In the blink of an eye, we are into the NFL player props for Week 5, and the injury reports from the franchises are starting to stack up.
- The Baltimore Ravens have really suffered losing Lamar Jackson and half a dozen other starters, as the pre–Super Bowl favourites are now 1-3 and under the cosh just to make the playoffs.
- The tale of NFL week 4 was a poor one all around, with our player props going 0-3 to bring the running total to 5-7 for the year.
Onto NFL Week 5, and we have three young guns!
Mason Taylor: Over 39.5 Receiving Yards (-110) at Bovada
Dallas Cowboys vs N.Y. Jets – Sunday, October 05, 01:00 PM EDT
The New York Jets are badly in need of their first win of the season as they entertain the Dallas Cowboys this Sunday.
Whether they manage that elusive first win or not, there are many reasons and trends in both teams’ performances to expect points in this game.
Noticeably, last week, with Justin Fields back, the relationship he formed with 2025 second-round draft pick Mason Taylor was rekindled for the Jets.
Taylor’s receiving yards were set as low as 22.5 in places and the twenty-one-year-old former LSU tight end flew over with 65 yards. Given that number and the weak Cowboys defense, it is no surprise to see the number go up to 39.5, but that’s still value to bet in this matchup.
Brock Bowers: Over 46.5 receiving yards (-110) at BetOnline
Las Vegas Raiders vs. Indianapolis Colts – Sunday, October 05, 01:00 PM EDT
It is common for athletes in their second professional season to face challenges following a standout rookie year.
In the NFL, this phenomenon is often exacerbated by opposing defenses’ developing strategies during the off-season specifically designed to address and exploit any identified weaknesses.
Consider that, in Weeks 2 and 3, Brock Bowers played through injury but, at the end of last week, was back to full participation in practice. That did not translate to the field last week, but his receiving yards are falling by the game and this week it is worth taking a punt on him.
Last year, he averaged 75 yards a game and began this campaign priced at 79.5. So, the offer of 46.5 receiving yards is the achievable target.
Treveyon Henderson: Over 25.5 Rushing Yards (-108) at Heritage Sports
New England Patriots vs. Buffalo Bills – Sunday, October 05, 08:20 PM EDT
With just under 100 yards in four starts, Treveyon Henderson has had a respectable start to his NFL career at running back. Last week, the rookie running back scored his maiden touchdown for the New England Patriots with a five-yard run.
The Patriots are going to find this week challenging, as they visit the high-flying Buffalo Bills. However, there is evidence that they will be able to score points, and Henderson once again should be busy with carries.
The choice is either rushing yards or another touchdown for Treveyon Henderson, and the most tempting line is the over 25.5 rushing yards.
