What the call rests on

- Brandon Johnson: Sleeper's projection
- Sleeper's projections read Sat, Oct 31, 4:27 AM ET.

|---|---|---|
| PPR | 4.5 | 0 |
| Half PPR | 3.6 | 0 |
| Standard | 2.8 | 0 |
What could change it before kickoff
- Brandon Johnson plays first (Sun 1:00 PM ET); once his game starts most platforms lock him in or out, before Oronde Gadsden'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%.
