think Rice is held to 4-5 catches.

Garrett Wilson Over 4.5 Receptions/Zay Jones Over 3.5 Receptions Parlay (+178 at DraftKings)

Katz: This is a new type of bet I’m experimenting with. Last week, we hit on a +162 two-player receptions parlay. Let’s try it again.

Garrett Wilson saw 14 targets last week. That was in a game the New York Jets dominated throughout. The last time the Jets played the Miami Dolphins, they saw a negative game script, and Wilson caught seven of 10 targets.

Zach Wilson played the best game of his career last week and peppered Garrett with targets. I expect more of the same this week. Given how often the Jets draw up quick hitters to Garrett, he should easily get to five receptions.

As for Zay Jones, this is a bet on pure volume. Over the past two games, with Christian Kirk out, Jones saw eight and 14 targets. He was woefully inefficient, catching just five balls in each, but five is more than enough here.

Trevor Lawrence has keyed in on Evan Engram, but he can’t catch every pass. What’s Lawrence’s alternative? Throw to Calvin Ridley? Sounds like a terrible idea. Look for Lawrence to once again throw 8+ passes in Jones’ direction. We only need him to catch half.

Bijan Robinson Anytime Touchdown (+120 at ESPNBet)

Rolfe: After weeks of fantasy football managers screaming out for it, the Falcons have finally started to utilize their best running back in and around the goal line consistently. Thankfully, Robinson has not disappointed, with four touchdowns in the last four games and five in the last six.

There is no reason with that success rate we should see the Falcons change tactics, and this week Robinson gets a wonderful matchup. In the last four weeks, the Panthers have allowed five rushing touchdowns, making Robinson’s odds of +120 feel like a bargain this week.

Mike Evans Anytime Touchdown (+148 at ESPNBet)

Rolfe: Anytime I can get Mike Evans this far above even, I am going to jump on it and not look back. Evans has an impressive 10 receiving touchdowns in 13 games this season and has five in the last five games. He had an off day last week but should be heavily targeted again this week.

The wind could be a nuisance for the passing games in Lambeau Field, but it shouldn’t be so drastic we don’t see Baker Mayfield target his favorite touchdown machine around the end zone this week. The value here on Evans is simply too good to pass up.

Evan Engram Anytime Touchdown (+275 at ESPNBet)

Bearman: Two weeks ago, I threw a long shot out there and predicted Engram would finally score a TD this season. He did and added two more last week. Evidently, the Jags finally figured out throwing to him was a good idea, as he has 8+ targets in each of the last three games. They now like him in the end zone, and he is still +275 to score. Let’s hit him again.

DK Metcalf Anytime Touchdown (+165 at ESPNBet)

Rolfe: Here is a bonus pick for Monday Night Football to close out the article. The Philadelphia Eagles have allowed nine passing touchdowns in the past four weeks as their defensive frailties have shown up. Now they get to face DK Metcalf who has four touchdowns in the past two weeks and five in the past four.

Geno Smith should be back this week, but even if he isn’t Drew Lock and Metcalf hooked up for a touchdown last week. Metcalf is in some of the best form of his life right now, and +165 is great value on what should be a clear afternoon/evening in Seattle.
