Odds API by market / NFL
NFL Longest Reception API
Live player_reception_longest odds across every book that posts it, in one REST call — and, unlike any other odds API, every one of those outcomes settled against the official result once play ends.
No credit card. 1,000 requests / day on the free tier.
What NFL longest reception is
The single longest catch. Deep threats price high on this while possession receivers price low, even where the two carry near-identical receiving-yards lines.
How we settle it. Graded against the longest-play column of the receiving stat group. A player who records no catch has no figure to settle against, so the outcome voids rather than grading as zero.
Every number on this page is measured against the live API, never copied from a spec sheet. Last measured 6 October 2026.
Books posting NFL longest reception
Measured live, not listed from a spec. Coverage moves — a book that has not put its board up yet will not appear until it does, which is exactly what this list is for.
Line shopping across all of them is one request — every book arrives in the same bookmakers array, not one call per book. Add ?bookmakers= to narrow it, or use /best-line for the best price per line already ranked.
Recently settled NFL longest reception outcomes
These are real rows out of the API, not an illustration. Each one was a price on a board before the event and carries the actual figure it was graded against afterwards. No other odds API returns that last column — they stop at the price.
7,381 longest reception outcomes settled in the last 4 days across 14 books. The 12 most recent:

Over/Under split, last 4 days
The Over won 44.7% of 2969 decided longest reception lines (1326 over, 1643 under). Computed from the settled rows themselves, scoped to NFL only.
Read off 3,327 Over legs out of 7,381 settled outcomes on this market. The rest are Unders and milestone legs (“1+”, “2+”) that some books price here too, and a threshold rung is not an Over.
A few days of one market describes a few days — it is not an edge. Pull the full history through /exports/resolved-props for a sample worth modelling on.
Live response
Captured from the real endpoint on Tampa Bay Buccaneers @ Dallas Cowboys, trimmed to one book and three outcomes so the shape stays readable. The full response carries every book and every line, alternates included, in the same call.
