The Broncos are visiting the Chiefs on Christmas Day. On DraftKings Sportsbook, Denver is favored by 13.5 points, and this game carries a total of O/U 36.5 points.
Below, I have featured my favorite RJ Harvey prop to consider from this contest.
Best RJ Harvey Prop Bets on DraftKings Sportsbook
RJ Harvey O 16.5 Receiving Yards (-110)
Harvey is on the heels of his best receiving performance of his career. The rookie hauled in four of his five targets for 71 yards vs. the Jaguars last Sunday. Ever since J.K. Dobbins (knee) was placed on Injured Reserve, Harvey has handled a strong role in the passing game. With Dobbins sidelined for the past five games, Harvey is running a route on 46% of his team’s dropbacks, and he is seeing a target on 19% of his routes.
In all but one of these five games, Harvey has caught at least three passes and finished with at least 20 receiving yards. The second-round pick from this past NFL draft now faces a Chiefs’ defense that is allowing the seventh-highest completion percentage to running backs this season (82.2%).
Kansas City was eliminated from the playoffs two weeks ago, and in its first game after being eliminated, the Chiefs allowed a bad Titans’ offense to score 26 points last Sunday. This season, Tennessee ranks third-to-last in points per game at 16.7. We shouldn’t fear Kansas City’s defense at this point in the season, and 16.5 receiving yards is too low a line for Harvey in this spot.
