The Jacksonville Jaguars head to New Orleans to take on the Saints on Thursday Night Football.

Trevor Lawrence is questionable for the game, so if you want to stay away from the spread, I have a few touchdown bets we can wager on instead.

Now, let's talk touchdowns.

Anytime TD bets for Jaguars vs. Saints

  • Travis Etienne Anytime TD (+104)
  • Evan Engram Anytime TD (+290)
  • Jaguars Defense Anytime TD (+1000)

Travis Etienne Anytime TD (+104)

Whether Trevor Lawrence plays through his injury or the Jaguars play a backup quarterback, Travis Etienne is likely going to have a heavier load on Thursday night. He already has five touchdowns on the season, and he's hauled in 21 receptions on the year as well so he's also a threat to score through the air.

Etienne is poised for a big night so I'm more than willing to bet on him to find the end zone at plus-money.

Evan Engram Anytime TD (+290)

No matter who is throwing the ball for the Jaguars, Evan Engram will be a top targets for the Jaguars. He leads the team in receptions with 36 and he's third in receiving yards. Yet, he somehow hasn't found the end zone. I don't think that's going to last based on the amount of targets and receptions he has seen this season.

At +290, him finding the end zone is the best value bet on the board.

Jaguars Defense Anytime TD (+1000)

The Saints have once again had turnover issues, turning the ball over an average of 1.3 times per game. Meanwhile, the Jaguars lead the entire NFL in takeaways per game, forcing 2.5 takeaways per game.

So, to me, that tells we should sprinkle a couple of dollars on a longshot bet of the Jaguars to score a defensive touchdown at the long price of +1000.
