- On the injury report: out tonight (right foot 2nd plantar plate tear).
- About the same role as last season: 26 minutes a game; started his one preseason game.

When teammates sit
His minutes and fantasy points in real games without a teammate.
No teammate's absence has changed his minutes much yet (we need 5 or more games without them to say).
If he sits, who gains
In 17 games without him, Kyle Filipowski went from 21 to 25 minutes and 19.8 to 28.8 fantasy points a game.
