- Elic Ayomanor's game has already kicked off, so most platforms have locked him in or out for this week.
- Drew Lock is questionable. The projection assumes he plays; if he's ruled out, the next player up is the call.
What the call rests on
- Elic Ayomanor: Sleeper's projection, last changed Mon, Nov 2, 6:30 AM ET
- Drew Lock: Sleeper's projection
- Sleeper's projections read Mon, Nov 2, 6:40 AM ET.
- Injury statuses read Mon, Nov 2, 6:40 AM 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
- Drew Lock's status (questionable): if he's ruled out, Elic Ayomanor is the start.
- Elic Ayomanor plays first (Sun 1:00 PM ET); once his game starts most platforms lock him in or out, before Drew Lock's late news is known.
