What the call rests on
- George Kittle: Sleeper's projection, last changed Tue, Nov 3, 10:40 PM ET
- Travis Kelce: Sleeper's projection, last changed Tue, Nov 3, 10:40 PM ET
- Sleeper's projections read Tue, Nov 3, 10:42 PM ET.
- Injury statuses read Tue, Nov 3, 10:42 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.
| Same projections, scored | Kittle | Kelce |
|---|---|---|
| PPR | 15.2 | 13.2 |
| Half PPR | 12.7 | 11 |
| Standard | 10.2 | 8.7 |
What could change it before kickoff
- A projection update of 2 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.
- Travis Kelce plays first (Sun 1:00 PM ET); once his game starts most platforms lock him in or out, before George Kittle's late news is known.
Open in Who should I start (your league, more players)
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%.
