We asked our Props analyst, Justin Bales, to come up with his best NFL ladder bet for Week 6 TNF.

If you’re not familiar with this kind of play, a ladder bet is essentially betting on a prop at multiple lines with the odds getting progressively larger the further up the ladder you go.

We’ve done the research for you here and below we’ll dive into all of the rationale for our best NFL ladder bet for Week 6 TNF.

Kenneth Walker Receiving Yards Ladder

Walker’s a good receiver out of the backfield, and he’s found quite a bit of success this season. In 2024, he posted 13 receptions for 99 yards on 16 targets through 3 games. He’s better than those numbers suggest, though. 

Walker ran only 14 routes in Week 1 against the Denver Broncos. Unsurprisingly, that was his worst game of the season, posting only 6 yards on 2 receptions (3 targets). 

Since returning from injury, Walker’s run 30+ routes in his two games. He’s recorded 36+ yards in both games, and he’s coming off of his best game of the season, posting 57 yards on 7 receptions (8 targets) against the New York Giants. 

Walker gets an interesting matchup against the San Francisco 49ers on Thursday night. They’ve struggled to defend running backs out of the backfield, allowing the eighth-most receiving yards (41.4) per game to that position. 

We’ve seen San Francisco give up a few massive games through the air to opposing running backs. Some include Breece Hall (39 yards), Aaron Jones (36), Kyren Williams (27), and Antonio Gibson (67). 

It’s clear that Walker is locked into a massive role for Seattle, and he’s been given a plethora of opportunities recently. I’m expecting that to continue this week, and we could get another game where Seattle’s star running back sees nearly double-digit targets.
