NFL Week 16: Three TD props for Christmas Eve

For Sunday's NFL slate, we're opting for a trio of top receivers in strong spots. All three secondaries have had their issues, and if anyone can capitalize, it's the three leading their team in volume.

Garrett Wilson (+190 Caesars)

We're at a point where we don't really care who the Jets quarterback is. The only thing that really matters here is that the Washington Commanders cannot stop anyone through the air.

They're letting up the most passing yards and yards per pass attempt this season, which has helped to explain why they're seeing the second-most WR touchdowns against them.

Naturally, we turn to the most talented wide receivers on the Jets by a country mile. Wilson has been too quiet this season, plagued by poor QB play. So be it, this is as good of a spot as they come.

DeAndre Hopkins (+185 FanDuel)

Hopkins will have an enviable matchup this weekend against a Seahawks team that ranks favorably for both receptions and touchdowns allowed to wide receivers.

No one is more entrenched in this Tennessee passing attack than Hopkins, with six touchdowns in the eight game with Will Levis at the helm. He should have his chances here to score after taking last week off.

Mike Evans (+150 Caesars)

Evans has a touchdown in 10 of 14 games this year, and with Chris Godwin being a limited participant in practice on Thursday, we might see even more Evans work this weekend.

More Evans work would certainly be nice, considering the Jaguars are allowing the fifth-most touchdowns per game to WRs. Load up the Buccaneers star wide receiver with confidence here.
