For Week 14’s edition of Sunday Night Football, the Chiefs are hosting the Chargers in Kansas City for an AFC West matchup. On DraftKings Sportsbook, the Chiefs are a four-point favorite and this game’s total is set at 43 points.
Below, I have featured my favorite Travis Kelce prop to consider from this contest.
Best Travis Kelce Prop Bets on DraftKings Sportsbook
Travis Kelce O 5.5 receptions (-135)
Ever since the Chiefs lost Rashee Rice (knee) for the season, Kelce has seen elite usage. Rice got injured four snaps into the Chiefs’ Week 4 game and when including this contest, Kelce has led Kansas City with a 29.3% target share and an 87% route rate in its last nine games. During this span, the tight end has ranked fifth in the NFL in targets (89) and Kelce has averaged 7.4 catches per game. Furthermore, the veteran has topped his 5.5-reception line for Week 14 and recorded at least six receptions in seven of these nine games.
With the red-hot Bills winning seven in a row and sitting at 10-2, the 11-2 Chiefs need to keep winning if they want to secure home field throughout the postseason and Sunday night’s matchup vs. the Chargers is a strong spot for Kelce.
Los Angeles has used zone coverage at the third-highest rate this season and Kelce has hauled in 77.5% of his targets against zone this season. Plus, when these AFC West rivals met in Week 4, Kelce caught seven of his nine targets for 89 yards after Rice got hurt early in the game.
Exceeding this 5.5-reception line on DraftKings Sportsbook should be an easy task for Kelce on Sunday and attacking him for this over is a wise move.
