NFL Week 5 public betting: Anthony Richardson injury opens the door for Jaguars' first win
The only winless team remaining in the 2024 NFL season is the Jacksonville Jaguars, but the betting public expects that to change Sunday.
A large majority of money bet on Jacksonville’s divisional matchup against the Indianapolis Colts favors the Jaguars to not only win, but also cover the spread, which is up to -3.5 at BetMGM.
Injuries are likely playing a factor in the public’s lack of confidence in the road Colts, as quarterback Anthony Richardson and center Ryan Kelly are both doubtful to play and running back Jonathan Taylor is out, among other injuries.
Regardless, Jacksonville’s first win won’t likely be easy. Joe Flacco delivered a win for the Colts in relief of Richardson in Week 4. Here’s a look at the splits for that game and the others in Week 3, with odds from BetMGM.
