The Green Bay Packers, who haven't looked that great this season en route to a 4-1-1 start, travel to Pittsburgh to meet old friend Aaron Rodgers and the Pittsburgh Steelers.

Powered by a resurgent Rodgers, they're a little friskier than many believed when he decided to finally ink in Steel Town.

Either way, it makes for good drama on Sunday Night Football.

Check out my free Packers vs. Steelers touchdown scorer predictions and NFL picks for October 26.

Packers anytime touchdown pick

Tucker Kraft anytime touchdown (+140 at FanDuel)

This would usually be the slot where you'd take Josh Jacobs, who leads the team with eight touchdowns. There's just not too much juice at -200 odds.

Instead, we'll focus on Green Bay Packers tight end Tucker Kraft, who is finally emerging as the standout receiver he's been touted as since being drafted in 2022.

Kraft is tied for the team lead with Romeo Doubs with four receiving touchdowns on the season. As the WR group shuffles guys in and out of the lineup, Kraft has been a constant for Jordan Love.

With a touchdown catch in back-to-back games, and facing a Steelers' side that's allowed four TDs to tight ends on the season, I like the value here at +130.

DK Metcalf anytime touchdown (+150 at FanDuel)

A resurgent Aaron Rodgers – who has 14 TD passes against just five interceptions — has the team at 4-2 and contending for the AFC North title.

Landing DK Metcalf in a trade with the Seahawks has certainly helped, too.

Metcalf leads the team in catches, yards, and TDs with four on the season. Last week's loss to Cincinnati was the first time in four games he failed to find paydirt.

In two previous matchups with the Pack, DK has averaged three catches and 27.5 yards and has yet to find the endzone, but he should be prominent on Sunday Night, as Rodgers should have some motivation to light up his former team.
