What the call rests on
- Austin Hooper: Sleeper's projection, last changed Tue, Nov 3, 6:40 PM ET
- Tai Felton: Sleeper's projection, last changed Tue, Nov 3, 6:40 PM ET
- Sleeper's projections read Tue, Nov 3, 6:41 PM ET.
- Injury statuses read Tue, Nov 3, 6:41 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.
| Same projections, scored | Hooper | Felton |
|---|---|---|
| PPR | 3.8 | 1.5 |
| Half PPR | 3.1 | 1.2 |
| Standard | 2.4 | 0.9 |
What could change it before kickoff
- A projection update of 1.9 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.
- Austin Hooper plays first (Sun 9:30 AM ET); once his game starts most platforms lock him in or out, before Tai Felton's late news is known.
Open in Who should I start (your league, more players)
This week’s projections are Sleeper’s, scored with Half 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%.
