California’s next decisions are tied to kickoff. The September 12, 11:30 a.m. PT check shows five remaining Tony Romo starters playing Sunday, September 13: David Montgomery and Jaylen Warren at 10 a.m., then Justin Jefferson, De’Von Achane and Trey McBride at 1:25 p.m. Jaylen Waddle plays Monday at 5:15 p.m. All times are Pacific.

Check official game-day availability before each window. An early reserve such as Parker Washington, Kenny Gainwell or Michael Pittman Jr. stops being an unused Sunday option once his game begins. Jayden Reed and Aaron Jones Sr. play in the afternoon. That timing matters if a starter develops a late problem.

The quarterback decision is already complete for Week 1. Drake Maye scored 14.82, and Jared Goff cannot replace that start. Yahoo confirms California added Goff for Josh Downs September 10 at 1:28 p.m. Goff gives the Stoners a second quarterback to evaluate for Week 2.

Tush Push Nation still has six starters left in the captured matchup, all scheduled Sunday. Its completed A.J. Brown, Jadarian Price and Rams defense points remain fixed even though Brown now carries an IR tag. California should evaluate the upcoming deadlines on their own merits and keep Waddle’s Monday role in view.
