Monday Night Football between the Buccaneers and Chiefs could get ugly, fast. The Chiefs come in undefeated and as 9.5-point favorites at home to a decimated Buccaneers team that is without its top 2 wide receivers in Mike Evans and Chris Godwin. Let’s get into my Buccaneers vs Chiefs touchdown scorer best bets for MNF. You can also find out our full Buccaneers vs Chiefs predictions on the side and total for Monday Night Football as well as our NFL picks for every game throughout the season.
Buccaneers vs Chiefs anytime touchdown scorer pick: Xavier Worthy (+230)
Odds available at FanDuel Sportsbook at time of publishing.
I’m all for the attention DeAndre Hopkins is getting since joining the Chiefs. After Rashee Rice went down with a knee injury that will hold him out for the rest of the season, the Chiefs needed another playmaker on offense. But Xavier Worthy has quietly played exceptionally well for a rookie. His 17% target share on the year leads the Chiefs’ entire wide receiver room. Even more importantly, that number has skyrocketed to 26.7% over the last 2 weeks. The Chiefs’ implied team total is upwards of 25 on some books, and I’d expect Worthy to contribute to that. At +230 odds, we’re getting great value on the rookie finding the end zone.

Buccaneers vs Chiefs anytime touchdown scorer pick: Noah Gray (+480)
Odds available at FanDuel Sportsbook at time of publishing.
With the lack of playmakers on the Chiefs, Noah Gray has filled a nice void this season. He’s logged 58% of the snaps on offense this season, including back-to-back season highs. He’s reeled in 17 of his 18 targets this season for a 94% success rate, making him a trusted target of Patrick Mahomes. With all the attention on Travis Kelce down the middle of the field and Worthy taking the top off of the defense, Gray could sneak through and find the end zone for the first time this season. At +480 odds, I think it’s worth taking a shot on him.
