75% LIKELY → 56% COIN FLIP

Every call we wrote for him in week 7, earliest first, as written.

In short

Tremaine Edmunds is a starter at right inside linebacker for NYG — 100% of the snaps in his best week of 6. He has a shoulder injury. In week 7 he did not practise every day the report covers. His team has listed him Out. We called him PLAY in week 7 and he did not play.

The reader concurs · grade A

The Giants have placed Edmunds on injured reserve with a torn chest muscle and McFadden "will take Edmunds' place" (P1), which makes him ineligible for the 25 Oct game. Duggan reported he "will miss the remainder of the 2026 season with a shoulder injury," with Raanan describing a torn muscle extending to his chest (P2). The club's own practice report has him not practicing for a second straight day with the shoulder (P3), consistent with the dossier's DNP/DNP week and the SIT call.
