Nabers looks to continue his hot start to his NFL career with a 70.5 receiving yards projection against Dallas. The 2024 sixth-overall pick went over this projection at legal NFL betting apps in back-to-back games.
Malik Nabers Receiving Yards Prop
- Over 70.5 Receiving Yards -115
- Under 70.5 Receiving Yards -115
Giants quarterback Daniel Jones and Nabers have established a strong connection to begin the season, with Nabers leading the NFL in targets (37) and target share (38%) through three weeks. The volume is no issue for Nabers, but this makes his receptions prop more appealing with +110 odds for the over.

Nabers went over 6.5 receptions in each of his last two games, posting eight catches in Week 3 and 10 catches in Week 2. Despite his impressive volume, legal Texas sports betting odds favor the under on Nabers’ receptions prop with -145 odds.
Malik Nabers Receptions Prop
- Over 6.5 Receptions +110

Nabers has been targeted 30 targets times in his last two games, making his measly 6.5 receptions prop an easy bet on the over at +110 odds. Getting the ball in Malik Nabers hands has produced two wins so far, so doing so again in Week 4 is the best way for the Giants will cash in their +205 moneyline odds.
