It will be a rematch of Super Bowl 57 when the Kansas City Chiefs and Philadelphia Eagles meet again in Super Bowl 59. Their battle for the Lombardi Trophy 2 years ago was a thriller, with Kansas City emerging victorious 38-35. There were 6 different touchdown scorers in that shootout, including Jalen Hurts with 3 on the ground (plus 1 passing TD to AJ Brown). Who will find the end zone this time around? With the Super Bowl set for February 9 at 6:30 pm ET on FOX, it’s time to take a look at my best TD scorer bets.

Super Bowl 59 anytime touchdown scorer pick: Xavier Worthy (+155)
Odds available at Bet365 and FanDuel Sportsbook at time of publishing.
The Bills were victims of their own demise after letting the Chiefs get Xavier Worthy thanks to a draft-day trade between the 2 teams in 2024. We all knew how that was going to turn out, and – sure enough – Worthy played a big role as Kansas City beat Buffalo again in the playoffs. The rookie out of Texas caught 6 of 7 targets (and yes, his especially amazing catch was indeed a catch) for 85 yards and 1 touchdown in the AFC Championship.
That was nothing new for Worthy, either. In the regular season, he scored 6 TDs to go along with 59 receptions on 98 targets for 638 receiving yards. The 21-year-old found the end zone in each of his last 2 regular-season contests and came close to being the first TD scorer in a Divisional Round win over the Houston Texans, but got tackled at the 1-yard line before Kareem Hunt did the rest of the work. Patrick Mahomes has a ton of confidence in Worthy right now; don’t be surprised if that duo connects for another TD in the Super Bowl.

Chiefs vs Eagles anytime touchdown scorer pick: Jalen Hurts (-105)
Odds available at DraftKings Sportsbook at time of publishing.
There’s no need to overthink this one. Getting Hurts at close to even money is a steal. He scored 14 rushing touchdowns during the regular season and already has 4 through 2 playoff games – including 3 in the NFC Championship against the Washington Commanders. The tush push is pretty much unstoppable – at least whenever the Eagles are the ones who are running it (we all saw how it turned out for the Bills). And it’s not like that’s the only way Hurts can score on the ground; he is a fantastic running QB who can go all the way from anywhere on the field.
Also, you can’t forget that Hurts had 3 rushing TDs in Super Bowl 57 against Kansas City. In fact, the Alabama and Oklahoma product scored a touchdown in all 3 postseason games that season. When the lights are brightest, Hurts is happy to do much of the work himself.
