Monday Night Football in Week 2 features a doubleheader. The first of two games is between the Texans and Buccaneers.
Tampa Bay is seeking its second win of the season, while Houston is attempting to bounce back after its Week 1 loss.
There are a plethora of ways to get involved in the action on DraftKings Sportsbook, including player props for players such as Nick Chubb. The Texans’ running back is the primary rusher on the team heading into this contest.
Here are my top Chubb prop bets on DraftKings Sportsbook.
Best Nick Chubb Prop Bets on DraftKings Sportsbook
Chubb made his Houston debut last week after seven seasons with the Browns. He didn’t have a large workload, but it was efficient. He had 13 carries for 60 yards, good for a 4.6 yards per carry average.
The veteran back has had better outings, but this was a solid debut nonetheless. He’ll have better fantasy football performances when he scores touchdowns, but his value is limited because he’s not much of a pass-catcher.
Chubb did not catch his only target in Week 1, and he’s unlikely to get many more looks in the the upcoming games. Dare Ogunbowale will handle more of the pass-catching responsibilities out of the backfield, limiting Chubb’s time on the field.
Chubb has competition in the backfield, even if he is the lead rusher. Additionally, I like this game to feature more passing. Although the 42.5 total is relatively low, Baker Mayfield and C.J. Stroud should throw the ball often in tonight’s matchup, taking away some carries from Chubb.
