A toss-up
On Sleeper's projections, Jaylen Wright is projected 1.2 points ahead of Joshua Palmer. In the 2025 season, a player projected that far ahead outscored the other 55% 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
- Jaylen Wright: Sleeper's projection, last changed Thu, Oct 29, 11:50 PM ET
- Joshua Palmer: Sleeper's projection, last changed Thu, Oct 29, 11:50 PM ET
- Sleeper's projections read Thu, Oct 29, 11:55 PM ET.
- Injury statuses read Thu, Oct 29, 11:55 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 | Wright | Palmer |
|---|---|---|
| PPR | 4.2 | 3 |
| Half PPR | 3.8 | 2.4 |
| Standard | 3.4 | 1.9 |
What could change it before kickoff
- A projection update of 1.2 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.
- Joshua Palmer plays first (Sun 1:00 PM ET); once his game starts most platforms lock him in or out, before Jaylen Wright'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%.
