NFL Sunday Prop Bets: Bowers, Gordon, Douglas and Mason

Brock Bowers Leads a Sunday Slate of Player Prop Picks

The Sunday morning crunch begins with another trip to the Brock Bowers prop market. His receiving line is set at 70.5 yards, and he remains the focal point of the Las Vegas Raiders’ offense. While a touchdown bet is also available, Michael Mayer’s role makes that market more complicated.

Bowers continues to create mismatches with his route-running, field awareness, and ability to adjust. With the Raiders at home and the Rams struggling, the over on his receiving yards remains an appealing play.

Ollie Gordon is another featured pick against the Jets. His rushing line moved from 50.5 to 57.5 yards by Sunday morning, but the approach is to ladder the bet through several alternate totals. That means placing larger wagers around 50, 60, and possibly 70 yards, followed by smaller wagers at 80, 90, and 100 yards as the potential returns increase.

Caleb Douglas also offers a way to target the same game. Before his injury, he had become a go-to option for Malik Willis. His receptions line is only 2.5, and he should receive his share of targets as a reliable safety blanket. Pairing the Douglas receptions over with Gordon’s rushing over could make sense as an SGP.

Jordan Mason’s return provides the final player prop. His injury involved his thumb rather than an ankle, foot, or knee, leaving him in position to contribute immediately. His rushing line is 49.5 yards against a Colts defense that has struggled against the run.

Aaron Jones has handled significant volume during the opening weeks, but that pace may need to slow. Mason should have an opportunity to clear 49.5 yards and potentially reach well into the 50s or higher, depending on his workload.

The featured picks are Brock Bowers over 70.5 receiving yards, Ollie Gordon over his rushing total with a possible ladder, Caleb Douglas over 2.5 receptions, and Jordan Mason over 49.5 rushing yards.

The discussion closed with some concern about covering 6.5 points. The Colts defense has struggled, while the Vikings defense has played well so far, but Kyler Murray remains a concern at quarterback. There is also uncertainty about whether JJ McCarthy could ultimately prove to be the better option.
