For Week 11’s Monday Night Football Matchup, the Texans visit the Cowboys. On DraftKings Sportsbook, Houston is a seven-point favorite and this game’s total is set at 41.5 points.

Below, I have featured my favorite Joe Mixon prop to consider from this contest.

Best Joe Mixon Prop Bets on DraftKings Sportsbook

Joe Mixon O 107.5 rushing + receiving yards (-115)

In this prime matchup vs. the Cowboys, Mixon should exceed this scrimmage yards line. Dallas has been one of the most vulnerable defenses in the league this season, giving up the second-most points (28.8), second-most yards per pass (7.8) and ninth-most yards per rush (4.7). The Texans’ implied team total on the DraftKings Sportsbook is set at 24.5 points and as noted above, they are favored by seven points.

This sets up perfectly for Mixon to put up a huge stat line with his true workhorse role. The veteran leads all running backs with 21.6 carries per game and he has seen a target on 22% of his routes, while running a route on 42% of C.J. Stroud dropbacks. Mixon is averaging 4.3 yards per carry and a career-high 9.9 yards per reception. From scrimmage, the 28-year-old is averaging 116.3 yards per game.

Mixon should see a minimum of 25 touches with the Texans as big favorites and he is a compelling bet to surpass this 107.5-yard line that is simply too low for his upside Monday.
