Week 1 of the NFL season is finally upon us, bringing a plethora of player prop bets centered around the league’s standout athletes. Ja’Marr Chase, a wide receiver for the Bengals, recorded an impressive 127 receptions for 1,708 yards last season, leading the league in both categories. In the upcoming Week 1 matchup against the Cleveland Browns, his receiving yards over/under is set at 83.5, as per the latest NFL odds. Last season, Chase had six receptions for 97 yards and a touchdown against the Browns, which strengthens the case for the SportsLine Projection Model endorsing a wager on him to surpass the 83.5 receiving yards threshold.
