Jayden Daniels (Washington) Player Prop
Jayden Daniels is a strong candidate to eclipse 220 passing yards tonight against Green Bay, with both matchup dynamics and historical trends pointing toward volume through the air. His official passing prop is set at 225.5 yards, and he surpassed that number in 10 of 17 games last season, including a 254-yard outing against Cincinnati and 275 against Dallas. Daniels averaged 209.9 passing yards per game in his rookie campaign but has shown clear growth in command and efficiency, completing over 68% of his throws in Week 1. Green Bay’s defense allowed 233 passing yards to Baker Mayfield in their opener and ranked 22nd in opponent completion rate last season. With Washington likely to lean on Daniels’ arm in a projected shootout and his top receivers healthy, he’s well-positioned to clear the 220-yard mark and deliver value on this alt-line.

Commanders & Packers Scoring Prop
Both the Commanders and Packers are well-positioned to score 20+ points tonight, making this alt-line prop a strong play in a matchup loaded with offensive upside. Green Bay averaged 27.1 points per game last season and opened 2025 with a 27–13 win over Detroit, showcasing a balanced attack led by Jordan Love and Josh Jacobs. Washington, meanwhile, dropped 21 on the Giants in Week 1 and enters with a dual-threat quarterback in Jayden Daniels, who adds red-zone versatility and tempo control. The total is set at 48.5—tied for the highest of the week—and historical trends support scoring: Washington is 6–0 to the Over on the road vs. teams off a double-digit win, while Green Bay is 6–0 to the Over against NFC East opponents. With both teams trending toward offensive efficiency and the game script favoring a back-and-forth pace, 20+ points apiece is well within reach.

Josh Jacobs (Green Bay) Player Prop
Josh Jacobs Under 18.5 rushing attempts is a sharp prop angle for tonight’s matchup against Washington, given both game script and defensive matchup concerns. Jacobs logged 19 carries in Week 1, but that came with a positive game flow and a run-heavy second half. Against a Commanders front that just held Giants backs to 30 rushing yards on 15 attempts, Green Bay is likely to lean more on short passing and tempo to move the chains. Washington graded out as the top run defense in Week 1 per PFF (88.3), and their ability to control the line of scrimmage could force the Packers into a more balanced or pass-heavy approach. With Jacobs averaging just 16.4 carries over his last eight games and Green Bay unlikely to dominate possession, staying under 18.5 attempts is the value side of this prop.
