Shedeur SandersCleveland Browns
Waiting on the season to settle this.said Aug 16, 2026 Mike Washington to be 2nd on the depth chart

Emari Demercado to be 4th on the depth chart
This would suggest that Demercado is a distant fourth on the depth chart.

Jeremiyah Love to be 1st on the depth chart
Love started this game, suggesting he is already ahead of Allgeier on the depth chart.
Kimani Vidal to be 3rd on the depth chart
The fact that Mitchell didn’t play while Vidal did suggests Vidal is a clear third on the depth chart.
Jaydon Blue to be 2nd on the depth chart
Jaydon Blue appears locked into the backup running back role: Blue dominated the first-half snaps, suggesting the No. 2 job is his to lose.
Eli Stowers to be 4th on the depth chart
Eli Stowers starts fourth on the depth chart: Stowers appears unlikely to make a significant impact as a rookie.
