- Calvin Ridley is questionable. The projection assumes he plays; if he's ruled out, the next player up is the call.
What the call rests on
- Calvin Ridley: Sleeper's projection, last changed Thu, Oct 29, 12:30 AM ET
- Anthony Smith: Sleeper's projection
- Sleeper's projections read Thu, Oct 29, 12:39 AM ET.
- Injury statuses read Thu, Oct 29, 12:39 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.

| Standard | 1.9 | 0 |
What could change it before kickoff
- Calvin Ridley's status (questionable): if he's ruled out, Anthony Smith is the start.
- A projection update of 2.9 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.
Open in Who should I start (your league, more players)
This week’s projections are Sleeper’s, scored with PPR 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%.
