Best NFL WR Prop Bets for Week 3
Kansas City Chiefs WR Rashee Rice 50+ Receiving Yards (-109)
Rice bounced back from a quiet opener with four catches for 83 yards against the Indianapolis Colts. He remains one of Patrick Mahomes’ primary targets and averaged 71.4 receiving yards per game last season. Rice’s ability to turn short throws into bigger gains makes him especially dangerous when Kansas City works underneath. Miami’s coverage should provide opportunities for quick completions, giving Rice plenty of chances to stay involved and build on his strong Week 2 performance.
Los Angeles Chargers Ladd McConkey 60+ Receiving Yards (-110)
McConkey is healthy after fully participating in practice this week and should remain a key part of the Chargers’ passing game. He is averaging 14.6 yards per catch and already produced an 82-yard game this season. The Buffalo Bills have allowed 9.16 yards per target to opposing wide receivers through two weeks. With Los Angeles entering as an underdog, Justin Herbert could be throwing frequently, creating plenty of opportunities for McConkey.
Seattle Seahawks WR Jaxon Smith-Njigba 120+ Receiving Yards (+204)
Smith-Njigba has opened the season with 277 receiving yards and four touchdowns through two games. He now gets a Washington Commanders secondary that allowed CeeDee Lamb to pile up 153 yards and two scores last week. Smith-Njigba also torched the Commanders for 129 yards in their meeting late last season. With Seattle consistently feeding its top receiver and Washington struggling to contain opposing passing attacks, JSN is positioned for another big afternoon.
