Top 10 NFL Player Props for Week 12: Caleb Williams, Jalen Hurts, Travis Kelce & More

We are getting to the make-or-break point for several teams in the NFL.

Either their superstars step up, the team wins games, and they stay in the playoff hunt or they don’t. It certainly makes this week a great time to bet on NFL player props if you know which way teams and players are trending in a positive direction.

We kept that in mind this week when examining the schedule for the ten best NFL player props.

Breece Hall, UNDER 66.5 Rushing Yards at -111 (DraftKings)

If the Jets were playing the Ravens in the first month of the season — not that long ago, but Baltimore couldn’t stop the run until leaves began falling — the OVER would be the way to go here. But the Ravens D has since gotten its act together. Since the Week 7 bye, one ballcarrier has gone OVER this TOTAL vs. the Ravens and not by much (Dolphins RB De’Von Achane, 67 yards).

Kenneth Walker, OVER 59.5 Rushing Yards at -110 (BetMGM)

Once Sam Darnold and the passing game build a lead against a dreadful Titans team, the offense will become run-heavy giving Walker the additional carries he may need to go OVER this mark despite sharing time in the backfield with Zach Charbonnet. It doesn't hurt that coach Mike Macdonald said this week Walker had separated himself of late and earned more "opportunities."

Jalen Hurts, Anytime Touchdown/Anytime First Half TD -115/+220 (bet365)
I expect Jalen Hurts to get the ball at least once every time the Eagles get in the redzone. Against this Dallas defense, that should be early and often. He has scored rushing touchdowns in five of 10 games, including vs. the Cowboys in the season-opener.

Matthew Stafford, OVER 255.5 Passing Yards at -110 (bet365)
Stafford went OVER this TOTAL in two of his last three games but missed it in three of his last five (all wins). He only had 130 last week vs. the Seahawks but will benefit from playing a Buccaneers defense ranked No. 27 in passing yards allowed.

Puka Nacua, OVER 7.5 Receptions at -105
It has been a little quieter for Nacua since coming back from his injury, but he had seven catches in two of this last three games. Someone will have to benefit from Stafford taking advantage of a weak Buccaneers secondary and Nacua is the most likely candidate.

Jacoby Brissett, OVER 247.5 Passing Yards at -110 (bet365)
I can’t see a reason why this TOTAL is set under 250. Brissett is coming off a 400+ yard game against the 49ers and hasn’t gone for less than 258 in his five starts for the Cardinals. Jacksonville looked great against the Chargers last week but ranks 26th in passing yards allowed per game (236.9).

Travis Kelce, OVER 51.5 Receiving Yards at -113 (DraftKings)
Kelce has been reliable over the last six weeks with 54+ yards a game (60+ in five of them). The Colts have been somewhat vulnerable against the pass in recent weeks, so Mahomes will undoubtedly look for his favorite target early and often in a game the Chiefs need to win more than the Colts.

Jonathan Taylor, UNDER 91.5 Rushing Yards at -113 (DraftKings)
In 10 games, only one ball carrier has gone OVER this mark vs. the Chiefs (James Cook). Taylor could easily be the second, but the Chiefs defense has been solid against the run and will likely try to take it away, forcing the Colts to lean on Daniel Jones to get the win.

Drake Maye, OVER 251.5 Passing Yards at -114 (FanDuel)
Maye has been on fire, going OVER this mark in his last four games and in six of his last seven. The Bengals pass defense is second to last in the league with 257.3 yards per game allowed. With how well Maye is seeing the field and using all of his weapons, he should easily go OVER this TOTAL.

Caleb Willliams, OVER 219.5 Passing Yards at -115 (BetMGM)
Why on Earth is this TOTAL so low? The Steelers pass defense is ranked last in the league against the past. Joe Flacco last week and Justin Fields are the only QBs not to pass for more against the Steelers; four threw for 300+. Williams missed it last week, but went OVER in the previous three.
