It’s no secret that Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen has been slumping a bit lately. But that’s no reason to doubt that he’ll feast on Thanksgiving, which is why Allen is the focus of my NFL player props spotlight this week.
Allen can throw. He can run. And he’ll likely do plenty of both against a Detroit Lions team that will still be overmatched on Thursday, despite their better play as of late.
While Detroit has improved on offense, it still boasts one of the worst defenses in the league. The Lions are 28th against the pass (262.2 yards per game), 31st against the run (153.7), and dead last in terms of points allowed (28.2).

For this article, I’m focusing entirely on Josh Allen’s props and what kinds of numbers the Buffalo quarterback might put up against Detroit.
That’s enough of the appetizers. Let’s dig into the turkey and save some room for pumpkin pie with my free NFL picks for the first game of Thanksgiving Day.
