We picked out three touchdown scorers from five bets in last Sunday's column and have five more for the Week 3 slate.
Sunday's NFL Week 3 slate offers several interesting opportunities in the Anytime Touchdown Scorer market, with our five selections ranging from established elite receivers to a tight end available at nearly 3/1.
Dalton Kincaid and Jaxon Smith-Njigba lead our picks after excellent starts to the new season, while Chris Olave and Ja'Marr Chase are backed to continue their strong receiving roles. Dallas Cowboys tight end Jake Ferguson completes the five at a bigger price.
Dalton Kincaid vs Los Angeles Chargers (1pt)
Best odds of 19/10 with 10bet when publishing.
Dalton Kincaid Anytime Touchdown Scorer at 19/10 is our favourite value play from Sunday's touchdown markets.
Kincaid's role in Buffalo's passing attack has increased significantly this season, with the tight end producing 12 receptions for 225 yards from 14 targets through two games. He followed five catches for 130 yards against Houston with seven receptions for 95 yards and a touchdown in Buffalo's 41-31 victory over Detroit.
That builds on a promising scoring record from last season, when Kincaid managed five touchdowns despite appearing in only 12 regular-season games. His red-zone involvement remains particularly encouraging, while he has quickly become one of Josh Allen's most frequently targeted receivers in 2026.
The matchup also offers encouragement. Arizona tight end Trey McBride caught nine passes for 95 yards and a touchdown against the Chargers in Week 1, while Los Angeles have conceded over 260 passing yards per game through their opening two matches.
Buffalo have scored 36 and 41 points already this season and enter Sunday with one of the highest implied team totals on the slate. With Kincaid playing an increasingly prominent receiving role, 19/10 looks generous for him to make it back-to-back games with a touchdown.
Jaxon Smith-Njigba vs Washington Commanders (1pt)
Best odds of 1/1 with multiple bookmakers when publishing.
Few players have started the season as explosively as Jaxon Smith-Njigba, who looks worth backing at Evens against a struggling Washington pass defence.
Smith-Njigba has amassed 17 receptions, 277 receiving yards and four touchdowns from 22 targets through Seattle's first two games. After opening with eight catches for 122 yards and a touchdown against New England, he exploded for 155 yards and three scores against Arizona.
Those touchdowns came from 82, seven and 12 yards, illustrating why JSN is so difficult to contain. He possesses the explosiveness to score from anywhere on the field while also accounting for a substantial share of Seattle's opportunities around the end zone.
Washington have meanwhile conceded seven passing touchdowns in only two games. Dallas Goedert scored twice against the Commanders in Week 1 before CeeDee Lamb recorded 153 yards and two touchdowns against them last Sunday.
With Sam Darnold also set to return under centre for Seattle, Smith-Njigba has an excellent opportunity to extend his scoring run against one of the NFL's more vulnerable early-season secondaries.
Chris Olave vs Las Vegas Raiders (1pt)
Best odds of 6/4 with Sky Bet / Paddy Power when publishing.
Chris Olave at 6/4 appeals because of the sheer volume of opportunities he is receiving in New Orleans' passing game.
The Saints receiver has already accumulated 18 receptions for 268 yards from 23 targets this season. He opened with a career-high 10 catches for 182 yards against Detroit before adding eight receptions for 86 yards and a touchdown in last week's victory over Baltimore.
His touchdown production also extends much further back than last weekend. Olave scored nine receiving touchdowns in 2025 and has now found the end zone in six of his last 10 appearances.
His red-zone usage backs up that improvement. Olave drew 13 targets from inside the opposition's 20-yard line last season and converted five into touchdowns, establishing himself as more than simply a yardage-heavy receiver.
Las Vegas have defended well through their opening two matches, so this isn't the easiest matchup among our five selections. However, Olave's 11.5 targets per game provide repeated opportunities, and 6/4 only requires him to score 40% of the time to justify the price.
Jake Ferguson vs Baltimore Ravens (1pt)
Best odds of 14/5 with bet365 when publishing.
For those looking for a bigger price, Jake Ferguson Anytime Touchdown Scorer at 14/5 stands out in what could be one of Sunday's highest-scoring games.
Ferguson caught four passes for 43 yards and two touchdowns against Washington last weekend, once again demonstrating the trust Dak Prescott places in his tight end when Dallas approach the goal line.
That role was already evident throughout 2025. Ferguson finished with eight receiving touchdowns, with seven coming from inside the opposition's 20-yard line. He drew 23 red-zone targets across the season, while six of his eight catches from inside the 10 resulted in touchdowns.
Baltimore have already conceded a touchdown to an opposing tight end this season, with Indianapolis rookie Tyler Warren scoring against them in Week 1 before Juwan Johnson recorded 66 receiving yards for New Orleans last weekend.
The Ravens-Cowboys matchup also carries one of Sunday's highest projected totals, giving Dallas plenty of potential scoring opportunities. CeeDee Lamb and Dallas' running backs naturally provide competition, but 14/5 looks a big enough price for a player with Ferguson's established goal-line role.
Ja'Marr Chase vs Pittsburgh Steelers (1pt)
Our final selection is Ja'Marr Chase at 5/4, with Cincinnati's superstar receiver coming off a two-touchdown performance against Houston.
Chase caught seven passes for 75 yards and two scores from nine targets last weekend, immediately bouncing back from a quiet season opener. His touchdown involvement should come as little surprise given the role he has historically occupied around the goal line.
The Bengals receiver drew 21 red-zone targets in 2025, turning seven into touchdowns. He also scored four times from only eight targets inside the opposition's 10-yard line.
There is also an impressive history against Sunday's opponent. Chase has recorded 687 receiving yards and six touchdowns across eight career appearances against Pittsburgh, including a 16-catch, 161-yard and one-touchdown performance against the Steelers last season.
Pittsburgh have been excellent defensively through their first two games, allowing only one passing touchdown, so this is perhaps the toughest matchup among our five selections. However, Chase represents by far the strongest individual receiver the Steelers have encountered so far, while uncertainty surrounding their cornerback room only strengthens his chances.
At 5/4, Chase is still available at a price that offers some room for value despite his elite scoring pedigree.
