Why the model leans this way
Role first. Matchup second. Availability always visible.
A streaming decision between a steadier role and a fast-rising snap profile.
Brenton Strange: recent role lowers the estimate, and the matchup is neutral. Oronde Gadsden: recent role lowers the estimate, and the matchup is tougher.
Availability adjustments apply only when the source contains a Week 3 report. Older designations remain visible in the injury archive but do not reduce this projection.
