The Washington Commanders host the Philadelphia Eagles in Week 16 action from Northwest Stadium. The Eagles come to town winners of 10 in a row and beat the Commanders five weeks ago, 26-18, in a game Washington led to begin the fourth quarter.
With two potential playoff teams, a pair of high-profile quarterbacks, some of the NFL’s best wide receivers, and an MVP-caliber running back, this game offers multiple enticing player prop bets for the Commanders and Eagles.
Here are our four favorite player props for Commanders-Eagles this Sunday, with all odds via BetMGM.
Jalen Hurts anytime TD scorer (-130)

Jalen Hurts is second in the NFL with 14 touchdowns scored, behind Derrick Henry and Ja’Marr Chase. Most of Hurts’ touchdowns have come on the “tush push.” The play is virtually unstoppable, and you can bet if the Eagles get close to the goal line, Hurts will be running the ball, making him a near-lock to score.

In the first meeting, Jayden Daniels carried the ball seven times for 18 yards. Remember, Daniels was coming off a rib injury, which impacted his overall numbers. Daniels has rushed for 174 yards and two touchdowns over the last three games. His legs will be a factor on Sunday.
Saquon Barkley over 11.5 receiving yards (-120)

Saquon Barkley is a good bet to rush over 100 yards. The Commanders have one of the NFL’s worst run defenses, and Barkley runs on everyone. Additionally, Barkley has enjoyed plenty of success against Washington, including 146 yards and two touchdowns five weeks ago. However, Barkley also gets it done as a receiver. Barkley will easily hit the over here. He had 52 receiving yards in Week 11 on two receptions.
Terry McLaurin over 62.5 receiving yards (-115)

Terry McLaurin has enjoyed plenty of success against the Eagles over the years. However, in the Week 11 meeting, McLaurin had one reception for 10 yards and only two targets. While the fantasy advice is to sit McLaurin, you can bet offensive coordinator Kliff Kingsbury will prioritize involving McLaurin — early and often. And, unlike last time, you can probably expect McLaurin to move around more. Don’t be surprised when McLaurin hits the over and has at least one big play.
