Ravens wide receiver Nelson Agholor can make a little extra money depending on his performance in the Ravens' final regular season game Saturday.
Agholor can earn a $250,000 bones if he nets 58 receiving yards against the Steelers. He could also earn another $250,000 with 10 more receptions.
DraftKings has his receiving prop listed at 37.5 — it opened at 35.5 — but his alternate receiving prop of 60-plus yards, which would get him over the line for one of his bonuses is listed at +225 odds. Agholor is averaging 1.9 catches and 21.4 yards per game this season, but will likely see more targets with the Ravens resting both Zay Flowers and Odell Beckham Jr. against the Steelers. He has topped 58 yards twice this season with 63-yard and 64-yard games.
Those targets won't be coming from NFL MVP favorite Lamar Jackson, who is also resting tonight. Instead, Ravens will have Tyler Huntley quarterback under center. The other factor Agholor will have to overcome is weather.
As Action writer PJ Walsh noted in his NFL weather report, the Ravens and Steelers will be facing off under awful conditions.
Saturday's NFL weather forecast for Steelers vs. Ravens shows rain and snow, with the potential for sleet, from 1-4 p.m. ET.
However, at that point the precipitation, which shows between a 95-100% chance from 4-8 p.m. ET, is expected to transition over to solely rain, but this timing is incredibly specific.
Are there scenarios where the wintry weather conditions move a bit early or later in the day? Absolutely.
But perhaps more importantly for NFL bettors is that steady double-digit winds are in the forecast as well.
Starting at 4 p.m. ET, there are 14 mph breezes expected in Baltimore, which should calm down to 10 mph by 8 p.m. ET, though it appears they will remain in that double-digit range for the entirety of Saturday's Steelers vs. Ravens matchup.
And as we know from Sports Insights' Bet Labs software, NFL games historically trend toward the under once winds reach 10 mph and above.
Action Network's prop projections have Agholor slated to go under his total, but that $250K bonus should provide plenty of motivation despite all the hurdles.
