NFL Week 13 is packed with intriguing matchups and exciting player prop opportunities. With key performances expected from stars like C.J. Stroud and Justin Herbert, I’ve identified the top player prop bets for Sunday’s action. From quarterbacks hitting milestones to receivers carving up defenses, these carefully chosen props offer excellent value and insight into game scripts. Let’s dive into this week’s top player props.
Texans QB CJ Stroud Over 1.5 Passing Touchdowns vs. Jaguars (+108, FanDuel)
Texans WR Nico Collins Over 81.5 Receiving Yards vs. Jaguars (-113, FanDuel)
The Jaguars have averaged 2.09 passing touchdowns allowed per game, most in the NFL. While Stroud has looked shaky this season overall, including last week, he is coming off a two-touchdown passing game and earlier this season, he went 27-for-40 for a season-high 345 yards with two touchdowns and no interceptions against the Jags. Collins went off for 12 catches for 151 yards (both of which were season-highs) and a touchdown and is primed to deliver once again after hauling in five of nine targets for 91 yards and a score last week. This is a great spot for both guys to perform once again and guide Houston to a much-needed win. Last week, the Jared Goff went 24-for-29 passing for 412 yards and four touchdowns against this defense!
Saints QB Derek Carr Under 29.5 Pass Attempts vs. Rams (-110, FanDuel)
Carr has stayed under this number in six of his eight starts this season and has averaged 26.4 pass attempts per game. With an emphasis on getting Taysom Hill more and more involved in the offense, interim HC Darren Rizzi will likely give Hill opportunities under center again, just like last game, when he threw two passes on eight snaps at QB. The Rams have allowed 29.1 pass attempts per game (6th-fewest) and since the Saints have allowed the most rushing yards per carry in the entire NFL, I expect LA to feed Kyren Williams, which should also keep the clock running. Overall, it should be an uphill battle for Carr to get to 30-plus pass attempts.
Eagles QB Jalen Hurts Under 30.5 Pass Attempts vs. Ravens (-120, DraftKings)
Hurts has not thrown over 30.5 pass attempts in eight straight games and has stayed under this mark in nine of 11 starts this season. Over his last six games, he’s averaged just 21.3 pass attempts per contest, as the team has leaned heavily on Saquon Barkley, who is putting up insane numbers. I don’t expect that game plan to change, especially when Lamar Jackson, Derrick Henry and Baltimore’s star-studded offense will be on the other sidelines, eager to get on the field. Even though the way to beat Baltimore this season has been through the air, I think this is going to be more of a slugfest in the trenches than perhaps expected.
