Get ready, Bengals fans, Joe Burrow is officially making his return to the field tonight! A battle in the AFC North, the Baltimore Ravens (6-5, 3-3 home) will host the Cincinnati Bengals (3-8, 1-4 away) at home.

While Burrow makes his triumphant return, is it too late for the Bengals? With just three wins on the season, they get a tough divisional matchup on the road today. While football and the NFL is a Thanksgiving staple, maybe tonight is the night Burrow and company make a statement!

Tonight, we get a taste of two prime-time quarterbacks: Joe Burrow vs. Lamar Jackson. While the Bengals aren't new to Thursday night football, they've played on Thanksgiving just once. 0-1 on Thanksgiving Day, the Ravens are 2-0.

The Lions may hold the record for the most Thanksgiving games; however, tonight's matchup should be pure cinema. Following a three-game skid, the Ravens are back on top of the division as they aim for their sixth straight win. As for the Bengals, the stakes are high given they are riding a four-game losing streak. In fact, they have just two wins over the last 10 games! Without Burrow, they held a 1-8 record.

Thanksgiving Thursday Night Football: Bengals vs Ravens

Seven-point underdogs, not only do the Bengals get a tough test on the road, but they've dropped four straight against the Ravens since 2023. With their last victory against Baltimore coming in January 2023, Burrow's return is badly needed. The downside? Tee Higgins, Jermaine Burton, and Trey Hendrickson are all out Thursday night. For the Ravens, their second and third-string defense is banged up.

With six weeks left, every game is crucial for the Ravens, who are neck-and-neck with the Pittsburgh Steelers for the division crown. With a 36-26 record all-time against the Bengals, Cincinnati is all but eliminated from the playoffs. It would take a miracle—and some luck–to climb their way back.

Last time these quarterbacks matched up, Lamar Jackson recorded four touchdowns, and the Ravens defeated the Bengals, 35-34. While Baltimore's defense has vastly improved over the last six weeks, the books are predicting a shootout. In fact, the over/under total is set at 51.5 points!

While they haven't won a Super Bowl since 2013, the Ravens have the seventh-best odds to win Super Bowl LX (+1200). On the flip side, the Bengals have the 12th-worst odds to raise the Lombardi Trophy (+40000).

NFL Thanksgiving Predictions for Thursday, November 27 Week 13: Bengals vs Ravens

• Derrick Henry OVER 17.5 Rush Attempts (-128 FanDuel)
• Chase Brown OVER 20.5 Receiving Yards (-125 Fanatics)
• Ja'Marr Chase OVER 7.5 Receptions (-136 FanDuel)

NFL Player Prop Bets Tonight: Derrick Henry

2025-2026 Season Stats

GP: 11 | Carries: 187 | Rush Yards: 871 | Rush Avg.: 4.7 | Rush TD: 9 | Rush long: 59 |REC: 13 | Targets: 17 | Receiving Yards: 98 | Rec Avg.: 7.5| Receiving TD: 0 | Receiving long: 19

• OVER 17.5 Rush Attempts (-128 FanDuel)

For my first Thanksgiving bet on Thursday night, I placed one unit on Ravens running back Derrick Henry to record over 17.5 rushing attempts.

I veered from Henry's rushing props (90.5), given he's soared over that line just three times this season.

It's the Cincinnati Bengals; we know the defense is less than stellar. We are talking about a team that ranks No. 32 (dead last) in defensive rush DVOA and defensive DVOA.

Even with Burrow back, Cincinnati should be able to produce offense to keep the defense off the field. However, they can't stop the run even if they tried.

Why Derrick Henry Can Feast Against The Bengals on Thanksgiving

I really like Henry for rushing attempts today. The Bengals haven't allowed 100+ rushing yards in a month, although Henry should be productive on the ground today. Under head coach John Harbaugh, I know the Ravens will have a strong plan involving the rush attack tonight. We are talking about a team that rushes for nearly 45 percent of plays!

Respectfully, King Henry has had a tumultuous and unpredictable season from a betting perspective. Rushing for 103 yards two weeks ago against the Cleveland Browns, one thing is for certain. Henry remains the No. 1 workhorse back, especially with Justice Hill out for tonight's clash. Playing 56 percent of snaps last week, he's averaging 17 carries per game!

In fact, he's coming off 21 carries last week against the Jets, and ranked fourth among all NFL running backs in total attempts (187).

I'm not knocking Henry; 871 rushing yards through 11 games is respectable. Even if the production hasn't been there, the attempts have.

Aforementioned, the Ravens get a prime matchup against a Bengals team that's allowed Breece Hall (133), Josh Jacobs (93), J.K. Dobbins (101), and Jordan Mason (116) to soar over 100+ rushing yards. And this season, we've only seen Hall and Jacobs record 18+ rushing attempts.

Final Bengals vs Ravens NFL Thanksgiving Betting Prediction: Derrick Henry OVER 17.5 Rush Attempts (-128 FanDuel)

Overall, Henry is averaging 16.9 rushing attempts per game over the last 10 games, and has cleared this line in six straight games! All while fighting for yardage behind a collapsible offensive line.

