Player props continue to grow in popularity, as they are an easy way for fantasy players to get accustomed to sports betting.
Player prop unders hit at a 55% rate between the 2017-2019 regular season. 2020 has seen a higher percentage of overs hit, but Week 7 was the first positive overall week for over prop bets. This is significant, as the first three weeks were all closer than expected, but this was the first full week where the majority settled over.
