What the call rests on
- Cooper Kupp: Sleeper's projection, last changed Mon, Nov 2, 12:30 PM ET
- Marquise Brown: Sleeper's projection, last changed Mon, Nov 2, 12:30 PM ET
- Sleeper's projections read Mon, Nov 2, 12:41 PM ET.
- Injury statuses read Mon, Nov 2, 12:41 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.
| Same projections, scored | Kupp | Brown |
|---|---|---|
| PPR | 8.6 | 6.8 |
| Half PPR | 7.2 | 5.5 |
| Standard | 5.7 | 4.2 |
What could change it before kickoff
- A projection update of 1.7 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.
- Marquise Brown plays first (Sun 8:20 PM ET); once his game starts most platforms lock him in or out, before Cooper Kupp's late news is known.
