How to read this

Projection movement compares the newest drop with the one before it, in DraftKings points, measured 9:28 AM ET. Designations are DraftKings's own tags for this week's slates. The two are separate: a projection falling to zero is not proof of an injury, and a player can rise while still carrying an OUT tag.
