It’s crunch time in the NFL and that means Crimson Tide products are everywhere in Week 17.

King Henry, a.k.a. Derrick Henry, goes for a career milestone when the Titans travel to Houston while his heir apparent, Jahmyr Gibbs, continues his brilliant rookie year for the Lions in a Saturday night showdown with the Cowboys. On Sunday, the big game of the afternoon sees Tua Tagovailoa lead the Dolphins against the AFC-leading Baltimore Ravens.

We take a look at the best player props for the former Bama trio.

NFL Week 17 prop betting tips: Wager on Derrick Henry, Jahmyr Gibbs, and Tua Tagovailoa in marquee matchups

Jahmyr Gibbs over 51.5 rushing yards (-110 or better)

Gibbs is the second-best rookie rusher in the NFL, one yard behind the Falcons’ Bijan Robinson, and leads the NFL with 5.7 yards per carry.

Gibbs and the Lions are in Dallas trying to top the Cowboys’ 15-game home win streak. The Cowboys have lost two in a row, and the Dallas defense ranks No. 19 in the NFL against the run. Remember, they just allowed 266 yards to the Bills two weeks ago and 222 yards in a Week 3 loss to the Cardinals.

This is a game with huge meaning on both sides. Dallas still has a shot at the NFC East title, while the Lions are angling for the top seed in the NFC. Gibbs’ workload has increased for the Lions and Detroit’s offensive line is fantastic.

Tua Tagovailoa over 233.5 passing yards (-110 or better)

It will be quite a test for the Dolphins and Tagovailoa taking on the NFL’s top defense on the road and feeling good after what they did to the 49ers on Monday Night Football.

Tua leads the NFL in passing yards at 4,214 and has one of the top offensive threats in Tyreek Hill. But can the Dolphins find room against the Ravens’ defense? In the last three weeks, the Ravens have allowed 282 passing yards to the Rams, 258 to the Jaguars, and 308 to the Niners. Baltimore won all three games, with a lot of those yards coming when the game was decided.

Either way, this looks like a good over bet. If the Dolphins are going to win, Tua will win it with his arm. If Baltimore blows Miami out, Tua can rack up late yards against a soft defense.

Derrick Henry anytime TD against Houston (-145 or better)

The old veteran bulldozer for Tennessee may be nearing the end of his Titans career. He is set to be a free agent at the end of this season. With 28 more yards this season and one more TD, he will become only the fourth running back ever with five seasons with over 1,000 yards and 12 TDs.

You can look up who the other runners are, but one of them is another Bama great Shaun Alexander.

Henry has become an even bigger part of the Titans’ offense with Will Levis now at quarterback. He’s been a force lately at the goal line with seven TDs in his last five games. He’s also scored in seven of 13 games against Houston in his career. This sets up for a good day for King Henry.
