Jahnke: Best 2022 Week 6 NFL player props bets

Christian McCaffrey’s changing role: The Carolina Panthers running back has been catching more passes while running the ball less, which hurts will hurt his rushing total against a strong Los Angeles Rams defense.
Diontae Johnson’s decreasing targets: The Pittsburgh Steelers‘ quarterback change has led to fewer targets for Johnson, and now, he faces a defense that will further limit his targets.
George Kittle’s slow start continues: Kittle hasn’t been a large part of the San Francisco 49ers‘ passing game this season, and it likely won’t need him against the Atlanta Falcons.
2022 record: 8-7.
