Which NFL Week 15 Player Prop Bets Should I Make?
Texans RB Woody Marks Anytime TD (-160)
Running backs have gouged the Cardinals for 26.1 PPR points a game on the year, and only the Cincinnati Bengals and New York Giants have been worse. In 13 outings, the position has scored 18 total times, and 10 of those TDs have come in the last five weeks alone!
Rams RB Kyren Williams Anytime TD (-140)
In a Rams offense that consistently funnels scoring chances through its lead back, Williams is usually the first option when drives reach goal-to-go. Even if the ground game stalls, his involvement as a receiver keeps multiple TD paths open.
Rams WR Puka Nacua 8+ Receptions (-133)
Nacua’s weekly target profile makes eight grabs feel more like a normal day at the office against a Lions secondary that is down to starting just about anyone who’ll fit into a jersey at this point. A game script that tilts pass-heavy only strengthens the bet, because the Rams are comfortable feeding him on quick hitters, and Davante Adams (hamstring) enters at less than one-hundy.
Browns WR Jerry Jeudy 40+ Receiving Yards (-109)
Cleveland doesn’t need a spike game from Jeudy for this to cash — 40 yards can be reached on a handful of chain-moving catches. With David Njoku out, Jeudy’s floor looks sturdy at near-even money.
Patriots RB TreVeyon Henderson 70+ Total Yards (-101)
New England can manufacture this number with a balanced mix of carries plus designed touches in space, which is exactly how Henderson racks up chunk gains. At essentially even odds, 70 total yards is a reasonable bar if his snap share stays steady against one of the worst run defenses in the league.
Texans TE Dalton Schultz 40+ Receiving Yards (+114)
In 69.2% of the games faced, TEs have hit this modest yardage mark, and Schultz has averaged 44.2 yards this year, reaching this mark six times. He was a yard short in the Week 3 trip to Duval, and Schultz would have paid on this prop in four of the last six games.
Bengals TE Mike Gesicki Anytime TD (+190)
In the red zone, Gesicki’s size and catch radius can turn a single schemed look into six points, even if his between-the-20s usage is modest. You’re essentially betting on a specialty role paying off with Tee Higgins out, and the payout reflects that risk-reward calculation.
Ravens TE Isaiah Likely Anytime TD (+200)
Baltimore’s play-action game routinely creates mismatches for Likely especially when defenses are forced to pick their poison between Derrick Henry and Lamar Jackson on the ground. Likely doesn’t need a high target count — just one coverage bust or mismatch near the goal line pays handsomely.
Jaguars RB Bhayshul Tuten Anytime TD (+285)
At these odds, this is the wildest wager of the week, dependent on goal-line opportunities, a hot-hand rotation, or one explosive play to do the job. The Jets have allowed 15 rushing scores on the year to the position, and there’s always a chance Tuten gets the “jaguar’s share” of the late-game touches if Jacksonville is up big.
