Before you lock it in

Less than one projected point separates these players. Treat this as a close decision rather than a confident bench call. Confirm active status, kickoff time and your league’s scoring. This page does not include verified late injury or weather updates.

What changes in PPR, half-PPR and standard?

PPR awards one point per reception; half-PPR awards 0.5; standard awards no reception point. Use the scoring buttons above to compare the same players under each preset. Passing TDs, bonuses and other custom rules may differ in your league.
