Here are my best Packers vs Lions player prop bets for today’s matchup, while you can also get our expert NFL picks for every Thanksgiving game today, including our full Packers vs Lions predictions.

Best Packers vs Lions player prop bet: Jordan Love (GB) over 9.5 rushing yards (-118)
Odds available at DraftKings Sportsbook at time of publishing.
The Packers do not call a whole lot of designed runs for their quarterback, but Love will probably be under duress a fair amount on Thursday – forcing him to improvise. It would be no surprise if he is forced to tuck it and run more than a few times in this matchup against Aidan Hutchinson and a Detroit defense that ranks 8th in the NFL with 32 sacks (Hutchinson has 8.5). The Lions have faced the second-most QB rushing attempts in the entire league (63), which have turned into 212 yards. Love has recorded double-digit rushing yards in 7 of the last 10 outings. Against Detroit, he produced a 23-yard performance last season and a 39-yard effort during the 2023 campaign.
