A toss-up
On Sleeper's projections, Dontayvion Wicks is projected 0.4 points ahead of Eli Raridon. In the 2025 season, a player projected that far ahead outscored the other 52% of the time. That's close to a coin flip: on these projections neither is the better start, and an injury report or a projection update before kickoff can tip it.

- Dontayvion Wicks is questionable. The projection assumes he plays; if he's ruled out, the next player up is the call.

- Dontayvion Wicks: Sleeper's projection, last changed Fri, Oct 30, 9:00 AM ET
- Eli Raridon: Sleeper's projection, last changed Fri, Oct 30, 9:00 AM ET
- Sleeper's projections read Fri, Oct 30, 9:03 AM ET.

What could change it before kickoff
- Dontayvion Wicks's status (questionable): if he's ruled out, Eli Raridon is the start.
- A projection update of 0.4 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.
- Eli Raridon plays first (Sun 4:25 PM ET); once his game starts most platforms lock him in or out, before Dontayvion Wicks'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%.
