Ja'Marr Chase

Chase's combination of explosive route running, contested-catch ability and chemistry with Joe Burrow makes him the most attractive conventional touchdown scorer selection in this matchup.
Cincinnati has one of the NFL's most productive offenses, averaging 29.8 points per game with a red-zone touchdown conversion rate of 68.8%. Those numbers support Chase's opportunities to find the end zone, especially with the Bengals playing at home.

Jaylen Warren

+700
Warren enters the matchup with 2 touchdowns this season and is one of Pittsburgh's primary scoring options. Although his touchdown total trails Cincinnati's top receivers, Warren benefits from the Steelers' increasingly effective rushing attack, which has become a major component of their recent four-game winning streak.
Pittsburgh ranks first in rushing EPA per handoff and second in rushing success rate since Week 5, according to Covers. The Steelers have also been controlling possession, which could become especially important against a Cincinnati offense capable of scoring quickly. A run-heavy approach would give Warren opportunities to finish drives near the goal line
He pays even odds to score a touchdown.
Tee Higgins
+120
+850
+850
Higgins has recorded 5 touchdowns this season, placing him just behind Chase among Cincinnati's leading scoring threats. Higgins provides Burrow with a different type of receiving weapon, particularly around the goal line, where his size and ability to win contested catches can create favorable matchups against defensive backs.
The Bengals' passing attack has been particularly effective recently. Burrow completed 24 of 29 passes for 271 yards and three touchdowns in his previous game, continuing a highly productive stretch. His ability to distribute the football between Chase and Higgins creates opportunities for both receivers to score in the same contest.
