Week 14 player props: Nacua among 4 pass-catchers set for big games
Props, props, and more props! It's Week 14 of the NFL season, and perhaps you need something else to cheer for with your fantasy team already eliminated from playoff contention.
We identified six props to supplement our Week 14 betting preview.
Jordan Addison - Over 49.5 receiving yards (+100)
Addison has been producing recently, clearing 50 receiving yards in three straight contests. He turned in games of 54 and 61 receiving yards when Justin Jefferson went over 80 yards, and when the Bears held Jefferson to only two catches for 27 yards, Addison exploded for 162 receiving yards and eight grabs.
He should be able to surpass 50 yards through the air for a fourth straight game, regardless of how the Falcons try to defend the Vikings' passing attack.
Kirk Cousins - Under 35.5 passing attempts (-130)
Cousins looked terrible in the Falcons' Week 13 loss to the Chargers. He threw four interceptions and only completed 24 of 39 attempts. There's a real chance Cousins gets pulled in this game and replaced by rookie Michael Penix Jr.
Even if Cousins plays the entire game, he's only attempted 36 or more passes in three of 12 games this season. His -130 odds imply a 56.5% probability, but he's gone under 35.5 passing attempts in 75% of his starts.
Will Levis - Over 1.5 passing touchdowns (+135)
Levis has thrown for two or more touchdowns in three of his last four games and now gets to tee off on a weak Jaguars defense conceding an average of two passing touchdowns per contest.
This is a bet on the numbers, with Levis' +135 odds implying a probability of 42.6%. Levis has a far better chance than his odds suggest if he continues to play as well as he has since returning from injury.
Trey McBride - Over 69.5 receiving yards (-120)
McBride is the focal point of the Cardinals' passing attack. He's caught 12 balls in each of his past two games and leads Arizona's pass-catchers in receptions and yards by a wide margin. One of those 12-reception games was against the Seahawks when McBride tallied a season-high 133 yards.
He's surpassed 69.5 receiving yards in five of his past seven games while seeing an average of 8.9 targets per contest over that span.
Puka Nacua - Over 79.5 receiving yards (-110)
Targeting the best wide receiver on the field is never a bad idea in a game with shootout potential. The total in the Rams-Bills game is 49.5, the highest for Sunday's slate.
Nacua has eclipsed 79.5 receiving yards in three of his past four games and should be heavily involved if the Rams have any chance of keeping up with the Bills. He's averaged 11 targets per game over his last four.
Travis Kelce - Over 5.5 receptions (-140)
Look for the Chiefs to try to make a statement against the Chargers on Sunday night. Whether they're victorious or not, expect Kelce to see a full workload as they seek an important division win.
He's hauled in six or more Patrick Mahomes passes in seven of his past nine games - a 77.8% rate - while his -140 odds suggest there's only a 58.3% probability.
