What the call rests on

  • Evan Engram: Sleeper's projection, last changed Tue, Nov 3, 8:30 PM ET
  • Tim Jones: Sleeper's projection
  • Sleeper's projections read Tue, Nov 3, 8:41 PM ET.
  • Injury statuses read Tue, Nov 3, 8:41 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

  • A projection update of 2.9 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.
  • Tim Jones plays first (Thu 8:15 PM ET); once his game starts most platforms lock him in or out, before Evan Engram's late news is known.

This week’s projections are Sleeper’s, scored with Standard 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%.
