A toss-up
On Sleeper's projections, Jalen Coker is projected 0.1 points ahead of Michael Wilson. In the 2025 season, a player projected that far ahead outscored the other 50% of the time. That's close to a coin flip: on these projections neither is the better start, and an injury report or a projection update before kickoff can tip it.

What the call rests on
- Jalen Coker: Sleeper's projection, last changed Wed, Oct 28, 1:20 AM ET
- Michael Wilson: Sleeper's projection, last changed Wed, Oct 28, 1:20 AM ET
- Sleeper's projections read Wed, Oct 28, 1:24 AM ET.
- Injury statuses read Wed, Oct 28, 1:24 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.
| Same projections, scored | Coker | Wilson |

| Half PPR | 13.2 | 13.2 |
| Standard | 10.3 | 10.5 |
What could change it before kickoff
- Jalen Coker's status (questionable): if he's ruled out, Michael Wilson is the start.
- A projection update of 0.1 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.
- In half-PPR scoring the call goes the other way: Michael Wilson 13.2, Jalen Coker 13.2.
- In standard scoring the call goes the other way: Michael Wilson 10.5, Jalen Coker 10.3.
- Jalen Coker plays first (Thu 8:15 PM ET); once his game starts most platforms lock him in or out, before Michael Wilson'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%.
