A toss-up
On Sleeper's projections, A.J. Brown and Jameson Williams are projected level. That's close to a coin flip: on these projections neither is the better start, and an injury report or a projection update before kickoff can tip it.

What the call rests on
- A.J. Brown: Sleeper's projection, last changed Wed, Nov 4, 3:30 AM ET
- Jameson Williams: Sleeper's projection, last changed Wed, Nov 4, 3:30 AM ET
- Sleeper's projections read Wed, Nov 4, 3:44 AM ET.
- Injury statuses read Wed, Nov 4, 3:44 AM ET, with the projections (hourly). A fresh projection time doesn't mean every status is: game-day inactives, about 90 minutes before kickoff, can come after it.
| Same projections, scored | Brown | Williams |

| Standard | 8.9 | 8.9 |
What could change it before kickoff
- A.J. Brown's status (questionable): if he's ruled out, Jameson Williams is the start.
- A projection update of 0 points or more in the other direction flips the call; Sleeper keeps adjusting its projections until kickoff, and this page reads them again at most an hour after it last did.
- Jameson Williams plays first (Sun 1:00 PM ET); once his game starts most platforms lock him in or out, before A.J. Brown's late news is known.

This week’s projections are Sleeper’s, scored with Standard settings. The percentage is how often a projected gap like this held up across the 2025 season; checked against 2026 games (not used to fit it), the stated chances so far run a few points high, so read a 60% call as nearer 55%.
