Welcome to Fantasy Football Today and Five.

Today, Dave is providing his three favorite Super Bowl player props heading into Super Bowl 56.

0:12.7

Welcome to everybody today's Tuesday, February 8th.

0:14.7

You're listening to Fantasy Football Today and Five.

0:16.5

I'm Jamie Eisenberg.

0:17.4

I'm joined by Dave Richard.

0:18.5

We're looking at Dave's three favorite props as

0:20.9

of Tuesday. This could change because some practice reports may change, some injuries may pop up,

0:25.3

and Dave just might change his mind. But here's the three favorite props as of the early part

0:29.7

of Super Bowl week. So Dave, give me your first favorite player prop that you're looking at for Super Bowl 56.

0:34.9

I don't think this one's going to change, Jamie. Cam Acres under 16 and a half rush attempts at minus 120 from Caesar Sportsbook.

0:41.8

We haven't seen him. We've seen him get this high. He didn't do it in the last game. He had 13 attempts against San Francisco, but he only played 39% of the snaps in that game. I know he got beat up a little bit, but I'm not sure he's going to come back in play 70 plus percent of the snaps for L.A.

0:56.2

They're certainly going to utilize Sony and Michelle. Is Daryl Henderson healthy? I think we could see him get right around 13 carries, which is what he had last game. I don't think he gets to 17. So that one's my first favorite one. Eggers dealing with his shoulder injury at the end of the first week of preparation, the by week leading into the official Super Bowl week. So we'll see what his shoulder injury does in terms of practice reports leading into the game. So yes, they might lean more on Sony, Michelle, who does have a Super Bowl appearance under his belt when he beat Sean McVeigh with the New England Patriots a few years ago. Your second favorite player prop as of now heading into Super Bowl 56.

1:29.4

It's a little juicy, but as our friend, the coach likes to say, the juice is worth the squeeze.

1:34.8

It's Jemar Chase over five and a half catches at minus 135.

1:39.0

I'm willing to pay that much because he's had at least six catches in four of his last five games,

1:44.1

excluding the game week 18 against Cleveland. We're throwing that out because he barely played in that game. So I think there's still going to be lots of target volume for him. I don't see this as a game where Jalen Ramsey is going to be assigned to him to lock him down because that's going to leave a lot of other receivers open for the Cincinnati Bengals. I think that Chase gets to six catches.

2:01.1

I think he sees enough targets to get there.

2:02.9

I would imagine that Jamar Chase comes through for another good game.

2:06.7

The yardage over under 79 and a half, I feel more comfortable putting more money down on him going over five and a half catches.

2:14.7

Should be fun to see if they do decide to put Ramsey on Chase. Last time we saw, you know, Ramsey was struggling a little bit with Mike Evans in that game against the Bucks. So if you throw at great cornerback, sometimes you still get great plays. And we'll see if Joe Burrow, Zach Taylor, they decide that's the game plan to go after Ramsey, if in fact he is locked up on Chase. You can't avoid Chase in the Super Bowl if you're the Rams.

2:35.0

If you're the Bengals, if you want to have a chance to win.
