The goal is to finish each week in the black. Although Tez Johnson made us sweat, that was the case in what was another 2-1 week. Again, this is a marathon, and the key is to continue plugging along with positive momentum. There’s always another slate to research as we look to keep the progress going. Let’s not delay as we dig into our Week 9 NFL Player Props on FanDuel Sportsbook.

Week 9 NFL Player Props (FanDuel Sportsbook)
Tyrone Tracy Over 52.5 Rushing Yards (-114)
By no means is this the way you want it to happen. Not only are the New York Giants without Malik Nabers, but now rookie Cameron Skataboo is out as well.
If this were last season, once Tyrone Tracy found his groove, there wouldn’t be any questions. While not elite, it also helps here that the Giants’ offense is starting to find its groove. After Skattebo’s injury last week, Tracy carried the ball 10 times for 39 yards.
The good news is that you don’t have to worry about the depth charts, as the volume does belong to Tracy. This week, Tracy faces a mid-range San Francisco 49ers run defense, as he should hit his player prop with ease. Now we just need him to get comfortable to make his mark. It’s not a matchup that’s going to jump out, but even as Dart improves, the Giants are going to play things conservatively.

Brock Bowers Over 51.5 Receiving Yards (-114)
The return of Brock Bowers has been a long time coming for the Las Vegas Raiders’ offense. Their stud tight end has been sorely missed as there’s truly no one in place to step up and take on that role.
After practicing in full this week, there should be nothing holding Bowers back. You can also make the argument that, in coming off the bye week, Bowers is more than ready to return, and there shouldn’t be any restrictions on him.
Bowers broke the century mark in Week 1 but then regressed to between 38 and 46 receiving yards in the next three. While all are short of this week’s player prop, it’s still a manageable number that a healthy Bowers should be able to hit.
From a matchup perspective, the Jacksonville Jaguars rank 27th with 246 passing yards allowed per game. As a bonus, I’d also look for Bowers to catch his first touchdown pass of the season on Sunday.
Travis Kelce Over 44.5 Receiving Yards (-114)
We have seen this story before. Sunday brings us an exciting matchup between the Kansas City Chiefs and Buffalo Bills. The action, along with the offense and excitement, should be quite plentiful.
It’s a big game, so we should expect Travis Kelce to find success and step up. However, Kelce’s player prop for receiving yards doesn’t even call on him to truly stand out. Instead, it’s a modest number that Kelce should hit with ease.
There’s only been one week this season that Kelce hasn’t hit Sunday’s player prop and there’s nothing to suggest that trend won’t continue in Week 9. From a confidence perspective, it also helps that Kelce’s performance has been kicked up a few notches over the past few weeks. A big game against Buffalo should bring more of the same.
