MNF Week 5 NFL Player Props: Uncovering the Hidden Value in Chiefs vs Jaguars Matchup
Monday Night Football brings an AFC matchup with plenty of NFL Week 5 player prop value as the Jacksonville Jaguars host the Kansas City Chiefs. Injuries, defensive strengths and game flow all set the stage for intriguing betting angles on both sides of the ball.
With that in mind, here are the best prop bets for Week 5 of Monday Night Football action and where the lines provide an edge today.
Brenton Strange Anytime TD Scorer
Odds: +330 (via Caesars Sportsbook)
Strange has taken another step forward this season and is emerging as one of the most underrated tight ends in the league, but he has yet to find the end zone. He's already earned 23 targets on the year and is a big redzone threat, so him finding a way to score a touchdown tonight is a high possibility.
Bhayshul Tuten o20.5 Rushing Yards
Odds: -112 (via Caesars Sportsbook)
Tuten is averaging 22 yards per game on the ground this season, so simply reaching his average would do the trick. He's eclipsed 21 or more yards in two of four games this season, and is going against a Chiefs defense that has allowed 127 yards per game rushing.
Travis Hunter o27.5 Rushing + Receiving Yards
Odds: -115 (via bet365)
Hunter is a dynamic weapon who can cash on this over with one single catch, but is also a gadget guy who the Jaguars can use as a rusher in unique formations. He hasn't logged a rushing attempt yet this season, but don't be shocked if Jacksonville pulls one out tonight. Hunter averages 29 yards per game receiving, in either case.
Travis Kelce First TD Scorer
Odds: +950 (via BetMGM)
Kelce has only found the end zone once this season, and he's certainly at the tail end of his career, but he's still fully capable and a target Mahomes trusts. If the Chiefs get in the red zone early with a chance to score first, there's no question Kelce is a very real target for that first TD on the night.
Chiefs vs. Jaguars sets up as a game that could be defined by big offensive plays, which makes player props even more fun to bet on. Always compare prices across books before placing your wagers, but these are the player props that carry the most value for Monday Night Football.
