Packers vs Vikings Props #1: Jayden Reed Receptions
Back after missing a week due to injury, expect Packers WR Jayden Reed to be seeing plenty of targets from Green Bay QB Love. He’s averaging 3.9 receptions per game this season.

— IKE Packers Podcast (@IKE_Packers) December 31, 2023
The NFL props are showing that of late, Reed has upped that total. He’s gone over six receptions in each of his last two games, over his total for this game of 4.5 receptions. And he’s snared no fewer that four catches in each of the past six games.
- Packers vs Vikings Prop Picks: Jayden Reed over 4.5 receptions -130 (1 unit)
Packers vs Vikings Props #2: Ty Chandler Rushing Yards
In losing to the Lions last week, Vikings RB Ty Chandler was limited to 17 yards on the ground. He’s set with a rushing yardage total of 63.5 yards this week.

— Matt Fries (@FriesFootball) December 30, 2023
That’s a number he’s gone over just twice in 15 games this season. And with Alexander Mattison healthy and ready to return to the Minnesota RB rotation, it doesn’t bode well for Chandler’s work load.
- Packers vs Vikings Prop Picks: Ty Chandler under 63.5 rushing yards -115 (1 unit)
Packers vs Vikings Touchdown Scorer Props
| Player | Odds to Score 1st TD | Odds to Score Any TD |
|---|---|---|
| Ty Chandler (MIN) | +500 | -114 |
| Justin Jefferson (MIN) | +700 | +135 |
| Jayden Reed (GB) | +900 | +155 |
| Aaron Jones (GB) | +900 | +185 |
| Tucker Kraft (GB) | +1000 | +220 |
| Romeo Doubs (GB) | +1100 | +230 |
| AJ Dillon (GB) | +1100 | +275 |
| Alexander Mattison (MIN) | +1200 | +275 |
| Jaren Hall (MIN) | +1100 | +285 |
| Malik Heath (GB) | +1800 | +440 |
| Josh Oliver (MIN) | +1800 | +480 |
Minnesota RB Chandler owns the shortest odds in the anytime touchdown props bets for this game of -114. He’s also given the best odds of getting the game’s first TD at +500.
Packers vs Vikings Props #3: Aaron Jones Anytime Touchdown
Theoretically, it might make sense to take the price on the bigger AJ Dillon (+275) to be the Green Bay Bay RB to find the end zone in this game. However, the underlying numbers are suggesting that Aaron Jones is the go-to back for the Packers when they’re sniffing the goal line.
In last week’s win over Carolina, Jones had eight red zone carries. In games in which he’s been on the field for at least 40% of Green Bay’s offensive snaps, Jones has garnered a 58.7% red zone rushing share. He also gets 16.7% of their red zone targets.
