Points allowed is the only D/ST bonus — there is no yards-allowed bonus, because DraftKings doesn't have one. It's switched off in the ESPN settings.
A word on precision — and how we keep it exact. ESPN scores every game live off the official NFL stats, the same source DraftKings uses, so your points match DraftKings the overwhelming majority of the time. Two spots can differ by a hair: ESPN's D/ST points-allowed brackets split at 21 where DraftKings splits at 20 (a defense allowing exactly 21 earns +1 on ESPN, 0 on DraftKings), and once in a while a late stat correction can move a player across a DraftKings yardage-bonus line (100 rushing, 100 receiving, or 300 passing = +3). Here’s the promise: after each week’s official stat corrections are final, the commissioner trues every score up to DraftKings using ESPN’s league-manager scoring adjustment — so your final score is DraftKings, to the decimal. Nothing to argue about.
How it’s timed, so you always know where you stand: live scores during games are provisional — that’s ESPN scoring in real time. Once the NFL’s official corrections are final (ESPN’s deadline is the Saturday after the games), the DraftKings true-up is applied and the week is locked, before the next week kicks off. Think a score is off? Message the commissioner in the league chat with the player and the DraftKings number before the next week kicks off — it’s checked against the official box score and DraftKings and corrected before the week locks. No score decides money until it matches DraftKings.
