How do PrizePicks Reboots and DNP Work for NFL?
PrizePicks will automatically remove projections from a Lineup when a player does not play (DNP), or if the athlete meets the requirement for a Reboot.
Players will receive a reboot and be reverted to a DNP if they leave in the first half with an injury and do not return to the game.
When these picks are removed from your Lineup, they will not be counted toward a loss, but they will lower payouts by one tier for each DNP/Reboot. View PrizePicks payout structures here.
Players will be marked as DNP if they do not receive an offensive snap (for offensive players) or defensive snap (for defensive players). For projections in a specific period of play (like 1st half or 1st quarter), they will be given a DNP status if they don't play in that time frame.
Learn more about the Reboot and DNP policy for NFL here, or in the app where you find the scoring charts.
What are Demons and Goblins on PrizePicks?
You can win more with Demons and Goblins on the PrizePicks board. You can filter through a player’s regular Demon, and Goblin projections by clicking the left and right arrow icon by a player’s projection.
Demons are identified by a bold red emoji on the projection board. Demons are high-difficulty projections that can rocket your max payout up to 1000x if you pick correctly. You must pick “More” on a Demon projection.
Goblins are identified by a green emoji on the projection board and they’re designed to keep you in the green. These are safer picks that make it easier to land consistent wins.
