What the call rests on

  • Sleeper's projections read Tue, Oct 27, 7:55 PM ET.
  • Injury statuses read Tue, Oct 27, 9:01 AM ET from Sleeper’s player list (once a day). A fresh projection time doesn't mean every status is: game-day inactives, about 90 minutes before kickoff, can come after it.

What could change it before kickoff

  • A projection update of 2 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.
  • Brady Cook plays first (Sun 4:25 PM ET); once his game starts most platforms lock him in or out, before Elijah Mitchell's late news is known.

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%.
