A toss-up
On Sleeper's projections, Tyler Warren is projected 0.2 points ahead of T.J. Hockenson. In the 2025 season, a player projected that far ahead outscored the other 51% 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.

- Sleeper's projections read Fri, Oct 30, 9:23 PM ET.

| Same projections, scored | Warren | Hockenson |
|---|---|---|
| PPR | 11 | 10.8 |
| Half PPR | 8.4 | 8.5 |
| Standard | 5.9 | 6.1 |
What could change it before kickoff
- A projection update of 0.2 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.
- In half-PPR scoring the call goes the other way: T.J. Hockenson 8.5, Tyler Warren 8.4.
- In standard scoring the call goes the other way: T.J. Hockenson 6.1, Tyler Warren 5.9.
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%.
