What the call rests on
- Cade Otton: Sleeper's projection, last changed Thu, Oct 29, 8:10 AM ET
- Eli Heidenreich: Sleeper's projection, last changed Thu, Oct 29, 8:10 AM ET
- Sleeper's projections read Thu, Oct 29, 8:25 AM ET.
- Injury statuses read Thu, Oct 29, 8:25 AM ET, with the projections (hourly). A fresh projection time doesn't mean every status is: game-day inactives, about 90 minutes before kickoff, can come after it.
| Same projections, scored | Otton | Heidenreich |
|---|---|---|
| PPR | 7.9 | 0.1 |
| Half PPR | 6.2 | 0.1 |
| Standard | 4.5 | 0.1 |
What could change it before kickoff
Nothing pending on either: both are expected to play, and the gap is wide enough that a typical projection update doesn't close it.
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%.
