The Tennessee Titans shocked the football world last weekend, upsetting the New England Patriots in Foxborough, 20-13. Tennessee will face another tough test in the Divisional Round though, as the Titans take on the 14-2 Baltimore Ravens. Baltimore is currently a 9.5-point favorite in this one, according to FanDuel Sportsbook.

If you're looking for an alternative way to wager on the Divisional Round, here are three players with a chance to be the first touchdown scorer come Saturday.

1. Lamar Jackson, QB, Baltimore Ravens (+600)

Lamar Jackson seemingly can't be stopped this season, accounting for a combined 43 TDs in 15 games played. His seven rushing touchdowns tied him for the second most among all quarterbacks, and he's handled 26 carries inside the red zone, suggesting Baltimore doesn't shy away from using him in high-leverage situations. With Mark Ingram's status for this one still up in the air, Jackson might even handle a heavier rushing workload than normal, so he certainly has a chance to find the end zone early on.

2. Derrick Henry, RB, Tennessee Titans (+600)

When you think of a power running back, Derrick Henry is likely the first person that comes to mind. The 6-foot-3-inch, 238-pound RB decimated the Patriots' front seven last week, rushing for 182 yards and a TD on 34 attempts. Henry scored 12 total touchdowns across his last seven regular season games, and he's averaging a ludicrous 33.0 carries per game across his last two outings. If Tennessee is moving the ball early, Henry certainly has a chance to seal off the drive with a score.

3. Mark Andrews, TE, Baltimore Ravens (+700)

Mark Andrews was flat-out dominant in his second NFL season, catching 10 touchdowns. That was the best mark among all tight ends, and only one fewer than the league leader in receiving TDs, Kenny Golladay. Andrews also led all Baltimore receivers in red zone targets (14), and he likely has the best chance among all Ravens' pass-catchers to come away with an early score.
