For Chicago at Green Bay in Week 5, retained DraftKings observations first showed the Bears at +2.5, later at -3, and later still at -1.5. The final step partially reversed the earlier move without returning to the first number.

Illustrative same-book sequence. A reversal describes the path; it does not establish why the market changed.
What changed
The Bears crossed from underdog to favorite and reached -3. The later -1.5 quote moved 1.5 points back toward the original observation, so the path was not a simple one-direction line.
Why the observation matters
A current quote alone cannot reconstruct the route taken to reach it. A timeline distinguishes the first move, the later reversal and the attached prices at each checkpoint.
What it does not prove
The reversal does not reveal its cause, identify bettor groups, or predict the game result. It describes a same-book sequence retained by SharpFish.
