What the call rests on
- Justin Jefferson: Sleeper's projection, last changed Sat, Oct 31, 4:20 AM ET
- Ashton Jeanty: Sleeper's projection, last changed Sat, Oct 31, 4:20 AM ET
- Sleeper's projections read Sat, Oct 31, 4:27 AM ET.
- Injury statuses read Sat, Oct 31, 4:27 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 | Jefferson | Jeanty |
|---|---|---|
| PPR | 17.6 | 15.8 |
| Half PPR | 14.5 | 14 |
| Standard | 11.4 | 12.1 |
What could change it before kickoff
- A projection update of 1.8 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.
- In standard scoring the call goes the other way: Ashton Jeanty 12.1, Justin Jefferson 11.4.
