Top 10 Player Props For NFL Week 13

Sat Nov 30 3:48am ET
Field Level Media

This time of year can be difficult for bettors. It is not unusual for a struggling NFL team to play well for a day and keep it close against a better team. But if taking such a bet does not sound like a good idea, give one (or more) of the hundreds of player props a try.

With three games on Thanksgiving and another on Black Friday, there are fewer games than usual. However, there are still hundreds of NFL player props available. To help you decide which to bet on, here is our top 10 list of player props for Sunday's Week 13 slate.

NFL Week 13: Player Props

Pittsburgh Steelers vs. Cincinnati Bengals

Pat Freiermuth, four-plus receptions at +194 (FanDuel)

Freiermuth had four last week in the loss to the Browns and at least that many in each of the first four games of the season. But against a passing team like the Bengals, the Steelers will likely need every weapon in their arsenal to keep up with the Cincinnati passing game. The Bengals' defense has taken it relatively easy on tight ends this year. So, whether the Steelers are trying to catch up or control the ball, there is a good chance Freiermuth plays a bigger part than usual and makes four-plus receptions.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers vs. Carolina Panthers

Bryce Young, O/U 195.5 at -114/-114 (FanDuel)

Those of us who have not paid much attention to the Carolina Panthers this season might be surprised to hear that Bryce Young has been playing pretty well since returning to the starting lineup. He's thrown for 200-plus yards in two of his past four games and is completing 60-plus percent of his passes. Tampa Bay has a solid run defense. Since the Bucs will probably throw early and often, the Panthers will need Young to throw the ball to catch up and/or be competitive. With how well Young is playing right now, we'll take the OVER.

Indianapolis Colts vs. New England Patriots

Drake Maye, O/U 220.5 passing yards at -115/-115 (DraftKings)

Maye threw for more than 220 passing yards against the Rams and Dolphins, two solid defenses, in his past two games. The Colts' defense ranks No. 27 in pass defense and has seen opponents average 34 pass attempts and 231.7 yards per game over the past three. Maye has averaged right around 34 attempts and 230 yards over his past three. Take the OVER.

Los Angeles Rams vs. New Orleans Saints

Kyren Williams, O/U 19.5 rushing attempts at -102/-128 (FanDuel)

O/U 82.5 rushing yards at -113/-113 (FanDuel)

O/U 11.5 receiving yards (DraftKings)

Williams had 16, 15, and 15 carries the past three weeks but had 20-plus in the previous four and has averaged 18.8 per game this season. But he'll be facing a New Orleans Saints team that has seen opponents run the ball 26.7 times per game and 27.8 at home. The Rams tend to run a little less on the road, but they are fighting to remain in the playoff conversation (just like the Saints). To that end, they'll put the ball in the hands of their playmaker rather than spread the touches among multiple backs.

New Orleans has been giving up 134.2 yards per game on the ground but has been especially weak against the run at home (163.2 yards per game). Wiliams has gone for over 82.5 yards in three of the five games in which he had 20-plus carries.

But against a Saints team giving up 160-plus at home, take the OVER.

Williams has not been targeted in the passing game the past two weeks (three total). In the eight games where he had at least one catch, he finished with under 11.5 yards in three. He is not a priority in the passing game. Take the UNDER.

Houston Texans vs. Jacksonville Jaguars

C.J. Stroud, O/U 259.5 passing yards at -115/-115 (BetMGM)

Tank Dell, O/U 51.5 receiving yards at -113/-113 (FanDuel)

O/U 4.5 receptions at +130/-170 (FanDuel)

Nico Collins, O/U longest reception 26.5 yards at -130/+100 (BetMGM)

This should be the ‘get-right' game C.J. Stroud and the Texans have needed for weeks. Jacksonville has overtaken the Ravens as the worst pass defense in the NFL. Stroud has gone over 259.5 passing yards just once in Houston's past seven games.

But opponents are averaging 278.3 yards per game this season and close to 300 over the past three games. If Stroud can't go off against this team with the talent at his disposal ...

Tank Dell has gone over 51.5 yards in both games with Nico Collins back in the lineup. But against a Jacksonville defense that has allowed an average of 13.5 receptions for 183.5 yards, Dell should see a few more targets.

Collins will be the primary receiver, of course, but Dell could still see balls thrown his way and that should be enough for him to go OVER both marks. As for Collins, he has had a reception of 28-plus yards in every game but one. Jacksonville has given up 52 pass plays of 20-plus yards and nine of 40-plus.

Take the OVER.

