Super Bowl Wide Receiver Prop Picks: Bet on Chiefs Duo on Feb 9

 

Super Bowl Sunday is all about big plays, and no position delivers fireworks like wide receivers. While most focus on the usual suspects, Xavier Worthy and Hollywood Brown of the Kansas City Chiefs offer serious betting value in unexpected ways.

Worthy’s rushing prop is a hidden gem, thanks to his gadget role in Kansas City’s offense, while Brown’s deep target rate makes his longest reception prop a must-bet. The Chiefs’ fast-paced, pass-heavy offense puts both receivers in prime spots to hit their overs against the Philadelphia Eagles.

If you’re looking for high-upside Super Bowl player prop bets, these two on Kansas City wideouts are too good to pass up.

 

Top 2 WR Prop Picks for Super Bowl 59

1. Xavier Worthy Over 6.5 Rushing Yards

What better way to kick off an article about wide receiver predictions than with a rushing prop?

Rookie Xavier Worthy’s rushing props are criminally undervalued, and I’m all in on them this Sunday. The rookie burner has been getting consistent handoffs, and even when he doesn’t, the Chiefs’ play design gives him extra chances. Some of his short “catches” are actually handoffs behind the line, which count as rushes. That’s a sneaky edge in our favor.

Since Week 1, Kansas City has made Worthy part of the run game, giving him at least one carry in 14 of 19 games, including 2 for 16 yards against the Bills in the AFC Championship. With Brown back in the lineup, the Chiefs shifted Worthy’s role, making him their primary gadget player. He’s hit 6.5+ rushing yards in seven games, averaging 5.2 yards per carry and scoring three rushing TDs, per Chiefs vs Eagles stats.

And let’s be honest: This bet can cash on one play. Worthy is one decent block away from a big gain, and the Chiefs love scheming up plays to get him in space. Philly’s defense will be so focused on stopping Patrick Mahomes and tight end Kelce that Worthy could slip through unnoticed.

Kansas City isn’t reinventing the wheel against the Eagles. The Chiefs will lean on power rushing, in-breaking routes and Worthy’s speed. If the game script forces them to get creative, it only boosts this NFL prediction‘s chances.

Bet This Pick: Xavier Worthy Over 6.5 Rushing Yards (-108)

 

2. Hollywood Brown Longest Reception Over 18.5 Yards

With Brown’s longest catch NFL odds for the Over/Under at 18.5 yards, I’m happily betting on a player with three deep targets (20+ air yards) in two playoff games. Sure, he hasn’t caught one yet, but that just a minor detail I am choosing to overlook.

Brown’s 42.9% deep target rate this postseason is one of the highest among Chiefs pass-catchers, and he’s averaging a healthy 18.3 air yards per target, per NFL betting trends. This line is lower than Dallas Goedert and Xavier Worthy, both of whom get fewer deep looks. Even if Brown doesn’t come down with a pure deep ball, his speed makes him a threat to turn a short pass into a big gain.

The Chiefs’ pass-heavy, up-tempo offense (2nd-most pass-oriented in the league, 7th-fastest pace) only boosts his chances. Plus, this game is indoors, meaning there is no NFL news for bad weather — just clean, efficient passing conditions.

Yeah, the Eagles’ defense is good at limiting explosive plays. But Kansas City brought in Brown specifically for his deep-threat ability, and he’s finally getting the snaps (65%+ in both playoff games).

One deep shot. One broken tackle. One blown coverage. That’s all we need for this online bet. I’m taking Hollywood to snag a long reception of at least 19 yards.

Bet This Pick: Hollywood Brown Longest Reception Over 18.5 Yards (-115)
