A toss-up
On Sleeper's projections, Jaylen Warren and Tony Pollard are projected level. 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
- Jaylen Warren: Sleeper's projection, last changed Sat, Oct 31, 10:20 PM ET
- Tony Pollard: Sleeper's projection, last changed Sat, Oct 31, 10:20 PM ET
- Sleeper's projections read Sat, Oct 31, 10:29 PM ET.
- Injury statuses read Sat, Oct 31, 10:29 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 | Warren | Pollard |
|---|---|---|
| PPR | 14.9 | 14.7 |
| Half PPR | 13.5 | 13.5 |
| Standard | 12.1 | 12.3 |
What could change it before kickoff
- A projection update of 0 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.
