Clyde Edwards-Helaire Under 57.5 Yards Rushing (-113, FanDuel)
As seen on OddsShopper, sorting the player props for this game by the expected win percentage brings this prop to the very top. The tool gives the over on this Clyde Edwards-Helaire rushing prop a 76% chance to hit and an expected ROI of 44%. The tool also projects Edwards-Helaire for 53.4 yards rushing. Edwards-Helaire has gone over this rushing total just three times all season long. He has also seen a max of 14 carries since returning from injury, with the Chiefs splitting the snaps between him and Darrel Williams more than before. Given the workload split, it will be tough for him to go over this total, which is why OddsShopper has this prop where it is.
Clyde Edwards-Helaire Under 2.5 Receptions (-156, SugarHouse)
The Chiefs will be using Edwards-Helaire much more in the running game than the passing game this week. He is averaging two receptions per game this season, which is the same amount that he had in the first matchup with the Chargers. Los Angeles also gives up the fifth-fewest receptions to running backs in the league, at just over four per game. With Williams also getting snaps for Kansas City, all signs point to the under hitting for this prop. OddsShopper projects Edwards-Helaire for two receptions tonight, giving this prop a 70% chance to hit the under and a 15% ROI.
