Implied total

team points

Currently ruled out — not a viable start until his status changes.
JAX ranks 7 of 32 against TEs (one of the tougher matchups, 4-game sample).
Vegas implies 23.5 team points as 1.5-point favorites.
Listed TE on the latest depth chart with a 60% snap share.

The call

Availability is Out (normalized: out), which overrides everything else on the sheet; an inactive player cannot score.
Even if he were active, the profile was shaky: the JAX matchup ranks 7 of 32 vs TEs (tough side, though only a 4-game sample at 0.50 confidence), with a modest 13% target share and 60% snap share over 2 games.
The TE12 rank and 10.9-point projection don't apply if he doesn't suit up. Confirm the deterministic sit-lean and slot in your best available replacement.

Verdicts based on PPR scoring.
