Malik Nabers Receiving Yards Pick for Giants at Commanders

By: Alex Hunter

The Giants are visiting the Commanders on Sunday for a Week 5 matchup. On DraftKings Sportsbook, Washington is favored by 3.5 points and this game carries a total of 41.5 points.

Let’s dive into the top Malik Nabers prop bet for Sunday’s matchup.

Malik Nabers Best Receiving Yards Prop Bet vs. Commanders

Malik Nabers O 56.5 Receiving Yards (-110)

Nabers has had an up-and-down start to the season as he works his way back after offseason knee surgery, but the receiver looked fully healthy this past Sunday vs. the Cardinals. Nabers hauled in 6-of-7 targets for 112 yards and a touchdown in the 36-24 win for the Giants.

Nabers ran a route on 88% of his team’s dropbacks and he averaged 3.9 YPPR, both of which easily set season highs. Nabers is commanding a target on 26% of his routes this season and if he runs a route on almost all of his team’s dropbacks again Sunday vs. the Commanders, Nabers should flourish.

Of Nabers’ routes, 78% have come out wide this season and Washington is yielding the most catches (46) and fourth-most yards to players who line up outside this season (597). The Giants are also a 3.5-point underdog on DraftKings Sportsbook, which suggests they may have to pass the ball at a high clip.

This is an excellent situation for Nabers and he should clear 56.5 yards with ease, barring an injury.
