Despite his growing role on the team, Houston Texans rookie wideout Jayden Higgins is being undervalued ahead of this primetime clash at Arrowhead Stadium.

Texans anytime touchdown pick
Jayden Higgins (+380 at FanDuel)
The Houston Texans selected Jayden Higgins with the 34th pick in the draft after a stellar career at Iowa State. The rookie has made an immediate impact, snagging a touchdown in four of his last nine games.
The 6-foot-4, 215-pound wideout provides a big target in the red zone and has earned the trust of C.J. Stroud. Higgins has seen 28 targets over his last four games, even with Christian Kirk back in Houston’s crowded WR room.
Since Week 6, Higgins is second on the Texans in red-zone targets with seven — just two behind Nico Collins, whose anytime TD prop sits at +165.
Higgins provides far better value at +380.Â

Chiefs anytime touchdown pick
Kareem Hunt (+145 at FanDuel)
Kareem Hunt leads the Kansas City Chiefs with eight touchdowns this season (seven rushing and one receiving). The veteran running back totaled 80 yards on 15 touches last week but failed to find the end zone. That snapped a four-game touchdown streak for Hunt.
Isiah Pacheco returned to the Chiefs’ backfield last week after missing a month with a knee injury. Although he may begin to eat into Hunt’s reps, Pacheco won’t see nearly as much usage in the red zone.
Pacheco has 81 carries this season, but he hasn’t had a single one inside the 5-yard line. Meanwhile, Hunt has 14 carries from that distance and converted seven into touchdowns.
