After a disappointing road game in Week 8, rookie quarterback C.J. Stroud is back on his home turf with the Houston Texans. We anticipate a strong comeback in our Week 9 Buccaneers vs. Texans NFL player prop predictions, taking advantage of the best NFL odds on offer.

Led by first-year head coach DeMeco Ryans, the Houston Texans have displayed potential this season and have a chance to reach a .500 record with a win on Sunday. On the other hand, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers have suffered a three-game losing streak but could also reach a .500 record with a victory.

Both teams are competing for a wild-card spot this season, with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers having an advantage thanks to wide receiver Mike Evans. Evans is on track to reach his 10th straight season with over 1,000 receiving yards, showcasing his consistent performance since joining the NFL and proving to be a valuable asset for the Buccaneers.

Here are our top Tampa Bay Buccaneers vs. Houston Texans NFL player props for Week 9, in addition to our NFL predictions and best bets. These player props are based on odds from our recommended NFL betting sites, with confidence ratings on a 1-to-5-star scale.

Buccaneers vs. Texans NFL player props: Week 9

Mike Evans anytime touchdown scorer (+170 via Caesars) ⭐⭐⭐⭐

Mike Evans has scored a touchdown in all but two games for the Buccaneers this season, with four touchdowns coming against press coverage, the second-most in the league. Although Evans has surpassed 53.5 receiving yards four times this year, the Texans have a strong pass defense, allowing only 236.1 passing yards per game. Given the tough matchup, it may be wiser to bet on Baker Mayfield’s top target scoring a touchdown rather than hitting the receiving yards total.

C.J. Stroud Over 236.5 passing yards (-114 via FanDuel) ⭐⭐⭐

The Buccaneers rank fifth-worst in the league in passing defense, giving up 256 yards per game. Last week, C.J. Stroud threw for only 140 yards, his lowest total in seven NFL games and his second consecutive game with less than 200 passing yards. Prior to those two games, Stroud had surpassed the 200-yard mark in each of his previous games. Despite recent struggles, Stroud is averaging 257.1 passing yards per game this season, which is significantly higher than the Buccaneers’ average.

Chase McLaughlin Over 1.5 field goals (+118 via Caesars) ⭐⭐⭐

This matchup features two evenly matched 3-4 teams, making it likely to be a close game. Both teams will be aiming to score as many points as possible to gain an edge over their opponent. The game will be played indoors, favoring the kickers. Chase McLaughlin has only missed multiple field goals in two games this season, including three successful kicks from beyond 50 yards. Baker Mayfield has been sacked three times in each of his last two games, potentially impacting scoring opportunities deep in Texans territory. This could influence the decision between going for a touchdown or settling for a field goal.

Player props for the Buccaneers vs. Texans game were set on Friday at 6:55 a.m. ET.
