How to bet on NFL touchdown props

On the surface, NFL TD props are simple and straightforward wagers. If you bet on a player to score and he does, you win. However, there are several variations of the bet, all of which will have their own odds.

• Anytime TD scorer: A wager on a player to score at any time during the game.
• First or last TD of the game: Bet on which player will score the opening or final touchdown of the game.
• Player to score two-plus TDs: Place your bet on a player to have a multi-touchdown game.
• First TD scorer by team: Pick which player will cross the goal line first for each team.
• Over/under on player TDs: You pick over or under a line that the sportsbook sets.

The anytime TD wager tends to capture the most attention from bettors, while the other options are there for those who might be looking for some extra risk.

Other ways to bet on NFL TD props

Beyond the basic and slightly more advanced options, there are other ways to factor TD betting into NFL wagering:

• TD/moneyline parlay: A two-leg parlay where you tie together a player to score along with the outcome of the game.
• Team/player to score the first TD and win: Place a combo bet on a team or player to score the game’s first touchdown, plus that team to win the game.
• Touchdowns by quarter: Bet on which players will find pay dirt in a specific quarter.
• Player to score a TD in the first, second, or both halves: Wager on players to score a touchdown in the first, second, or both halves of the game.
• Defense/special teams TDs: Some sportsbooks offer a standalone bet on whether there will be a DST touchdown in the game.

In addition, be on the lookout for special sportsbook promos for NFL touchdown props. You may find options like odds boosts, bet insurance, and special parlays throughout the course of the season.

NFL regular season TD leaders

In advance of the regular season, many legal online sportsbooks will post over/under bets on total touchdowns scored during the upcoming campaign by the league’s top players.

For bettors, the goal is to make the correct call against the benchmark number that the sportsbook has set. As an example, if the line for Patrick Mahomes’ total passing TDs is 35.5, you can choose over or under that amount. You can also bet on the leaders in specific categories.

Looking back to last season, Mahomes led QBs with 41 passing TDs. Jamaal Williams had the most rushing TDs with 17, while Davante Adams topped the charts for receiving TDs with 14.

Odds and payouts for TD prop bets

Many TD prop bets will have multiple options for bettors to choose from, similar to a futures bet. Others can have just two choices, similar to what you would find in a standard moneyline or over/under bet.

As always, payouts on winning bets will depend on your stake and the odds when you placed your bet. Let’s walk through examples of both types:

Detroit Lions vs. Kansas City Chiefs anytime TD scorer

A bet like this will have odds for all of the players that the sportsbook deems to have at least a chance of finding the end zone. The list of options will begin with the top favorites, as in the skill position players who handle the ball the most.

As you move further down the list, there will be odds for other players, including the starting QBs, offensive role players, and the defense/special teams for both sides. The less likely it is for a player to score — at least in the eyes of the oddsmakers — the longer the odds will be.

If we look at our example, a $100 bet on Kelce at odds of  -125 would bring back $80 in profit if he scores at any time during the game, while the same amount on Gibbs at +180 would be for the chance to win $180 in profit.

Derrick Henry (Tennessee Titans) — total touchdowns scored in game

• Over 1.5 (+155)
• Under 1.5 (-175)

Two-sided TD props tend to be for top players. For this example, we have to decide if we think Henry will clear the 1.5-TD line. If he fails to find the end zone or scores just once, then betting on the under is the correct call, while over bets would win with a multi-touchdown game. At odds of -175, a $50 wager has a chance to win $28.55, while $50 at +155 could win $77.50.

Can you parlay NFL TD props?

The potential for solid returns is a good part of the appeal of TD props. For example, outside of the top favorites, positive odds are common for an anytime TD bet, which translates into the chance to double your money or more on winning wagers.

You can also include touchdown props in parlay wagers, either same-game parlays or regular ones that span several contests. The returns for winning parlays can be quite lucrative, but there’s a big caveat: To win, you have to get all of your selections correct. If you miss on just one pick, then the bet loses, and you’ll lose your initial stake. Before placing a parlay, take the time to consider the risk to reward and your comfort level.

Tips for touchdown prop bets

Betting on NFL TD props can be fun, but it can also be frustrating when your selections fail to find the end zone. No matter how well you research, that possibility will always be there. However, here are some tips to keep in mind as you consider where to bet:

• Game script and projected score: The odds and lines can help you estimate the amount of scoring the oddsmakers expect to see in the game. From there, you can try to envision how the game itself might play out. By taking a step back and assessing the contest as a whole, you’ll potentially walk away with better insight into how things might play out.
• Fantasy stats and projections: Player props share a lot in common with fantasy sports. In both cases, you’re trying to figure out which players will perform the best. There are plenty of websites and apps that are devoted to fantasy projections. While none of them are crystal balls, there are some solid spots to help with your research.
• Matchup and recent play: Dig in to see which teams have the best chance to be productive on the ground or through the air for this week’s games. Next, examine what has been happening over the last few games for the most intriguing candidates. Players and teams can go through hot and cold streaks, so try to identify those.
