The Eagles face the Commanders in a massive divisional matchup on Thursday Night Football in Week 11. Here are some Jalen Hurts prop bets to consider at DraftKings Sportsbook.
Jalen Hurts Prop Bets
Here are Jalen Hurts’ current prop bet odds at DraftKings Sportsbook: o/u 223.5 passing yards, o/u 1.5 passing touchdowns, and o/u 42.5 rushing yards. Hurts is -105 to score a touchdown, +600 to score 2+ touchdowns, and +600 to score the first touchdown of the game.
Jalen Hurts isn’t jumping off the page statistically as one of the best quarterbacks in the NFL this season but he has the Eagles in first place in the NFC East. The addition of Saquon Barkley has allowed this Eagles offense to play much more complementary football and has led to them winning a lot of games. This is a massive game for the Eagles as they host the Commanders. The Eagles hold just a 0.5-game lead over them in the NFC East. This win would go a long way in their division title aspirations and with their future playoff seeding.
In important games like this, Jalen Hurts is much more likely to use his legs. In recent weeks, Hurts has already been doing a ton of damage with his legs. It’s not just the tush push but also zone reads with Barkley and scrambles that have made Hurts so dangerous. In the past two games, he has had two of his three highest rushing yards totals of the season. In his past four games, he has combined for an incredible eight rushing touchdowns.
Hurts is averaging over a touchdown per game on the ground this season after rushing for 15 touchdowns last season. At odds of -105, there is still a lot of value on Hurts to score a touchdown the way he has been playing recently. If the Eagles get inside the two or three-yard line they will use the tush push to get Hurts into the end zone. There is also the variable of him scrambling for a touchdown inside the red zone. The Commanders’ defense is 27th in EPA/rush and 25th in rushing success rate. The Eagles should expose them on the ground and Hurts will find the end zone at least once.
Pick: Jalen Hurts Anytime Touchdown (-105)
