The last game of the regular season should be a good one. This is essentially a playoff game, with whoever wins this contest advancing to Wild Card weekend. The Chargers are currently listed as three-point road favorites, while the total on this game sits at 49.0. That’s the highest mark of the week, so this game has some potential for scoring.
Austin Ekeler is the most expensive player on DraftKings, and he’s put together an excellent season. He’s scored at least 18.2 DraftKings points in five of his past six games, and the lone exception was a game with 16.4 DraftKings points vs. the Giants. He’s scored six touchdowns over that time, and he’s been involved as a runner and a pass-catcher out of the backfield.