• I'm taking Derrick Henry to record over 17.5 rush attempts Thursday night. Several running backs have feasted against the Bengals, and now it's Henry's turn. Plus, Cincinnati is allowing the second-most rushing attempts per game.

NFL Player Prop Bets Tonight: Chase Brown

2025-2026 Season Stats

GP: 11| Carries: 145 | Rush Yards: 626 | Rush Avg.: 4.3 | Rush TD: 2 | Rush long: 37 |REC: 41 | Targets: 57 | Receiving Yards: 252| Rec Avg.: 6.1 | Receiving TD: 1 | Receiving long: 21

• OVER 20.5 Receiving Yards (-125 Fanatics)

For my second Thanksgiving bet for Thursday night, I placed one unit on Bengals running back Chase Brown to record over 20.5 receiving yards.

It's been a frustrating year for fantasy football owners and bettors. Brown was predicted to have a breakout year, yet he has tallied just 626 rushing yards for two touchdowns.

Chase is averaging just north of 56 rushing yards per game. With that said, I chose to avoid rushing props and focus on where I think he will succeed. With Joe Burrow back in business, I'm expecting Brown to be heavily involved in the passing game.

Are the Sportsbooks Sleeping On This Player Prop line?

Brown won't torch the Ravens' secondary for 100+ yards, but he's averaging 23 receiving yards per game. Tallying 16 receptions over the last three games, Brown put up a season-high 75 receiving yards against the Bears just three weeks ago.

Not only do the Bengals get their star player back in the saddle, but Brown has also crushed this player prop line in four straight games.

I like this prop even more now that wide receiver Tee Higgins has been ruled out for tonight's matchup. While the Ravens' defense has improved over the weeks, they still allows the sixth-most receiving yards to running backs. This is especially evident since Breece Hall (75), Aaron Jones (22), De'Von Achane (39), D'Andre Swift (26), and Kyren Williams (37) all crushed this line as of late.

Final Bengals vs Ravens NFL Thanksgiving Betting Prediction: Chase Brown OVER 17.5 Rush Attempts (-125 Fanatics)

I do think the books are sleeping on this line, and Brown now has a prime matchup against the Ravens. With that, he's averaging 6.0 yards after the catch and hauling in over 14 percent of team targets.

With that said, I'm expecting an increase in overall production, as Chase sits third behind Ja'Marr Chase and Tee Higgins with 57 targets this season. In fact, he's SECOND on the Bengals with 41 total receptions on the season!

• I'm taking Chase Brown to record over 17.5 receiving yards tonight. He's averaging over 17 touches over the last three weeks, in addition to 120+ yards. Overall, the Ravens allowed all but two running backs to clear this prop. Look for Burrow and Brown to establish a connection in the backfield. 

NFL Player Prop Bets Tonight: Ja'Marr Chase

2025-2026 Season Stats

GP: 10 | REC: 79 | TGTS: 117 | Receiving Yards: 861 | AVG: 10.9 | TD: 5 | Long: 64

• OVER 7.5 Receptions (-136 FanDuel)

For my third Thanksgiving prop bet for tonight, I placed one unit on Bengals star receiver Ja'Marr Chase to record over 7.5 receptions.

If you've been following my bets, I rarely bet on receptions; however, this seems like a no-brainer to me.

Chase is the No.1 receiver in Cincinnati and is back from suspension. Plus, he's the last man standing now that Tee Higgins will miss tonight's clash due to concussion protocol.

Once again, Chase leads the Bengals in receptions (79), targets (117), and receiving yards (861), and now he gets his star quarterback back! All hail Joe Burrow, there's hope at last for Bengals fans!

Ja'Marr Chase Is The Clear WR1 in Cincinnati, Higgins Out

Chase has managed to stay alive, even with Joe Flacco at the helm. Not only has he eclipsed 100+ receiving yards in four games this season, but he's also tallied 21 receptions over the last three weeks!

We've seen an uptick in targets, too, as Chase has been targeted 23, 19, 8, and 10 times over the last four games. Ranking third among NFL receivers in total receptions (79), he's in the top five in terms of receiving yards (861). Imagine that—all without his quarterback!

Aforementioned, the Ravens' defense has improved, but they allow the 10th most yards to receivers. This season, Chase is averaging 7.9 receptions per game on 11.7 targets. We've even seen him grab 12, 16, and 10 this season against the Jets, Steelers, and Packers.

Mind you, Higgins was active for all three games.

Overall, the Ravens give up just over 5 receptions per game to WR1s this season, but Chase should have a field day against Nate Wiggins/ Marlon Humphrey.

Final Bengals vs Ravens NFL Thanksgiving Betting Prediction: Ja'Marr Chase OVER 7.5 Receptions (-136 FanDuel)

• I'm taking Ja'Marr Chase to record over 7.5 receptions. He's back to a WR1 status, and is the clear No.1 option without Higgins. I think this line should be set a 9 or higher.
