The Eagles are visiting the Titans on Sunday for a Week 2 matchup. On DraftKings Sportsbook, Philadelphia is favored by seven points, and this game carries a total of O/U 39.5 points.
Below, I break down my favorite DeVonta Smith prop bet for Sunday’s matchup, focusing on his receiving yards line against the Titans.
DeVonta Smith Receiving Yards Prop Bet vs. Titans
DeVonta Smith O 59.5 Receiving Yards (-111)
This line is just too low for Smith facing the Titans. Tennessee’s defense has been dreadful over the last two seasons, allowing the fifth-most yards per play (5.8). The Titans are giving up the fourth-most yards to receivers over this span (2,153), and in Week 1, Garrett Wilson and Adonai Mitchell exposed Tennessee for 79 and 60 yards, respectively.
While Smith finished with just 53 yards in the Eagles’ season opener last Sunday vs. the Commanders, he still handled a team-high 24% target share with A.J. Brown now with the Patriots. This is the fifth game Smith has played without Brown over the last three seasons, and Smith has posted at least 76 yards in three of these contests.
In these tilts, Smith is seeing a target on 28% of his routes –– including seven targets over 20 yards –– and he is averaging 2.6 YPPR. Smith’s role is elite without Brown, and Smith should have a big performance vs. the Titans after his modest performance in Week 1.
