Stefon Diggs · Tony Pollard

Week 8 · PPR · 50% held up in 2025

A toss-up

On Sleeper's projections, Tony Pollard is projected 0.1 points ahead of Stefon Diggs. 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 could change it before kickoff

  • 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.
  • Tony Pollard plays first (Sun 1:00 PM ET); once his game starts most platforms lock him in or out, before Stefon Diggs's late news is known.
