Week 6 of NFL football presents another opportunity to hammer NFL player props. With sportsbooks set to release their lines soon, I’ve identified several potential over/unders that deserve your consideration.
One of my top picks for Week 6 come in the Packers vs Cardinals matchup, where I expect Jordan Love to have a big day through the air against a struggling Cardinals secondary. Additionally, Raiders’ wide receiver Tre Tucker and Giants’ tight end Darren Waller are worth looking at in their respective games.
Let’s delve deeper into the early NFL player props I’m targeting for Week 6.

Jordan Love Passing Yards
I’m looking to target Green Bay Packers pivot Jordan Love in the Week 6 NFL player props as he battles Arizona. The 25-year-old threw for 224 yards against the Rams last weekend, which could place some value on his passing yards total in Week 6.
The Cardinals’ defense is currently ranked 27th in the league, allowing an average of 25.8 points per game. They are giving up over eight yards per pass attempt, and PFF grades their pass coverage at 52.6, which is the third-lowest mark in the league.
Arizona Cardinals cannot get off the field on third and long. Struggled all season.
Defense not doing themselves any favors.

Before last weekend, Love had completed 32 passes for 396 yards in a matchup with Super Bowl odds favorite Minnesota. I think we’ll see Love utilize his arm more in Week 6, especially with tight end Tucker Kraft breaking out in Week 5 and becoming a reliable target in the passing game.
Love continues to be a fairly erratic quarterback, making the general public hesitant to bet on him. However, he continues to progress in his return from injury and lands a favorable Week 6 matchup. Not to mention, the Packers/Cards total is one of the highest on the board.

Tre Tucker Receiving Yards
Another player I’m looking to back in NFL Week 6 player props is Raiders wide receiver Tre Tucker. There won’t be many bets on the Las Vegas players this weekend following the team’s ugly loss to Denver. However, I like Tucker to have a big day through the air.
The 23-year-old only caught two passes for 18 yards last weekend, which should lower his player props for Week 6. The good news is he’s been targeted at least five times in three straight games and is benefitting from Davante Adams not playing.

Adams is reportedly trending towards playing in Week 6, but there is speculation he will be traded before that. I’m looking to target Tucker in the NFL player props if a trade breaks or there is an injury update.
The Steelers are allowing 8.75 yards per throw against opposing receivers, which is bottom-five in the NFL. Tucker faced one of the league’s best passing defenses last weekend, plus an elite corner in Riley Moss, who has allowed a 64% catch rate. Look for some positive regression for Tucker in Week 6.

Theo Johnson Anytime TD
When it comes to the anytime touchdown market for NFL Week 6, I’m looking to back Giants TE Theo Johnson to get into the endzone. The 23-year-old is yet to find paydirt in 2024, but he’s coming off a breakout performance and lands a favorable matchup.
Waller had his best game as a Giant in their 29-20 victory over the Seahawks. The veteran caught all five of his targets for 48 yards, averaging 9.6 yards per reception. This is a notable upgrade over his first four weeks, where he had only three catches on eight targets for 37 yards total.

I project Johnson to take another step forward in Week 6 against a Bengals defense that is struggling against tight ends. Cincinnati is allowing 50 yards per game to the TE position so far, including an ugly 7.94 yards per throw.
The Bengals’ defense has been doing a decent job stopping the run, but they are getting shredded through the air. With Waller proving to be a reliable short-to-intermediate option for QB Daniel Jones, I expect him to collect his first TD on Sunday.