Waiver Wire Pickups: Week 13

Player Notes
Mike White Nov 30 3:30pm CT
Mike White

According to NFL Media's Ian Rapoport, the Buffalo Bills elevated quarterback Mike White from the practice squad to the main roster heading into Sunday night's meeting with the 49ers. Josh Allen is healthy. However, with heavy snow expected in Buffalo, the team is likely playing it safe by bolstering depth at the quarterback spot. Still, White likely won't get on the field, considering Mitchell Trubisky is next in line on the depth chart in the event Allen is pulled from the game.

Austin Ekeler Nov 30 3:20pm CT
Austin Ekeler

Washington Commanders running back Austin Ekeler (concussion) was placed on the Injured Reserve list on Saturday. The veteran has played relatively well this season, amassing 355 yards and four touchdowns off 74 carries, adding 33 catches for 346 yards. While he hasn't been as productive as when he was with the Chargers, his absence is an issue for the Commanders, especially with Brian Robinson Jr. banged up throughout the 2024-25 campaign. Without Ekeler, Robinson should see more involvement in the offense on Sunday versus the Titans and beyond. Jeremy McNichols will also have a chance to get more involved, although his presence on fantasy rosters should be only for insurance purposes, at least until he proves he has fantasy value.

From RotoBaller

Calvin Austin III Nov 30 3:10pm CT
Calvin Austin III

Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Calvin Austin III has only 20 catches for 354 yards and three touchdowns this season. However, two of those scores have come in the last four games. George Pickens and Pat Freiermuth are still the top receiving options in Pittsburgh. Yet, Austin has some value in the deepest of fantasy leagues against a horrendous Bengals defense on Sunday. Of course, he's a very risky fantasy option, and his success from a production standpoint is contingent on whether he finds the end zone.

From RotoBaller

J.K. Dobbins Nov 30 3:10pm CT
J.K. Dobbins

Los Angeles Chargers running back J.K. Dobbins (knee) was placed on the Injured Reserve list on Saturday. The 25-year-old has played well in his first season in Los Angeles, totaling 766 yards and eight touchdowns off 158 carries, adding 28 catches for 134 yards. Even better, he had stayed healthy, which was different from his time with the Baltimore Ravens. Unfortunately, Dobbins finds himself back in familiar territory and will get put back on the shelf because of an MCL sprain. Without him, Gus Edwards, who had a touchdown on Monday night against the Ravens, his former team, is at least a flex option for Sunday's matchup with the Falcons, especially since Hassan Haskins may not get much work.

From RotoBaller

Julius Chestnut Nov 30 3:00pm CT
Julius Chestnut

Tennessee Titans running back Julius Chestnut has been sparingly involved throughout the 2024-25 campaign. With Tyjae Spears (concussion) sidelined for the Week 12 win over the Houston Texans, Chestnut had a chance to get more involved. However, that didn't happen, with the 24-year-old amassing only one carry for three yards and adding one catch for two yards. Spears is still listed as questionable for the Week 13 encounter with the Washington Commanders, although he's moving in the right direction. But even if Spears doesn't suit up, Chestnut shouldn't be anywhere near a starting fantasy lineup.

From RotoBaller

Tyler Boyd Nov 30 2:00pm CT
Tyler Boyd

Tennessee Titans wide receiver Tyler Boyd should be viewed as a desperation flex option in deeper 3WR formats in Week 13 when he faces the Washington Commanders. Last weekend, the veteran wideout enjoyed his best game of the season, catching all six of his targets for a season-high 55 yards. However, during Weeks 6 through 11, Boyd averaged a mere 4.1 PPR points and saw just 2.8 targets per game during this stretch. With Calvin Ridley and Nick Westbrook-Ikhine operating as the No.1 and 2 receivers, Boyd will have trouble finding consistent targets. However, given his impressive showing last weekend, fantasy managers in 14+ team 3WR formats could consider using Boyd as a desperation flex option facing the Commanders, who have allowed the 16th-most PPR points this season to opposing wideouts.

From RotoBaller

Chigoziem Okonkwo Nov 30 1:50pm CT
Chigoziem Okonkwo

Tennessee Titans tight end Chig Okonkwo should be viewed as a risky TE2 heading into a Week 13 matchup against the Washington Commanders. Despite operating as the clear No.1 tight end in Tennessee this season, Okonkwo has struggled to produce consistent fantasy results. Last weekend, he caught his lone target for an impressive 70 yards. However, before this game, he only tallied at least 50 receiving yards on one other occasion this season. Since Week 7, the 25-year-old has seen an average of just 3.2 targets per game, making him a risky fantasy asset. Facing the Washington Commanders who have allowed the 11th-fewest PPR points to opposing tight ends this season, Okonkwo should be viewed as a low-end TE2 with risk.

