- Sleeper's projections read Sun, Nov 1, 1:29 AM ET.

| Standard | 2 | 0 |
What could change it before kickoff
- Dawson Knox plays first (Sun 1:00 PM ET); once his game starts most platforms lock him in or out, before Erik Ezukanma's late news is known.

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%.
