NFL Monday Night Football Player Props: Giants vs. Rams (Week 2)

Monday Night Football features an NFC matchup between teams that both had a surprising result in Week 1, as the New York Giants take on the Los Angeles Rams at SoFi Stadium to close out Week 2. John Harbaugh is at the helm for the Giants, who upset the Cowboys last week, while Sean McVay’s Rams return from a lopsided 28-7 loss to the 49ers.

Jaxson Dart, Cam Skattebo, and Isaiah Likely will look to extend their production against a short-handed Rams’ defense that lost star edge rusher Myles Garrett to the I.R. Meanwhile, Rams QB Matthew Stafford may be targeting a wide receiving corps that doesn’t include Puka Nacua, who is questionable with a hip injury.

My NFL Monday Night Football Player Props: Broncos vs. Chiefs settled 1-1 to open the 2026 NFL season. RJ Harvey cashed Over 2.5 Receptions at -102 odds, finishing with 4 receptions during Denver’s 31-10 loss. Kenneth Walker III logged 18 receiving yards, delivering a hook on Over 18.5 Receiving Yards, which kept us from a 2-0 outing.

I’ve found three player props that I really like ahead of Week 2 Monday Night Football between the Giants and Rams. Each play is worth 1 unit of your bankroll.

Best NFL Monday Night Football Player Prop Bets

(Odds courtesy of DraftKings Sportsbook)

Cam Skattebo 50+ Rushing Yards (-124)

John Harbaugh’s run-centric identity is clearly the blueprint for the Giants’ OC Matt Nagy. It worked well in Week 1 against the Cowboys, with second-year RB Cam Skattebo recording 18 carries for 81 yards and a touchdown.

Skattebo is a physical, north-and-south runner who seeks out contact. He’ll be given a lot of carries early in this game to establish the run and set the tone against a Rams defense missing Myles Garrett.

Before injury last season, Skattebo had 50+ rushing yards in five consecutive games in seven starts with double-digit carries. The Rams gave up 174 rushing yards to the 49ers in Week 1, including 65 yards to San Francisco’s rookie RB Kaelon Black.

Skattebo’s 50+ rushing yards prop is my favorite player prop to bet on during Monday Night Football.

Kyren Williams Over 2.5 Receptions (+114)

Let’s shift our sights to the Rams’ backfield for my second player prop. RB1 Kyren Williams is a stud in every facet of McVay’s offense. It’s why we’re going to bet on Williams as a receiver against a Giants run defense that looked much improved in Week 1.

Williams wound up with three catches during a game script that forced the Rams into chase mode as he hauled in all three targets from Stafford. Even without a big deficit, I can see Stafford peppering his RB1 with targets, as Nacua deals with a hip injury that either rules him out or limits his explosiveness downfield.

The Giants gave up five receptions to Javonte Williams on five targets in Week 1. Williams logged 3+ receptions in five regular season games and one playoff appearance, including three straight starts to end the 2025 regular season.

He’s more than capable of hauling in targets with steady hands. In a tough matchup against the Giants’ revamped run defense, paired with a limited wide receiving corps in Los Angeles, Williams to go Over 2.5 Receptions at +114 odds is my next favorite player prop in this Monday Night Football tilt.

Jaxson Dart Over 6.5 Rush Attempts (-111)

A big part of Jaxson Dart’s game is his rushing ability. The second-year quarterback has no fear, using his vision, speed, and elusiveness to rack up yards as a ball carrier.

Dart finished last week’s win with 11 carries for 54 yards. He’s got a new playcaller in 2026 who should leverage Dart’s rushing upside to keep the run game balanced. The former first-round pick recorded 7+ rush attempts in 6-of-12 starts during his rookie campaign.

We’ll see at least a few designed runs and some scrambling on display from Dart against the Rams on Monday Night Football. Bet on Dart to go Over 6.5 Rush Attempts at -111 odds.
