Week 15 Sunday Night Football Touchdown Scorer Prop Bets
Odds courtesy of DraftKings Sportsbook.
Anytime TD Scorer: Lamar Jackson (+120)
Jackson was a rushing touchdown machine over the first three seasons of his career, totaling five or more every year. However, he had only five total over the 2021 and 2022 seasons because of injuries. Thankfully, the superstar quarterback is back to his old ways, totaling five rushing touchdowns this year. While Gus Edwards leads the team in rushing touchdowns, he hasn't found the end zone since Week 11. Meanwhile, Jackson has led the team in rushing attempts (10.3 per game) since Mark Andrews got hurt.
Meanwhile, the Jaguars have had a solid rushing defense this season. However, Jacksonville has had trouble with opposing rushing attacks lately. They have given up four rushing scores over the first two weeks, the second-most in the NFL. After allowing only a 2.9% rushing touchdown rate over the first 11 games, the Jaguars have surrendered a 7% touchdown rate over the past two weeks. More importantly, they have allowed the seventh-most rushing touchdowns by quarterbacks in 2023 (four).
Anytime TD Scorer: Calvin Ridley (+195)
Unfortunately, Ridley's first year in Jacksonville hasn't gone as many had hoped. However, he leads the team in receiving touchdowns (five) and is second to Travis Etienne in offensive scores. Yet, Ridley has been in a slump the past two weeks despite losing Kirk to a groin injury. After totaling three receiving touchdowns in Week 11 and 12, the veteran wide receiver has zero touchdowns over the past two weeks despite seeing 21 targets.
More importantly, Ridley has seen the targets needed to be a touchdown machine. He just hasn't been able to convert on those targets. The veteran wide receiver has 15 end zone targets this season, the second-most in the NFL, and nine more than anyone else on the team. Furthermore, Ridley had a team-high three end zone targets the past two weeks. Meanwhile, the Ravens have the ninth-highest target rate to outside wide receivers (44.7%) and the most end zone targets (37) this year (per Fantasy Points Data).
