What the call rests on
- DK Metcalf: Sleeper's projection, last changed Sat, Oct 31, 5:20 PM ET
- Justin Fields: Sleeper's projection
- Sleeper's projections read Sat, Oct 31, 5:28 PM ET.
- Injury statuses read Sat, Oct 31, 5:28 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.

|---|---|---|
| PPR | 11.4 | 0 |
| Half PPR | 9.6 | 0 |
| Standard | 7.7 | 0 |
What could change it before kickoff
- DK Metcalf plays first (Sun 1:00 PM ET); once his game starts most platforms lock him in or out, before Justin Fields'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%.
