Week 16 begins in Seattle on Thursday as the Rams face the Seahawks in an NFC West matchup.
This game has huge implications not only for the division but also for the NFC standings overall. Both teams enter this game with an 11-3 record, and the winner will have the inside track to the division crown and #1 overall seed.
Both teams have -110 moneyline odds going into this evenly matched game. The points total is set at O/U 44.5 on DraftKings Sportsbook.
Below is my favorite Smith-Njigba prop bet on DraftKings Sportsbook for Thursday’s game.
Best Jaxon Smith-Njigba Prop Bet on DraftKings Sportsbook
Jaxon Smith-Njigba leads the NFL in receiving yards through 15 weeks by 174 yards over Puka Nacua. The two best wideouts in the league will be going back and forth in this one and it should be fun to watch.
JSN dominates in almost every matchup, and I’m banking on him to do the same on Thursday. He’s gone over this total in 10 of 14 games so far this season, while averaging just over 110 receiving yards per game.
The Rams have been a slightly below-average passing defense so far this season, ranking 19th in the NFL while allowing 219.7 yards per game through the air. The first time these teams matched up this season, JSN put on a clinic as he caught nine of 12 targets for 105 yards.
A season ago, he had two very different performances against L.A. In the first one, he caught seven of 13 targets for 180 yards and two scores. In the second one, he caught four of five targets for only nine yards. On Thursday, I would definitely not expect a stat line similar to the latter based on the form that he has been in recently.
Expect the former Ohio State Buckeye to go over this total for the 11th time this season.
Best Bet: Jaxon Smith-Njigba Over 93.5 Receiving Yards (-112)
