Choosing the best player props from Sunday Night Football

Travis Kelce under 54.5 yards (-114)

While the Chiefs are still in the hunt for Travis Kelce, he still lacks significant range.

Kelce has averaged 10.6 yards per game in KC’s last five contests, but that translates to just 60.4 yards per game in those.

Still above this mark, what’s the problem? Things were only going to get worse from here. Coincidentally, Kelce has played four of the top 10 tight ends in yards per game allowed over the past five weeks. The Chargers rank 20th in this regard (45.5).

Our Week 14 NFL DFS predictions only have Kelce projecting 53.2 average yards in this matchup, meaning we’d put this closer to -137.

Patrick Mahomes throws an interception (-114)

Although Cris Collinsworth will be ready to come to his defense, Patrick Mahomes will likely throw an interception on Sunday.

Mahomes has thrown a pick in 8 of 12 games this season, but the market may be underestimating his propensity for turnovers if he has had to play a similar series of exhibition games as Kelce recently. He also played four straight games with a turnover, according to Pro Football Focus, so it was more of a case of “dodging the bullet” than “flawless football.”

Los Angeles is the Fire’s sixth-ranked scheduled pass defense, so we no longer play the Carolina Panthers and Las Vegas Raiders. One of the reasons they rank so high is because of 13 interceptions this season, which ranks fourth in the NFL.

FanDuel Research projects Mahomes to average 0.69 interceptions in this matchup. This is a low point in recent soft matchups, when in reality Mahomes is still putting the ball in danger.

Will Dissly over 35.5 receiving yards (-114)

To all members of the Dissly Division, our time has come.

Will Dissly had a few big games for the Seattle Seahawks, but he’s been getting a full shot at tight end lately with the Bolts. Over the last five weeks, Dissly has completed 58.7% of LA’s routes and scored 4.0 goals per game. That’s a modest 14.6% of the team’s looks if they haven’t had to be extremely pass-heavy in recent weeks.

His matchup is almost as good as it gets – especially since Ladd McConkey (knee) is clearly not 100% after another mid-game exit last week. Kansas City allows the third-most targets, most receiving yards and most yards per route run (2.12) to the tight end position.

The Chiefs are also nF’s fifth-ranked Rush D, so I expect Justin Herbert to be forced to sling the pill a bit in this game.

Dissly’s 11.1 yards per reception in this final stretch is quite high as he is usually open to design looks. I’d rather just take that line that he could knock out with three receptions than the over of his receptions line (3.5) at -146.
