NFL Wild Card Weekend 2025: Player Prop Best Bets & Odds - January 10-12

All odds provided by Betway.

Kyren Williams, RB, LAR - Over 64.5 Rushing Yards (-110) @ CAR

Whenever people talk about these Rams, it’s all about Matthew Stafford, Sean McVay, and the rest of the passing game. And while we did strongly consider betting on Puka Nacua, who is on an absolute roll right now, the numbers and trends told us to go with the unsung hero of this offense: Kyren Williams and the running game. 

We actually made this exact bet back in Week 13 when these teams last met and Williams hit it, going for 72 yards. He has actually hit 60+ yards in nine of his last 10 games, and 70+ in eight of those. Carolina, meanwhile, has allowed the 10th-most rush yards over the last four weeks.

They’ve allowed 140+ in five of their last six and 120+ in eight of their last 10. For the season, Carolina gave up the eighth-most rush yards to RBs. We expect L.A. to lead for a lot of this game, so Williams should get the 15 carries he needs to guarantee an over here.

Josh Jacobs, RB, GB - Anytime TD Scorer (-120) @ CHI

Josh Jacobs has been dealing with a couple of different health issues over the past month, but he’s had about two weeks without a game now to convalesce. Considering he was able to play through these ailments a few times, we imagine he’s now as close to 100 percent as he’s been since November. That’s why we love him to get back in the end zone here.

He has scored at least once in 20 of 23 games with the Packers during which he didn’t miss time due to injury. However, he’s been specifically frisky against the Bears—and that goes back to his time with the Raiders as well. He’s played six full games against Chicago in his career, and he’s scored in five of those. In fact, Jacobs actually had his first 100-yard game as a pro against the Bears back during his rookie season in 2019.

Omarion Hampton, RB, LAC - Over Rushing Yards (-110) @ NE

This is a tricky one because there are some health questions surrounding L.A.’s starting rookie running back, Omarion Hampton. Since he returned from injury, Hampton’s rush yards line has been in the 50 to 55-yard range. We expect it to be around there for this matchup, if not lower considering the Chargers are road dogs. If Hampton doesn’t play, backup Kimani Vidal will likely have a line somewhere in the 40s.

We like the over on either one depending on the scenario. And the reason for that is not only that Hampton had 55+ rush yards in his three full games since coming back (Vidal averaged about 67 yards on the ground in nine starts this season), but because of New England’s defense. Defensive tackle Milton Williams will be back, but he has already talked about how he’s still dealing with his high ankle sprain. Who knows how he will play. Or for how long.

Without him, the Pats have been quietly awful defending the run. They have been giving up 141.5 yards per game on the ground over the last four weeks, fifth-most in the NFL during that time. They have given up 160+ in three of their last four games—and one of those was against the Jets. They gave up 100+ rush yards just twice in their first nine games, but they did it in seven of eight games heading into the playoffs.