From RotoBaller

Davis Allen Nov 30 1:40pm CT
Davis Allen

Los Angeles Rams tight end Davis Allen should not be started in any formats this weekend when he faces the New Orleans Saints. Since Week 9, Allen has surpassed the former No.1 tight end, Colby Parkinson, on the depth chart. However, while Allen has begun to see the majority of snap opportunities, he has not been able to produce consistently from a fantasy perspective. During this span, Allen caught just six passes and averaged a mere 2.5 PPR points per game. In addition, Allen has not caught a pass in each of his past two games and only saw one target during this span. With Puka Nacua, Cooper Kupp, Demarcus Robinson, and Kyren Williams seeing most of the opportunities, Allen may only see a handful of targets each week. Facing a New Orleans defense that has allowed the 15th-fewest PPR points to opposing tight ends, Allen should not be started in any formats.

From RotoBaller

Demarcus Robinson Nov 30 1:30pm CT
Demarcus Robinson

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Demarcus Robinson remains a risky flex option for three-WR formats heading into a Week 13 tilt against the New Orleans Saints. After catching just three passes during Weeks 10 and 11, Robinson enjoyed a nice bounce-back against the Philadelphia Eagles last weekend when he scored 9.5 PPR points. Even with Puka Nacua and Cooper Kupp dominating targets, Robinson has found opportunities to succeed, as he has averaged a solid 12.3 PPR points in each game since Week 8. However, he has fallen under double-digit PPR points on three occasions during this span. Facing a weak New Orleans secondary that has allowed the sixth-most PPR points to opposing wideouts this season, Robinson could have a path to a solid fantasy output, even while operating as the No. 3 option on the team. Given his spot on the depth chart, fantasy managers should view him as a risky flex play in deeper three-WR formats.

From RotoBaller

Blake Corum Nov 30 1:20pm CT
Blake Corum

Los Angeles Rams rookie running back Blake Corum remains a top stash candidate but should not be in any starting lineups this weekend when he faces the New Orleans Saints. While Corum has continued to be deployed as the No.2 running back in Los Angeles, Kyren Williams has dominated most of the work, leaving only a handful of carries for Corum each week. Over his past four contests, the Michigan product has averaged just 2.3 attempts per game while tallying 3.7 yards per carry. In addition, he has only logged double-digit snaps once during this stretch. While fantasy managers should continue to stash Corum on their bench as he could be a lottery ticket league winner if Williams were to miss time, he is unplayable in all formats, given his minimal role in the Los Angeles offense.

From RotoBaller

Mekhi Wingo Nov 30 1:10pm CT
Mekhi Wingo

Detroit Lions rookie defensive tackle Mekhi Wingo (knee) will miss the remainder of the season, according to Nolan Bianchi of the Detroit News. The LSU product sustained the knee injury during their victory on Thanksgiving over the Chicago Bears. Mingo operated as a rotational piece on the Detroit defensive line and tallied nine total tackles (one solo) with eight assists in his rookie campaign. The sixth-round pick is set to undergo season-ending surgery and will set his sights on returning in 2025. As a result, fantasy managers in IDP formats should expect Alim McNeill, Levi Onwuzurike, and DJ Reader to see most of the snaps down the stretch.

From RotoBaller

Adonai Mitchell Nov 30 12:30pm CT
Adonai Mitchell

Indianapolis Colts wide receiver Adonai Mitchell has caught just one pass in four of the last five games. In the other contest, the 22-year-old caught six passes for 71 yards and it came in a game in which Michael Pittman Jr. was absent. Pittman is playing Sunday, however, Josh Downs (shoulder) will be absent which should give Mitchell an opportunity to shine again. The 2024 second-round pick can get chunk plays with his speed and has even been used sporadically as a rusher (three carries for 16 yards). Jonathan Taylor hasn't been featured much in the passing game, nor have the tight ends, so most targets should gravitate to the wide receivers. Anthony Richardson will have to remedy his accuracy issues though in order for those targets to translate to receptions, and in a game with a low expected total that could be subject to unfavorable weather conditions, Mitchell only projects as a WR5 this week.

From RotoBaller

Tee Higgins Nov 30 12:00pm CT
Tee Higgins

Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Tee Higgins has spent plenty of time on the shelf throughout the year because of various injuries. However, the 25-year-old has also had some potent fantasy outings. He's coming off his best showing of the 2024-25 campaign, catching nine of his 13 targets for 148 yards and a touchdown in the Sunday Night Football loss to the Chargers ahead of the team's Week 12 bye. Although the Bengals' offense will be challenged by an efficient Steelers' defense, there's no way fantasy managers can justify keeping Higgins out of the lineup in Week 13.

