NFL Player Survivor puts a fantasy twist on the classic Survivor format. Instead of picking a team to win each week, you pick an individual NFL player to score a point (or hit a stat threshold). Pick right and you survive — pick wrong and you're out.
How NFL Player Survivor Works
Each week, you select one NFL player. If that player scores (or meets the contest's scoring threshold), you advance to the next week. If they don't — or you miss your pick — you're eliminated.
The last remaining entry wins the entire prize pool.
Player Use Limit
Like team-based Survivor, each player can typically only be selected once for the entire contest. Once you use Patrick Mahomes in Week 3, you can't pick him again. Plan ahead — save your top players for weeks where the matchups are most favorable.
Check your contest's Rules section to confirm the player use limit for your contest.
What Counts as Scoring?
The specific scoring threshold is set by your commissioner. Common formats include:
Player scores a touchdown (any type)
Player earns a fantasy point total above a set threshold (e.g., 10+ fantasy points)
Check your contest's Rules section to see exactly what your player needs to do for you to advance.
How to Make Your Weekly Pick
Log in at app.splashsports.com or open the Splash Sports app
Go to My Contests → Active and select your Player Survivor contest
Tap your entry to open the pick sheet
Select one NFL player for the week
Tap Save/Submit to lock in your pick
⚠️ Picks lock at the deadline set by your commissioner. Once locked, your pick cannot be changed.
What Happens If I Miss My Pick?
Missing the pick deadline is treated the same as making an incorrect pick — you are eliminated. If Auto Picks are enabled by your commissioner, the system will assign a player on your behalf if you miss the deadline.
How the Winner Is Determined
The last surviving entry wins the full prize pool. If multiple entries survive to the end, the prize is split equally. If all remaining entries are eliminated in the same week, those entries split the prize equally.
