Which NFL Player Bonuses To Bet in Week 18?

Texans vs. Colts (Lucas Oil Stadium)

Player in focus: Dalton Schultz (TE)

When: 01/06/23, 8.15PM (EDT)

Bonus 1: 4 receptions = $250k

Bonus 2: 6 receptions = $500k

Receptions line: 4.5

Dimers projection: 3.7 receptions

Probability of Under 4.5 catches: 72.1%

Summary: Given DimersBOT projects just 3.7 catches for Schultz, it looks like he is going to miss out on an extra $500k in bonuses, given the 72.1% probability that he doesn’t reach 4.5. With Nico Collins getting the majority of supply from Texans QB C.J. Stroud - and with a playoffs spot up for grabs - it looks like the Texans TE will need something special to get to the 6 catches required to strike pay dirt this week. The $250k on offer for four receptions is still in play, though, which would be some consolation.

Bet: Dalton Schultz Under 4.5 receptions (-110)

Texans vs. Colts (Lucas Oil Stadium)

Player in focus: Devin Singletary (RB)

When: 01/06/23, 8.15PM (EDT)

Bonus: 165 yards = $125k

Rushing yards line: 66.5

Dimers projection: 60 rush yards

Probability of Under 66.5 yards: 62.7%

Summary: DimersBOT projects just 60 yards for Singletary from 13.4 rushing attempts on Saturday vs. the Colts. As such, he is expected to fall well short of an extra $125k in bonuses, given the 62.7% probability that he doesn’t even reach his line of 66.5. While Texans QB C.J. Stroud is rated a 59.6 chance of surpassing his passing attempts line (34) - with 21.5 projected completions - there simply won't be anywhere near enough opportunities for the Texans RB to surpass the mammoth task of registering the 165 yards needed to trigger his bonus.

Bet: Devin Singletary Under 66.5 rush yards (-110)

Bills vs. Dolphins (Hard Rock Stadium)

Player in focus: Tyreek Hill (WR)

When: 01/7/23, 8.20PM (EDT)

Bonus 1: 248 yards = Record

Receiving yards line: 94.5

Dimers projection: 80 yards

Probability of Under 94.5 yards: 65.4%

Summary: Given DimersBOT projects just 80 yards for Tyreek, it looks like he is going to miss out on breaking Detroit Lions' star Calvin Johnson's single-season receiving yards record, set in 2013, given the 65.4% probability that he doesn’t even reach 94.5.

Bet: Tyreek Hill Under 94.5 yards (-114)
