| Same projections, scored | Williams | Tate |
|---|---|---|
| PPR | 15.7 | 13.6 |
| Half PPR | 15.7 | 11 |
| Standard | 15.7 | 8.3 |
What could change it before kickoff
- A projection update of 2.1 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.
- Carnell Tate plays first (Sun 1:00 PM ET); once his game starts most platforms lock him in or out, before Caleb Williams'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%.
