NFL Most Receiving Yards Odds, Predictions, Best Bets 2024: Ja’Marr Chase Has Been the Most Productive Receiver

  • J’Marr Chase now has a 149-yard cushion after torching the Dallas secondary for 177 yards

  • Chase’s odds now give him an 87.73% chance to lead the league in receiving yards this season

  • Justin Jefferson has the second-highest percentage to lead the league in receiving yards at 20%

Quarterbacks are only as good as their wide receivers and the other guys that catch passes. But the same can be said the other way around: receivers are only as good as their quarterbacks (just ask Tyreek Hill). So—who will lead the league in receiving yards this season?

The names at the top of the receiving yards leader betting board at BetRivers have changed since the beginning of the season and will be subject to change from one week to the next, depending on how players perform. Having relatively long odds one week does not mean they’ll be long the following week.

It all depends on how everybody plays.

Nfl Most Receiving Yards Predictions

Most Receiving Yards 2024: Week 14 Standouts

Let’s take a closer look at a few of the standout performers from Week 14 (odds via BetRivers):

Ja’Marr Chase, WR, Cincinnati Bengals (-715) at BetRivers

  • 14 receptions for 177 yards and 2 touchdowns

Chase may not be the primary beneficiary every time Joe Burrow goes off for 300+ yards. But he will likely get enough work, even if he doesn’t blow up against anyone else for the rest of the season, to remain in the lead.

Puka Nacua, WR, Los Angeles Rams N/A

  • 12 receptions for 162 yards and 1 touchdown

It’s a shame he got hurt early in the year and missed so much time. With how much the Rams like to throw the ball, Nacua and/or Cooper Kupp could give Chase a run for his money. But it would take a minor miracle for him to make up the ground; hence, there are no sportsbooks that have odds for Nacua to be the receiving champ.

George Kittle, TE, San Franisco 49ers N/A

  • 6 receptions for 151 yards

Kittle is one of the best tight ends in the business, but he just doesn’t play a big enough part of the 49ers offense to have even a remote chance at this.

Darnell Mooney, WR, Atlanta Falcons  (+7500) at Caesars

  • 6 receptions for 142 yards

If Cousins had been ready from Day One, then maybe Mooney could have been a contender for this market. But Cousins has been inconsistent this season. But it would take Chase and Jefferson not playing the rest of the way for him to have a shot.

Jordan Addison, WR, Minnesota Vikings N/A

  • 8 receptions for 133 yards and three touchdowns

What we’ve seen from Addison in two of the last three weeks has been impressive (8 receptions for 162 yards and a touchdown vs. the Bears). But if anything, he may impact Jefferson’s slim chance of overtaking Chase by taking touches away from him.

Receiving Yards Leader for the 2024 NFL Season - My Picks

Favorite - Ja’Marr Chase (-715) at BetRivers

How can I not say Chase at this point in the season? Joe Burrow is putting up some crazy numbers against teams other than the Baltimore Ravens. While Chase may not always be the main beneficiary, he’ll likely do enough down the stretch to remain in front.

Dark Horses / Long Shots - Jerry Jeudy (+10000) at BetRivers

Justin Jefferson may be an obvious choice since he’s the closest to Chase, but I don’t think he’ll see the ball enough to overcome Chase. Of course, for anyone to do it, Chase needs to sit out for a game or two. If he does, I like Jerry Jeudy’s chances to possibly overtake Chase for the lead.

Over the last four weeks, Jeudy has led the NFL in receiving yards with 528. Puka Nacua has the second most at 458; Bowers had the fourth highest with 353. Chase had 338 yards.

Of all the quarterbacks in the NFL, Jameis Winston may have the best shot at going off down the stretch and posting some ridiculous numbers. If he were to do so, Jeudy would probably be his primary target.

How to Read NFL Most Receiving Yards Odds

Most receiving yards is a futures market. The Odds for each player will consist of a three-digit number preceded by either a + or a – sign. If the odds have a + sign, the odds indicate how much a bettor can win with a $100 wager. But if there’s a – sign, bettors must risk the listed number to win $100.

Let’s review a couple of examples:

  • CeeDee Lamb has +900 odds entering the 2024 NFL season. If bettors were to put $100 on him before Week 1, and he goes on to lead the league in receiving yards, they’ll win $900.

  •  Wait until Week 16 when he has a nice lead on the rest of his field and has become the betting favorite at -250. Bettors will need to risk $250 to win $100.
