A toss-up

On Sleeper's projections, Alvin Kamara and Jadarian Price 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

  • Alvin Kamara: Sleeper's projection, last changed Tue, Nov 3, 7:40 PM ET
  • Jadarian Price: Sleeper's projection, last changed Tue, Nov 3, 7:40 PM ET
  • Sleeper's projections read Tue, Nov 3, 7:41 PM ET.
  • Injury statuses read Tue, Nov 3, 7:41 PM 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.

What could change it before kickoff

  • 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.
  • Alvin Kamara plays first (Sun 1:00 PM ET); once his game starts most platforms lock him in or out, before Jadarian Price's late news is known.
