Falcons vs Packers Player Props: Best Thursday Night Football Prop Picks for Week 3

Falcons vs Packers Player Props for Week 3!

Week 3 of the 2026 NFL season kicks off with a primetime Falcons vs Packers matchup on Thursday Night Football. Picks and Parlays NFL handicapper Steve Seagrave breaks down his top NFL player props for Week 3, with Jordan Love and Kyle Pitts Sr. among the featured players for Thursday night’s matchup.

From passing yards to receiving yards, we break down the latest Falcons vs Packers player props, odds, betting lines and prop markets to identify the top opportunities as NFL Week 3 gets underway!

Thursday Night Football Player Prop #1: Jordan Love Over 226.5 Passing Yards (-114)

Jordan Love is coming off a lackluster game where he completed 16 of 29 passes for only 145 yards but he was dealing with wet conditions on the road in New York.

Now he’ll playing in the home opener at Lambeau Field against an Atlanta Falcons defense that has allowed 287 passing yards against Bryce Young and 221 passing yards against Aaron Rodgers.

The Falcons just lost their best cornerback as AJ Terrell Jr has landed on the IR due to a groin injury and they have been stout against the run while ranking top 10 in EPA allowed.

Without Josh Jacobs, the Packers are only averaging 3.3 yards per carry (29th) after holding Pittsburgh to 58 rushing yards and Carolina to 68 rushing yards.

Green Bay did just lose Jayden Reed, but they still have other solid options, and they may be forced to throw despite being favored by -4.5 points.

Thursday Night Football Player Prop #2: Kyle Pitts Sr Atlanta Falcons OVER 36.5 Receiving Yards (-112)

Kyle Pitts Sr has been nearly invisible in the first two games of the season partially due to quarterback play of Cooper Rush. Now Michael Penix Jr is set to return as starting quarterback, and Pitts cleared his respective receiving yards line in 8/9 games with him at the helm in 2025 while only falling short against the Buffalo Bills.

We have seen the Green Bay Packers play prevent defense where they double team the #1 wide receiver while covering the flats and leaving openings in the middle of the field.

Drake London will also benefit from Penix being on the field, but he will be the target of those double teams and Packers cornerback Keisean Nixon should be able to slow him down a bit.

We watched Vikings tight end TJ Hockenson have success against Atlanta in Week 1 while catching 4 passes for 36 yards and a touchdown.

Falcons offensive coordinator Tommy Rees said that he needs to do a better job getting Pitts the ball as he’s an integral part of the offense and it would be a great time to utilize a safety blanket then a short week.
