A toss-up
On Sleeper's projections, Ashton Jeanty is projected 1.3 points ahead of Tony Pollard. In the 2025 season, a player projected that far ahead outscored the other 56% of the time. 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
- Ashton Jeanty: Sleeper's projection, last changed Sun, Nov 1, 9:20 AM ET
- Tony Pollard: Sleeper's projection, last changed Sun, Nov 1, 9:20 AM ET
- Sleeper's projections read Sun, Nov 1, 9:32 AM ET.
- Injury statuses read Sun, Nov 1, 9:32 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 | Jeanty | Pollard |
|---|---|---|
| PPR | 16 | 14.7 |
| Half PPR | 14.1 | 13.5 |
| Standard | 12.2 | 12.3 |
What could change it before kickoff
- A projection update of 1.3 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: Tony Pollard 12.3, Ashton Jeanty 12.2.

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%.
