Terry McLaurin given 5th-highest betting odds to lead NFL in receiving yards this season

Everyone in Washington has been singing the praises of wide receiver Terry McLaurin over the past several months, claiming that he is one of the best receivers in the NFL and deserving of more credit and attention.

Well, now the opportunity to put your money where your mouth is has presented itself, with McLaurin being listed with the fifth-best betting odds to finish the 2020 season with the most receiving yards in the NFL, according to BetMGM.

McLaurin is listed at +725 to finish the season atop of that list, with the players ahead of him being DK Metcalf (+225), Tyreek Hill (+250), DeAndre Hopkins (+450), and Travis Kelce (+550).

Here’s how things currently stack out as far as receiving yards go through Week 12:

  1. Metcalf: 1,039

  2. Hill: 1,021

  3. Kelce: 978

  4. Hopkins: 967

  5. McLaurin: 963

It’s going to be tough for McLaurin to surpass the four players ahead of him on that list, but we’ve seen him put up some nice games this year, and Washington’s offense has been in a groove as of late, with Alex Smith regularly making him a big part of the offense. If you think it could happen, why not put some money on it?
