A toss-up
On Sleeper's projections, Saquon Barkley is projected 0.1 points ahead of Breece Hall. In the 2025 season, a player projected that far ahead outscored the other 50% 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.

- Breece Hall's status (questionable): if he's ruled out, Saquon Barkley is the start.
- A projection update of 0.1 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 ppr scoring the call goes the other way: Breece Hall 11.2, Saquon Barkley 10.9.
- Breece Hall plays first (Sun 1:00 PM ET); once his game starts most platforms lock him in or out, before Saquon Barkley's late news is known.

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%.
