NFL Week 2 Prop Bet Betting Guide: 10 Must-Play Player Props Across the Slate

The best part of Week 1 was not the Chiefs losing, Buffalo’s incredible comeback vs. the Ravens, or J.J. McCarthy and the Vikings offense finally figuring it out in the fourth quarter. No, the best part was this — a solid slate of games in Week 2 from which we came up with our 10 Best Player Props list.

If that sounds like something you’d be interested in, well — you’re in luck. Here’s our 10 Best Player Props list for Week 2 of the 2025-26 NFL season:

Josh Allen, UNDER 235.5 Passing Yards at -110 (bet365)

I know what you’re thinking, and the answer is, “Yes, I did see him throw for almost 400 yards last week.” However, 251 of them came in that incredible fourth quarter. Last season, he only had 215 and 182 yards passing against the Jets defense.

Aaron Rodgers had 244 last week, but the Steelers were down 26-17 in the fourth quarter.

Derrick Henry, OVER 94.5 Rushing Yards at -113 (DraftKings)

The Browns do have a solid defense. They held Henry to 73 yards in Cleveland last season, but he ran for 138 vs. the Browns in Baltimore. With Joe Flacco throwing for almost 300 yards last week, the Ravens may run Henry more this week to keep Flacco off the field.

Lamar Jackson, OVER 42.5 Rushing Yards at -110 (bet365)

He had 70 yards on six carries last week and has averaged 57.5 yards rushing per game against the Browns in his career (13 games). He has gone OVER this TOTAL in ten of those 13 games.

J.K. Dobbins, OVER 46.5 Rushing Yards at -115 (BetMGM)

The Indianapolis defense was tough last week, but it wasn’t hard to look good against Miami’s dismal offense. Denver’s offense is in much better shape, and it may even run a little more this week to help Bo Nix out. Dobbins will not blow this TOTAL out of the water, but he’ll go OVER it.

Daniel Jones, UNDER 204.5 Passing Yards at -114 (FanDuel)

Jones looked fantastic last week against the Dolphins, going 22-29 for 272 yards and a touchdown. But let’s not crown him the next great reclamation project just yet. His career average is 209.2 yards per game. It is not going to be nearly as easy to throw on Denver.

CeeDee Lamb, OVER 77.5 Receiving Yards at -113 (DraftKings)

Lamb was targeted 13 times by Dak Prescott last week, catching seven for 110 yards vs. a solid Eagles secondary, AND he had a couple of bad drops. But Prescott is not going to hesitate to go back to his No.1 against a suspect Giants secondary.

J.J. McCarthy, UNDER 220.5 Passing Yards at -115 (BetMGM)

Yes, McCarthy was fantastic and had more than a bit of luck on his side in the fourth quarter vs. the Bears last week. That doesn’t mean he’ll be awesome for the entire game this week against the Falcons. Atlanta’s pass defense is not strong, but I’m not ready to drink the Kool-Aid.

Breece Hall, OVER 55.5 Rushing Yards at -115 (BetMGM)

Hall had 19 carries for 107 yards last week vs. the Steelers. Last season, he ran for 113 vs. the Bills early in the year and 45 late. Buffalo gave up 8.2 yards per carry last week. The Jets' run game is not as good as Baltimore’s, but he’ll see the ball enough to get OVER this TOTAL.

Drake Maye, OVER 30.5 Passing Attempts at -105 (BetMGM)

He threw 46 passes last week, a number that was probably inflated because they couldn’t run the ball. But they should have better luck vs. Miami running the ball this week. Last season, Maye averaged 26 attempts per game, but will likely be closer to the low 30s this week.

Justin Herbert, OVER 247.5 Passing Yards at -110 (bet365)

The Raiders had a horrible secondary last season. With the personnel changes and a new head coach in Pete Carroll, it will probably improve. But as long as Harbaugh lets Herbert sling the ball around like he did vs. the Chiefs last week, he’ll go OVER this TOTAL.
