A toss-up

On Sleeper's projections, Ben Skowronek is projected 1.8 points ahead of Kyle Allen. In the 2025 season, a player projected that far ahead outscored the other 58% 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 could change it before kickoff

  • Ben Skowronek's status (questionable): if he's ruled out, Kyle Allen is the start.
  • 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.
