- Sleeper's projections read Mon, Nov 2, 12:41 PM ET.

| Same projections, scored | Washington | III |
|---|---|---|
| PPR | 14.9 | 12.4 |
| Half PPR | 12.8 | 10.1 |
| Standard | 10.7 | 7.7 |
What could change it before kickoff
- A projection update of 2.5 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.
- Parker Washington plays first (Sun 1:00 PM ET); once his game starts most platforms lock him in or out, before Luther Burden III's late news is known.
