3 best prop bets for Week 5

The New York Giants (1-3) trail to the Pacific Northwest to face the NFC West-leading Seattle Seahawks (3-1) in Week 5 of the 2024 NFL season.

The Giants will likely be without stud rookie wideout Malik Nabers (concussion protocol) and, potentially, their top rusher Devin Singletary (groin).

Singletary could still suit up come Sunday but appears to be trending as out this week. That is why the oddsmakers didn’t have player props available until Friday.

With the Giants throwing the ball on 65 percent of their offensive snaps this season and Nabers getting the majority of the targets, it bodes well for the team’s other receivers against the Seahawks.

Giants WR Darius Slayton OVER 38.5 receiving yards (-115)

Darius Slayton has hit the receptions over in seven of his last nine away games and is averaging 30 yards per game with Nabers in the lineup. Without Nabers, he will see an increased volume of targets. He has 56 yards on five catches in Week 4 versus Dallas.

Seahawks WR DK Metcalf anytime touchdown (+140)

DK Metcalf has two touchdowns this season and now faces Giants cornerback Deonte Banks, who has given up an NFL-high four touchdowns this season. Metcalf scored in each of his last two contests in 2022-23 against the Giants.

Seahawks WR DK Metcalf 75+ alternative receiving yards (+125)

Metcalf has eclipsed 100 or more yards in each of the last three weeks and, even though Banks will dog him, isn’t likely to keep him from at least logging in several big catches.
