TE SF Week 5 · PPR

Start or sit George Kittle?

The verdict comes from our weekly projection model: last season's opportunity-based xFP/g shrunk toward the position mean, then adjusted for role, injury status, the opponent's fantasy points allowed and the Vegas game total vs the league average.

Borderline

#14 TE projection — on the borderline of the ~13 started in 12-team leagues.

Borderline call: George Kittle projects for 8.9 PPR points this week, ranked #14 among TEs by our projection model. @SEA is a soft matchup for TEs — the model applies a +5% swing to his projection. Vegas posts the total at 48.5 — 103% of the 47.2 league average for week 5.
