Every depth chart calls take
2476–2500 of 5,045
Ephesians Prysock to be 2nd on the depth chart
They might have something with Prysock. He could be their second-best starting outside cornerback. Maybe even their best.
Blake Miller to be 1st on the depth chart
Miller will slot in at right tackle as Penei Sewell switches to the left side for the Lions.
Tua Tagovailoa to be 1st on the depth chart
he's already in the hot seat as the presumed starter
Jonah Savaiinaea to be 1st on the depth chart
Savaiinaea is the clear starter at right guard, but if he doesn't improve significantly from his rookie season, he might not be there for long.
Kyler Murray to be 1st on the depth chart
Kyler Murray winning the Vikings' starting quarterback job wasn't a surprise, but it wasn't the smoothest sailing, either.
Penei Sewell to be 1st on the depth chart
Miller will slot in at right tackle as Penei Sewell switches to the left side for the Lions.

Jonah Coleman to be 1st on the depth chart
Jonah Coleman Wins the No. 1 RB Job in Denver
Waiting on the season to settle this.said Aug 18, 2026 Breece Hall to be 1st on the depth chart
The Jets signed Hall to a massive contract extension this offseason, so expect him to be the featured guy.
David Montgomery to be 1st on the depth chart
More importantly, Montgomery will be the featured guy in Houston.
Rhamondre Stevenson to be 1st on the depth chart
While I expect Henderson to earn more work than he did as a rookie, Stevenson should handle most of the critical touches.
D'Andre Swift to be 1st on the depth chart
Some believe Kyle Monangai will replace Swift as the Bears' starter. However, that isn't the case.
Jonathon Brooks to be 1st on the depth chart
Brooks could be the Week 1 starter, especially with Chuba Hubbard dealing with a hamstring injury.
Tony Pollard to be 1st on the depth chart
Pollard will be the Titans' lead running back again in 2026.
Jadarian Price to be 1st on the depth chart
Don't be surprised if Price is Seattle's featured running back until Charbonnet is healthy.
Stefon Diggs to be 2nd on the depth chart
Diggs should immediately slot in as the No. 2 WR behind Terry McLaurin, making him a safe every-week starter in 2026.

Oronde Gadsden II to be 2nd on the depth chart
That might be a harbinger that Gadsden is slotted for a backup role.

Brooks could pull an Uncle Rico from last year and steal Hubbard's starting job in 2026.
Brock Bowers to be 1st on the depth chart
The Raiders are talent-starved at wide receiver, so Bowers is poised to be their alpha pass catcher.

Kolton Miller to be 1st on the depth chart

Matthew Hibner to be 2nd on the depth chart
