The end of the season is drawing closer as we enter NFL Week 15. The San Francisco 49ers were all but eliminated from postseason contention as they endured a 12-6 loss to the LA Rams on Thursday, and we could see even more teams have their playoff hopes go up in smoke on Sunday. We have a ton of red-hot matchups this week, including Dolphins vs Texans, Buccaneers vs Chargers, Steelers vs Eagles, Bills vs Lions and a huge Sunday Night Football showdown with Packers vs Seahawks.
I have picked out my best NFL player prop bets from Sunday’s games, which you can find below as I target Brian Robinson and Travis Etienne. You can also find out the Pickswise team’s NFL picks on the side and total for every game in Week 15 and throughout the entire season.
Brian Robinson (WSH) to score a touchdown (-120)
Odds available at DraftKings Sportsbook at time of publishing.
I really like B-Rob to score on Sunday. Robinson has a rushing touchdown in 7 of 10 games he has featured in this season. New Orleans will be without Derek Carr, so Washington will likely start some drives with solid field position. New Orleans has allowed the 3rd-most rushing TDs to running backs in the NFL. I think Washington takes care of business and finds itself in a first-and-goal situation where Robinson takes us home. The hit rate, opponent’s allowance of the prop and the incentive for Washington to keep winning are all big factors. This game will be played in a dome, so Jayden Daniels should have no issue airing it out and getting Washington down the field for many chances at finding the end zone. Let’s go, B-Rob!

Travis Etienne (JAX) Over 10.5 receiving yards (-110)
Odds available at Bet365 at time of publishing.
The Jags did something last week that isn’t being talked about enough. Tank Bigsby really seems to be the primary runner now on this offense, while Etienne is the pass-catching back and will be fresh when he’s out there. We saw Etienne hit this prop in the first quarter last week against Tennessee, but this has the potential to cash at any point on one play. The Jets may not be very good, but the Jags without Trevor Lawrence should be even worse. Jacksonville will likely have to pass throughout this game and this even has late-game dump-off potential, as well.
Etienne has a receptions prop of 2.5, and if he gets 2 or 3 balls then I think we should be sitting pretty. New York would be wise to either double-team Brian Thomas or put Sauce Gardner on him. Evan Engram is dealing with injuries, as well, which is of note. Somebody has to get the ball, and Etienne getting at least 11 yards through the air is not asking a lot.
