The Philadelphia Eagles (10-3) travel to face the Seattle Seahawks (6-7) for Week 15 Monday Night Football. No matter which team emerges victorious, history will be made as this is going to be the first game in NFL history to be flexed from a Sunday 1 p.m. slot into Monday Night Football.

Thank the New England Patriots for being so bad this year that the powers that be decided to swap out their Week 15 home matchup vs. the Kansas City Chiefs from MNF. Another thanks is owed to the level of parity in the NFL this season, which has resulted in the Seahawks (and a glut of other teams) being in the thick of the playoff hunt despite boasting sub-.500 records.

Seattle will hope that QB Geno Smith’s return from a groin injury that caused him to miss Week 14 will help them stop their four-game losing streak. In the very least, Smith’s return should result in more points being scored than the 16 they tallied during their 28-16 loss in San Francisco in Week 14. Let’s take a look at some great props for the Eagles vs. Seahawks MNF game.

MNF Eagles vs. Seahawks player prop picks: Here are our top Monday Night Football player props featuring A.J Brown, Tyler Lockett, and Jalen Hurts

  • A.J. Brown OVER receptions made
  • Tyler Lockett OVER receiving yards
  • Jalen Hurts UNDER 0.5 interceptions

A.J. Brown OVER receptions made

Things appear to have mellowed out between star WR A.J. Brown and QB Jalen Hurts after their sideline argument was filmed during a Week 2 game in September. Seeing Philadelphia wideouts bark that they want to see the ball thrown their way more is nothing new, and it appears to have worked for Brown this year as he’s notched more than six receptions in eight out of 11 games since dust-up.

Brown notched nine and eight catches in the Eagles last two games, and he is very likely to eclipse 6.5 receptions made, especially if he gets 13 targets like last week.

Tyler Lockett OVER receiving yards

The Seahawks WR was the definition of efficient during last week’s road loss in San Francisco. Playing with backup QB Drew Lock, Lockett amassed six catches for 89 yards on just six targets. Lockett is impressively averaging 10.9 YPC in his ninth NFL season, and has hit the over on this week’s receiving yard prop mark of 50.5 in three of his last five games.

The Seahawks are hopeful but unsure of Geno Smith’s health and his ability to avoid reinjuring his groin, but the fact that Lockett has shown solid chemistry with Geno and Drew Lock alike in recent weeks makes this a comfy prop to pursue.

Jalen Hurts under 0.5 interceptions

The Legion of Boom isn’t walking through the tunnel for the Seahawks anytime soon, and that’s not the only reason to consider betting that the Eagles QB will continue his excellent job taking care of the ball and limiting turnovers as of late. Hurts hasn’t thrown a pick in either of his last two games, and he’s only thrown two in his last six.

Hurts has thrown for 10 TDs and rushed for six during this span, which isn’t to say the Eagles are playing it safe offensively by any means. Philadelphia is throwing the ball deep often, and they have had a passing play of longer than 23 yards in every game since they notched that in Week 1 at New England. Hurts is taking great care of the ball, and that trend should continue in Week 15.
