The Denver Broncos are in Kansas City to play the Chiefs today at 8:15 p.m. ET. Denver is 12-3 and currently holds the No. 1 seed in the AFC, while Kansas City is 6-9 and has suffered four consecutive defeats.
This is the second straight game that the Chiefs will be without their star QB, Patrick Mahomes, as he suffered a season-ending injury in their Week 15 matchup against the Los Angeles Chargers on December 14. This season, Cortland Sutton has been Bo Nix’s top option, but Troy Franklin has also been a valuable part of the Broncos’ offense.
On DraftKings Sportsbook, the Broncos are a -13.5-point favorite, with the game’s over/under set at 37.5. Here is my favorite Troy Franklin prop bet for tonight’s game against the Chiefs.
