The Minnesota Vikings will try to rebound from their first loss of the season when they visit the Los Angeles Rams on Thursday Night Football. The Sam Darnold to Justin Jefferson connection has helped power Minnesota (-2.5, 47.5) to a 5-1 start, and the two could be prominently featured in NFL prop bets. Meanwhile, Cooper Kupp (ankle) is active and will return after missing four games, further bolstering a Rams offense that has heavily relied on Matthew Stafford and Kyren Williams. Kupp and Jefferson share the same Thursday Night Football line of 6.5 receptions, according to the latest NFL props.

Jefferson has had at least seven catches just once this season, so is that a trend you can expect to continue with your NFL prop bets? His over-under for receiving yards is 86.5, while Kupp's is 67.5. Rams receiver Puka Nacua (knee) is also active. Before betting any NFL props for Thursday Night Football or entering NFL predictions on sites like PrizePicks, you need to see the Vikings vs. Rams NFL prop predictions powered by SportsLine's AI PickBot.

Top NFL player prop bets for Rams vs. Vikings

After analyzing Vikings vs. Rams props and examining the dozens of NFL player prop markets, the AI PickBot says Vikings running back Aaron Jones goes Over 71.5 rushing yards (-110 on FanDuel). Jones has faced the Rams five times in his career and gone Over 66.5 rushing yards in four of them, including last season in Week 9. He's coming off a 93-yard outing last week versus Detroit's top-five run defense, and he's had at least 93 yards in three of his last four games, with the one outlier being in Week 5 when he played in just the first quarter before leaving due to injury.

After lighting up Detroit's elite defense, Jones now gets to face the Rams' 30th-ranked run defense. L.A. has allowed at least 122 yards on the ground in every game this season, with a number of players having individual success against it. One player has eclipsed 66.5 rushing yards in each of the Rams' six games this year, including former Viking Alexander Mattison last week as he rumbled for 92 yards after averaging just 3.4 yards per carry entering that contest. SportsLine AI predicts that Jones easily hits the Over (-114), with it forecasting he finishes with 83.1 rushing yards on average. See more NFL props here.
