- Jahan Dotson'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
- Jahan Dotson: Sleeper's projection, last changed Sun, Nov 1, 9:30 PM ET
- Drew Lock: Sleeper's projection
- Sleeper's projections read Sun, Nov 1, 9:36 PM ET.
- Injury statuses read Sun, Nov 1, 9:36 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.

What could change it before kickoff
- Drew Lock's status (questionable): if he's ruled out, Jahan Dotson is the start.
