It automatically watches flights in these scenarios and will hold your connecting flight if it doesn’t screw up other travelers connections too bad. I’ve had it work from DEN-SLC when I was on the last flight out and my inbound was delayed. If the crew has the time and it’s the last flight hub to non hub you have a good chance.

Fingers crossed for you

Edit to add, if it’s mechanical and you start to get notifications for food vouchers/hotel then the connection saver algorithm knows you’re screwed
