What the call rests on

  • Geno Smith: Sleeper's projection, last changed Sun, Nov 1, 5:30 PM ET

  • Sleeper's projections read Sun, Nov 1, 5:35 PM ET.
  • Injury statuses read Sun, Nov 1, 5:35 PM 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.

What could change it before kickoff

  • Geno Smith plays first (Sun 1:00 PM ET); once his game starts most platforms lock him in or out, before Chris Bell'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%.