From RotoBaller

Jermaine Burton Nov 30 12:00pm CT
Jermaine Burton

Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Jermaine Burton looked good during the preseason. However, he hasn't done much to benefit fantasy managers during the 2024-25 campaign. The rookie has just one catch in each of his previous three contests leading up to the Bengals' Week 12 bye. Yet, he's starting to earn the trust of Joe Burrow, considering he has 12 targets during that span. Granted, Burton has a long way to go before earning a place in fantasy lineups. But it appears he's moving in the right direction, although fantasy managers should still keep him on the bench for Sunday's meeting with the Pittsburgh Steelers.

From RotoBaller

Chase Brown Nov 30 12:00pm CT
Chase Brown

Cincinnati Bengals running back Chase Brown has had a Pro Bowl-caliber season. He routinely ceded touches to Zack Moss in the beginning of the year. However, with Moss on the shelf for the remainder of the 2024-25 campaign, Brown is now the undisputed top option out of the backfield. With seven touchdowns in Cincinnati's 11 games this season, the 24-year-old needs to be in all fantasy lineups despite a challenging matchup with a potent Steelers' defense on tap.

From RotoBaller

Mike Gesicki Nov 30 12:00pm CT
Mike Gesicki

Cincinnati Bengals tight end Mike Gesicki has played better than most anticipated this season. He's had some efficient fantasy outings. However, the veteran hasn't been consistent by any means and was most recently held without a catch in the Bengals' Week 11 loss to the Los Angeles Chargers. While it's possible he has at least one more productive performance left in the tank before the end of the season, he's hard to trust in the AFC North showdown with the Steelers, considering Tee Higgins and Ja'Marr Chase should remain the preferred receiving options for Joe Burrow.

From RotoBaller

Andrei Iosivas Nov 30 12:00pm CT
Andrei Iosivas

Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Andrei Iosivas began the season by amassing three scores in the first three weeks. As a result, some fantasy managers assumed this would be his breakout year. Unfortunately, the 25-year-old hasn't been a factor since the Bengals' Monday night loss to the Commanders in late September, catching only 10 passes in his previous eight appearances. Granted, he may have another score or two up his sleeve before the end of the 2024-25 campaign. But it will be difficult for Iosivas to get involved with Ja'Marr Chase and Tee Higgins on the field along with the increased involvement of Jermaine Burton. Keep him out of the starting lineup for Sunday's AFC North showdown versus the Steelers.

From RotoBaller

Michael Wilson Nov 30 11:50am CT
Michael Wilson

Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Michael Wilson should be considered a boom-or-bust WR4/flex in fantasy leagues heading into a Week 13 tilt on Sunday on the road against the Minnesota Vikings. Most fantasy managers won't be giving Wilson the time of day after a two-catch, 54-yard performance in the Week 12 loss to the division-rival Seattle Seahawks. The 24-year-old also has only two scores on the season and has gone over five receptions just once in 11 games. Wilson has exceeded 50 receiving yards in a game only three times. He's tied for 78th among all receivers with 6.4 half-PPR points per game. Facing the Vikings on the road is no picnic, but Minnesota's defense has allowed the second-most half-PPR points per game to the position, including 13 TDs allowed, so if Wilson is going to have a big game out of nowhere, this could be the week.

From RotoBaller

Joe Burrow Nov 30 11:50am CT
Joe Burrow

Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow will look to keep his team's postseason hopes alive by earning a win against Pittsburgh in Week 13. Burrow has arguably been the best quarterback in the NFL during the 2024-25 campaign and is currently tied with Lamar Jackson for a league-leading 27 touchdown throws. Without question, the former LSU Tiger isn't the problem for Cincinnati's underwhelming record. Instead, the Bengals' defense has struggled. While Burrow has been more productive versus other teams over the years, he's a must-start for Sunday's meeting with a formidable Steelers' defense.

From RotoBaller

Matt Gay Nov 30 11:50am CT
Matt Gay

Indianapolis Colts kicker Matt Gay has recorded at least two field goals in nine straight games, going 20-for-22 during that time with both misses coming from 50-plus yards out. The 30-year-old is 20-for-20 on extra points as well. Despite his recent stretch of success, Indy will take on the Patriots on the road this week where it will be cold and somewhat windy. Combine that with the ineffectiveness of the Colt offense and a contest that has a low expected total, Gay makes for a dicey fantasy play on Sunday.
