The Action Network Sports Betting Podcast on Nate Becker

Becker's blocking role and Bengals' tight-end TD vulnerability make 12-to-1 touchdown odds attractive.

Becker, a second-round Nebraska blocking tight end, has been effective in Jacksonville's heavy two-tight-end sets, improving the run game; he's played significant snaps despite one catch in his NFL career. The Bengals allowed 16 tight-end touchdowns last year (most in the league), including to blocking tight ends like Josh Oliver, Brock Wright, Darnell Washington, and Jackson Haas—Becker's archetype. With Jacksonville's offensive line concerns against Cincinnati's improved defensive line, Becker will be on the field blocking, creating a touchdown opportunity at 12-to-1 odds at DraftKings; the source also targets first touchdown at 65-to-1.
