Week 3 NFL Prop Bets: Focus on Josh Allen, Aaron Rodgers, and Other Key Players
Top NFL Player Prop Bets for Week 3
Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen, Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers, and Atlanta Falcons tight end Kyle Pitts are highlighted as top NFL player prop bets for Week 3.
Josh Allen has a history of success against the Miami Dolphins, averaging 46.2 rushing yards per game across 14 matchups and posting his career-high of 135 rushing yards against them in 2018. With 20 designed runs this season, Allen has already rushed for 89 yards, averaging 4.5 yards per carry. His breakaway speed and the potential for Miami's struggling run defense to continue its struggles make Allen's rushing yards a potential profitable prop bet.
Kyle Pitts is averaging 48 yards per game and ranks ninth among tight ends in fantasy through two weeks with 20.6 points. His connection with quarterback Michael Penix Jr. has been strong, with Pitts grabbing 11 catches on 13 targets for 96 yards and an 85% catch rate. The Carolina Panthers' linebacker group is expected to present opportunities for Pitts to exploit, as they ranked sixth-worst against tight ends last season and have struggled to cover athletic tight ends this year. With the Falcons entering as 5.5-point road favorites against the Panthers, creating more opportunities for Pitts seems likely.
Aaron Rodgers is averaging 223.5 passing yards through two games in Pittsburgh and has a 63.5% completion rate, 447 yards, five touchdowns, and a 91.2 rating so far. The matchup between Rodgers and the New England Patriots' secondary is expected to present significant opportunities for Rodgers, as the Patriots allowed 362 passing yards to Geno Smith in Week 1 and 109 yards to Tyreek Hill in Week 2. With the Patriots' linebacker coverage allowing a 151.4 QB rating, which is the worst unit in their defense, Rodgers is likely to have clean pockets to throw.
NFL Week 3 player props present significant value due to adjustments in the betting market based on Week 2 results. Specific matchups are being targeted where betting lines don't reflect on-field realities. For instance, the New England Patriots are currently without All-Pro corner Christian Gonzalez, who was second-team All-Pro last year with 59 tackles, 11 pass breakups, and two interceptions.
The Miami Dolphins' run defense is struggling, allowing 139 rushing yards per game (25th in the NFL) and three rushing touchdowns through two games in 2025. Daniel Jones and Drake Maye have had success rushing against Miami this season. Therefore, Josh Allen's rushing yards against Miami could be another profitable prop bet.
Frank Gore holds the record for the most rushing yards by an NFL player overall, and given his prominence and longevity as a top rusher, it is very likely he is also the player with the most rushing yards against the Miami Dolphins historically. However, without specific data for Gore's matchups against Miami, it is difficult to make a definitive statement about his potential success in Week 3.
In conclusion, Josh Allen, Aaron Rodgers, and Kyle Pitts are top NFL player prop bets for Week 3, with Allen's rushing yards against Miami, Pitts' opportunities against the Carolina Panthers, and Rodgers' matchup against the New England Patriots offering the most potential for profit.
