The Chargers have three viable wide receivers moving in different directions in receiving yards props. Ladd McConkey (63.5) is top-rated at DraftKings, followed by Quentin Johnston (44.5) and Keenan Allen (43.5).

· McConkey (6/74, 7/100/1, 9/67, and 6/88/1)

· Johnston (5/79/2, 3/71/1, 6/89, and 4/53/1)

· Keenan Allen (7/68/1, 5/61/1, 7/65/1, 5/58, and 11/119/1)

The Steelers have allowed the most receiving yards (1,567) to wideouts, with them gaining 12.7 yards per catch and scoring seven touchdowns.

· Garrett Wilson (7/95/1)

· Cooper Kupp (7/90)

· Jason Smith-Njigba (8/103)

· Jordan Addison (4/114)

· Justin Jefferson (10/126)

· Ja’Marr Chase (16/161/1)

· Tee Higgins (6/96/1)

· Christian Watson (4/85)

· Alec Pierce (6/115)

· Michael Pittman (9/115)

At least two of the Chargers’ wide receivers should hit the over side of the receiving yards prop line. Over the past two games, Allen's snap count has regressed (25% and 37%) due to game flow. He appears to be the value at wide receiver, while Johnston offers big plays upside.
