The first week of the NFL season concludes with an AFC West battle featuring the Denver Broncos and Kansas City Chiefs. Broncos vs Chiefs is scheduled to kick off at 8:15 p.m. ET on ESPN for Monday Night Football.
For my Broncos vs Chiefs anytime touchdown picks, I'm targeting one player from each side: Courtland Sutton and Xavier Worthy.

Broncos vs Chiefs Anytime Touchdown Scorer Picks
Courtland Sutton Anytime Touchdown (+240)
I'm well aware that Jaylen Waddle is on the Broncos now, but Courtland Sutton is still the WR1 in this offense.
To go along with his seven touchdowns last season, Sutton also led the team in targets per route run and end-zone targets.
Facing a Chiefs secondary that has been completely revamped and inexperienced, I see Sutton seeing quite a few opportunities to land in the end zone here.
Pick: Courtland Sutton Anytime Touchdown (+240)
Xavier Worthy Anytime Touchdown (+310)
Yes, I know. Xavier Worthy had a disastrous season in 2025.
He only posted one touchdown over 14 games, and then Patrick Mahomes tore his ACL.
But Worthy is just too valuable for the Chiefs — they'll still scheme up some ways to get him involved, one way or another. Whether it be a deep pass or if he comes out of the backfield.
This will be a tougher matchup because the Broncos' secondary is so dominant, but if Worthy is back to playing 80% of the snaps with 70% route participation, these odds should be closer to +250.
Pick: Xavier Worthy Anytime Touchdown (+310)
