Parris Campbell over 39.0 Receiving Yards (-110)
Look for Parris Campbell to get lots of opportunities out of the slot for the Colts this weekend. With the Eagles projected as heavy favorites, I’d expect the Colts to play from behind for most of the game which should yield lots of Matt Ryan pass attempts.
In the last three games that Ryan has started, Campbell has been his favorite target.
Here are his numbers with Matt Ryan under center:

Although Philly has an excellent pass defense, I think it is predicated around its shut down corners on the outside, Darius Slay and James Bradberry. The Eagles will be without their best slot corner as Avonte Maddox has been placed on IR. I think Slay/Bradberry will be able to eliminate Michael Pittman on the outside, but Ryan will likely target Campbell quite often over the middle of the field.
I think a 6 catch, 50-yard performance is well within reach for Campbell.
Best of Luck!
