The Raiders travel to Kansas City to face the Chiefs in an AFC West divisional battle on Black Friday. Here are some Brock Bowers prop bets to consider at DraftKings Sportsbook.
Brock Bowers Prop Bets
Here are Bowers’ current prop bet odds at DraftKings Sportsbook: o/u 6.5 receptions and 59.5 receiving yards. Bowers is +245 to score a touchdown, +2200 to score 2+ touchdowns and +1800 to score the first touchdown of the game.
Bowers is having a breakout rookie season for the Raiders. Behind Jayden Daniels and Bo Nix, Bowers has the third-best odds to win Offensive Rookie of the Year at DraftKings Sportsbook. The rookie tight end has been consistently productive since his first NFL game. He has at least 40 receiving yards in nine out of 11 games this season and 70+ receiving yards in five out of 11 games this season. Bowers has also started to find the end zone more regularly with two touchdowns in his past three games.
Aidan O’Connell will be the starting quarterback for the Raiders after Gardner Minshew’s injury. O’Connell started two of the four games he’s played this season and connected well with Bowers. Bowers had eight catches for 97 yards and a touchdown against Denver and nine catches for 71 yards against Pittsburgh with O’Connell under center. Both Pittsburgh and Denver rank in the top five in defensive EPA/dropback. The Chiefs rank 18th in that same metric and 23rd in dropback success rate.
O’Connell and Bowers should recreate their great connection again here. Bowers exploded against two of the league’s elite passing defenses, so he should have an easier time against Kansas City. There is also a good game-script path for Bowers to have a strong performance. Las Vegas is likely to be trailing, forcing the team to throw to keep up with the Chiefs. My favorite bet on Bowers in this game is for him to score a touchdown at odds of +245. Bowers has a favorable matchup, a good connection with O’Connell and has scored in two of his past three games, so these are great odds to get Bowers into the end zone.
Pick: Brock Bowers Anytime Touchdown +235
