The Panthers are hosting the Lions on Sunday night for a Week 4 matchup. On DraftKings Sportsbook, Detroit is favored by 3.5 points and this game carries a total of 51.5 points.

Let’s dive into the top Tetairoa McMillan prop bet for Sunday’s matchup.


Best Tetairoa McMillan Prop Bet on DraftKings Sportsbook

Tetairoa McMillan O 72.5 Receiving Yards (-112)

With Jalen Coker (quad) “unlikely” to play – per ESPN’s Adam Schefter – McMillan should have a big performance as the Panthers’ unquestioned No. 1 wideout.

After signing a three-year, $35 million contract extension with the Panthers this offseason, Coker has seen a bigger role this season, leading the team with an 18% target share. McMillan isn’t far behind though, at 17.2%, and he has produced 75, 101 and 17 yards in his first three games of the season, despite Coker being active for these tilts.

Now, McMillan should naturally see his target share grow with Coker sidelined Sunday. McMillan is averaging 0.22 targets per route run with Coker off the field the last two seasons and McMillan should see around 10 targets tonight, putting him in a great position to produce.

Detroit ranks 11th in pace and this club’s defense is yielding the sixth-most catches (42) and yards to receivers this season (468). The Panthers rank fourth in PROE and they should continue to rely on their passing game in this contest, as 3.5-point underdogs on DraftKings Sportsbook. This game’s 51.5-point total is also the highest of Week 4. McMillan should be busy in this setting and is an excellent bet to exceed 72.5 yards.
