If looking to wager on the player prop market for Cowboys vs. Steelers, we have 3 prop leans to consider for Sunday Night Football!
Cowboys vs. Steelers – NFL Player Props
- George Pickens Over/Under 54.5 Receiving Yards
- Justin Fields Over/Under 0.5 Touchdowns
- Najee Harris Over/Under 0.5 Touchdowns
George Pickens OVER 54.5 Receiving Yards (-110, Bet365)
George Pickens doesn’t frequently have his name mentioned in conversations talking about the best wide receivers in the NFL, but that might begin to change soon. Pickens doesn’t play in a pass-heavy offense, but he certainly makes the most of his opportunities. Pickens had 85 receiving yards in Week 1, 57 receiving yards in Week 3, and another 113 receiving yards in Week 4. He has another good matchup on Sunday Night Football, facing a Dallas defense that could be without multiple starters in their secondary unit. If Pickens sees another 7+ targets, this wager should have a great chance to cash.
Justin Fields OVER 0.5 Touchdowns (+145, FanDuel)
The Cowboys defense has had their troubles with mobile quarterbacks early in 2024. They allowed 39 rushing yards to Deshaun Watson in Week 1 and 87 rushing yards to Lamar Jackson in Week 2. Justin Fields has been consistently active as a runner so far this fall, with multiple games of 10+ rush attempts and no games with fewer than 6 rush attempts. Fields’ rushing yards could be worth a look tonight, but significant plus odds for him to find the end zone has a little bit more potential ROI. Don’t be surprised if he runs for a touchdown for the third week in a row.
Najee Harris OVER 0.5 Touchdowns (-105, FanDuel)
On Sunday, Najee Harris should once again have a clear path to goal line duties, with RB Jaylen Warren and RB Cordarrelle Patterson both ruled out. This season, Harris has received 12 of the team’s 13 red zone carries that have gone to running backs, including both opportunities at the goal line. Justin Fields is always a threat to vulture a touchdown when his team is near the end zone, but these are great odds for Harris in a favorable matchup against a weak Dallas run defense.
