The Jacksonville Jaguars took care of business against the Indianapolis Colts in Week 1, beating them by a final score of 31-21.

Now, they'll have their biggest challenge of the season when they take on the defending champs, the Kansas City Chiefs.

Best anytime TD picks for Chiefs vs. Jaguars

  • Travis Etienne anytime TD (+119)
  • Christian Kirk anytime TD (+200)
  • Evan Engram anytime TD (+250)

Travis Etienne Anytime TD (+119)

Travis Etienne looked fantastic in Week 1 against the Colts. He ran for 77 yards on 18 carries, including a touchdown. He also added on five receptions for 27 yards. A good portion of the offense revolves around Etienne this year, so as long as sportsbooks are offering plus-money for him to score a touchdown, I'm going to bet on him.

Christian Kirk anytime TD (+200)

Christian Kirk took a back seat to Calvin Ridley in Week 1, catching just one pass for nine yards. I don't think that's going to be a regular occurrence this season, so now is a good time to underreact to his Week 1 performance and bet on him to bounce back big in Week 2.

Let's not forget this guy scored eight touchdowns last season.

Evan Engram anytime TD (+250)

Evan Engram has a solid performance against the Colts, bringing in all five of his targets for 49 yards. He's serving as a safety blanket for Trevor Lawrence and the more snaps the Jaguars have in the red zone, the better change Engram has of scoring a touchdown.

As their only option at tight end, I'm surprised we're able to get +250 odds on him to score a touchdown.
