- 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
- Evan Engram: Sleeper's projection, last changed Sat, Oct 31, 4:20 AM ET
- Drew Lock: Sleeper's projection
- Sleeper's projections read Sat, Oct 31, 4:27 AM ET.
- Injury statuses read Sat, Oct 31, 4:27 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.

| Half PPR | 3.8 | 0 |
| Standard | 2.8 | 0 |
What could change it before kickoff
- Drew Lock's status (questionable): if he's ruled out, Evan Engram is the start.
- Evan Engram plays first (Sun 4:25 PM ET); once his game starts most platforms lock him in or out, before Drew Lock's late news is known.
