How Does Reboot Injury Protection Work?

Injuries are unpredictable, and they can often impact the outcome of your contest. With Reboot Injury Protection, we want to give you the peace of mind that your entries are protected from some of those unpredictable outcomes.

Currently available for NFL, NBA, MLB, NHL, WNBA, CFB, and CBB, this feature helps ensure that your entry isn’t penalized for circumstances beyond your control.

⚠️ Note: Unless stated otherwise, Reboot Injury Protection only applies to injury and weather delays, and NOT to

  • Coach’s decisions (e.g., benched players)

  • Ejected players

  • Preseason or live picks

  • Picks from the MLB All-Star Game

  • Non-injury or non-weather-related substitutions

When a pick qualifies for Reboot Injury Protection, it is voided, and the contest will be settled based on the remaining valid picks in your entry. If fewer than two valid picks remain or if there is not at least 1 player from different teams remaining, your entire entry will be canceled and refunded.
