The Baltimore Ravens look to extend their four-game win streak when they head to Tampa to face the Buccaneers for one of the two Monday Night Football matchups. With the way the Ravens and Buccaneers have been putting up points this season, there could be some MNF player prop bets to consider.
When looking at the NFL injury report, Tampa Bay cornerback Jamel Dean has been ruled out and that is not good news for the Buccaneers going up against Lamar Jackson and the Ravens. Defensive tackle Vita Vea and running back Rachaad White are listed as questionable. Linebacker Malik Harrison has been ruled out for Baltimore. There shouldn’t be any weather concerns heading into the game.
Tampa Bay is looking to move a game ahead of Atlanta in the NFC South Division and win its first game this season against a team from the AFC.
Let’s take a look at some of the best player prop options to consider when the 4-2 Ravens meet up with the 4-2 Buccaneers at 8:15 p.m. ET game that will air on ABC, ESPN and ESPN+.
Top 3 Monday Night Football Prop Bets for Ravens vs Buccaneers
1. Lamar Jackson Could Pile Up Yards On the Ground
Defending against an elusive quarterback has not been one of the strengths of the 2024 Tampa Bay Buccaneers and that could factor into the best MNF prop bets.
Rookie Bo Nix had 47 yards and a touchdown in Denver’s upset of the Buccaneers, Jalen Hurts of the Philadelphia Eagles also ran for a score against Tampa Bay while Washington’s Jayden Daniels rumbled for 88 yards and a pair of scores.
Even as Tampa Bay was pulling away from NFC South rival New Orleans in Week 6, Spencer Rattler ripped off a 16-yard run for the longest play from scrimmage for the Saints.
Now Tampa Bay gets to try to slow down one of the best running quarterbacks in NFL history.

Lamar Jackson has had more than 10 carries in four of the first six games for the Ravens. Even with Jackson having a season-low 40 rushing yards in last week’s matchup with Washington, take a look at the -121 BetUS sportsbook odds for Jackson to have at least 53 rushing yards.
Bet This Prop: Lamar Jackson to Have 53+ Rushing Yards (-121)
2. Baker Mayfield May Need To Air It Out on MNF
No team in the NFL is harder to run against than the Baltimore Ravens so it could be buyer beware for those tempted to look at the props for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers even if they ran for 277 yards a week ago.
It has been an all-or-nothing scenario for Buccaneers quarterback Baker Mayfield in the last five games. In wins over Philadelphia and New Orleans, Mayfield threw for 347 and 325 yards with six touchdown passes. He was held to fewer than 200 passing yards against Detroit, Denver and Atlanta with Tampa Bay losing two of those games.

3. Bateman Ready to Catch On
Nobody should benefit more from the emergence of Baltimore receiver Zay Flowers than Rashod Bateman.
Bateman is averaging 16.1 yards per reception this season. He has a season-high four catches in each of Baltimore’s last two games.
Don’t expect Bateman to make a run at his third 100-yard game in his four seasons with the Ravens but the -115 odds for Bateman to have at least 36 receiving yards is a pretty tempting option for bettors.
Bet This Prop: Rashod Bateman to Have 35+ Receiving Yards (-115)
