Anytime Touchdown Meaning: What Is an Anytime TD Scorer Prop?

An anytime touchdown prop is a wager that a named player scores at least one touchdown at any point in a game, whether rushing, receiving or on a return. Regulation and overtime count; passing touchdowns do not count for a quarterback. If he scores one touchdown or three, the result is the same: a yes.

Anytime touchdown meaning in one example

Jonathan Taylor of the Indianapolis Colts has played eight games this season, and ESPN's game log shows a rushing touchdown in 5 of them: 2 vs Baltimore, 2 at Kansas City, 2 vs Washington, 1 vs Tennessee and 1 at Minnesota. He had none against Houston, at Pittsburgh and at Jacksonville. That adds up to 8 rushing touchdowns and no receiving touchdowns in eight games. An anytime touchdown line on him would ask one question: does he cross the goal line at least once today?

That 5 of 8 is a past result, a description of what happened, not a prediction. Colts vs Cowboys kicks off at 1:00 PM ET today, and Taylor is not on ESPN's injury report for it as of this morning.

What counts and what does not

• Counts: rushing touchdowns, receiving touchdowns, and kick, punt or interception returns for a touchdown, in regulation and overtime.
• Does not count: passing touchdowns thrown by a quarterback, and defensive touchdowns scored by the other team's players, unless the rules of the betting site say otherwise.
• Does not need: a specific number of scores. One touchdown is enough.
• If the player does not play: most betting sites void the line. Rules differ by site, so check the house rules.

How to read the price

Anytime touchdown prices are quoted in American odds. A price converts to an implied chance:

• +150 implies 40% (100 / 250).
• -150 implies 60% (150 / 250).
• +300 implies 25% (100 / 400).

To see how to convert any price, read what +150, -250 and +100 mean. The implied chance is the price, not a forecast. Compare it with how often the player has actually scored: a player with a touchdown in 5 of 8 games has scored in 62.5% of them.

How to research an anytime touchdown

• Games with a touchdown: count games, not total touchdowns. A 3-touchdown game and a 1-touchdown game each count once.
• Role near the goal line: carries and targets matter more than yards. Check the depth chart and the injury report on ESPN before anything else.
• Opponent and game script: a team expected to lead runs more late, which can mean more carries.
• Sample size: with 8 games, one big week moves the percentage a lot.
