| Same projections, scored | Young | Stevenson |
|---|---|---|
| PPR | 17.9 | 15.6 |
| Half PPR | 17.9 | 13.9 |
| Standard | 17.9 | 12.1 |
What could change it before kickoff
- A projection update of 2.3 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.
- Bryce Young plays first (Thu 8:15 PM ET); once his game starts most platforms lock him in or out, before Rhamondre Stevenson's late news is known.
