Stars walking the NFL Honors red carpet make their picks on popular Super Bowl prop bets

• Super Bowl LVII is here, which means it's time to make some prop bets.
• On the red carpet of Thursday's NFL Honors, Insider asked several attendees to pick their props.

PHOENIX — Super Bowl Sunday is almost here, meaning it's time to get some bets in on the big game.

While gambling (responsibly) can be a fun time all NFL season, the Super Bowl presents a new adventure, with wild prop bets available for action.

Insider was on the red carpet ahead of NFL Honors on Thursday night and asked some attendees for their picks on two of the most important props out there.

Which player will score the first touchdown?

A lot of factors go into picking a player to score the opening touchdown on Sunday. Which team is going to get the ball first? Will the first score come near the end zone, or on a big play that opens up downfield? Is Jalen Hurts going to just QB sneak it at the goal line or will the Eagles throw a feint?

Here's a look at some of the favorites as things stand heading into Sunday.

Travis Kelce is the favorite at +650, meaning a $100 bet on Kelce to score first would payout for $650 in winning if it cashed.

Just behind him is Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts. It should be noted that for the purposes of these bets, the win goes to the player that crosses the plane or makes the reception in the end zone, meaning a bet on a quarterback is a bet that he will either run in or receive the first touchdown — throwing it doesn't count.

The two favorites have rightfully earned their spots, and were the most popular picks on the red carpet.

"Either Hurts on a QB sneak on the goal line, or Travis Kelce red zone TD," Houston Texans running back Dameon Pierce told Insider.

Bengals defensive end Sam Hubbard was another vote for Kelce, as was Baltimore Ravens safety Chuck Clark, though he asked to hedge a bit.

"I really want to give you two answers. I would say either Kelce or Miles Sanders," Clark said.

The stars walking the red carpet aren't the only ones believing that Kelce will be the first to find paydirt. Right now, a first touchdown from Kelce presents a slight liability to some of the sportsbooks, including BetMGM.

"We want under 50 points and Travis Kelce not to score the first touchdown," BetMGM CEO Adam Greenblatt told Insider in an interview on Friday.

Back on the red carpet, Hall of Famer Tony Dorsett gave the best answer of the night when asked who he thought would score the first touchdown.

"Oh, I have no idea!" Dorsett said, but before he could finish speaking, his wife had jumped in to put their money behind Kelce as well.

Outside of Kelce, just two other Chiefs players received votes.

"I would say either Jalen, or the Chiefs running back, number 10," Tyler Lockett told Insider, referring to Isaiah Pacheco. "He's been scoring a lot."

"Let's go with JuJu Smith-Schuster," commentator Mike Tirico told Insider, adding, "If somebody's going to bet that, then I want a share."

Duly noted, Mike, please drop your Venmo once JuJu finds the end zone, and I will happily oblige.

What song will Rihanna open with?

It's possible that there's even more anticipation for Rihanna's halftime show than there is for the big game.

What will her first song be when she takes the stage? The odds are pretty tight.

On the red carpet, answers were all over the place, but the most common response was nearly universal. Most players looked to their wife or girlfriend with a face that asked, "Babe, what's the name of that Rihanna song I like?"

Lockett's pick to open was "Pon de Replay," but said he was most excited for "Bitch Better Have My Money," although he refrained from using the swear in polite company.

Pierce went with "Run This Town," while Hubbard and Clark both picked "Umbrella," which at +700, currently feels like pretty solid odds.

"You're asking the wrong person," Tirico said when the topic of Rihanna came up. "I'm more interested in the studio show at halftime than the concert. Is that wrong? It's what I do for a living."

But once again, it was Dorsett with the best answer of the night.

We'll let him tell you.

No matter who you pick to score the first touchdown or what song you pick to open Rihanna's halftime show, please remember to bet responsibly.
