Best A.J. Brown Prop Bet on DraftKings Sportsbook

A.J. Brown O 70.5 Receiving Yards (-113)

Brown (ankle) made his anticipated return last Sunday vs. the Jets, but it was a disappointing showing for the receiver, catching just 3-of-10 targets for 27 yards, including four drops.

Brown’s usage, however, was awesome in his first full game with the Patriots. He saw a 28.1% target share on a 94.1% route rate, both of which led the team. Romeo Doubs (shoulder) exited this game after just playing two snaps and was placed on injured reserve after the win.

With Doubs sidelined, Brown is going to continue to be a target hog vs. the Bears. This is a much easier matchup for him after facing the Jets last Sunday. The Bears are giving up the second-most yards per pass this season (7.8), a big difference compared to the Jets, who are allowing the fifth-fewest (5.8). Chicago also ranks 18th in pace while New York ranks 30th.

The Bears have allowed six different receivers to post 73+ yards this season – including three outings over 100 yards – and the Patriots should rely on their passing attack as three-point underdogs for this matchup on DraftKings Sportsbook.

This is a get right spot for Brown and he should redeem himself with big performance after last week’s dud.
