While he may not be the same player he was with the Chiefs, he remains a solid backup option.

Christian Mahogany to be 1st on the depth chart

Brock Bowers to be 1st on the depth chart
as the clear top pass-catching option, the superstar tight end should be peppered with targets
Warren McClendon Jr. to be 1st on the depth chart
Taking over at the right tackle spot will be Warren McClendon. While McClendon is the Week 1 starter for the first time in his career, he started on the right side for a majority of the 2025 season.
Tua Tagovailoa to be 2nd on the depth chart
It wouldn't shock me if ... Tua Tagovailoa is one-and-done as the Falcons starter ... Maybe even so rough that it could emphasize Penix ... to suit up for Week 2.

He’ll be the undisputed No. 1 pass-catching option for Las Vegas
Waiting on the season to settle this.said Sep 9, 2026 A.J. Brown to be 1st on the depth chart
The acquisition of an All-Pro with six 1,000-yard seasons ... gives the Patriots a legitimate No. 1 receiver to build the passing game around.
Kyler Murray to be 1st on the depth chart
the acquisition of Kyler Murray gives Minnesota an electric QB1 with the potential to light up the scoreboard as a runner and thrower from the pocket
- PendingAdam MurfetDepth Chart Calls2026 season
Emeka Egbuka to be 1st on the depth chart
However, Evans is not the team's main weapon. That role is reserved for Emeka Egbuka, the second-year wide receiver out of Ohio State.

Waiting on the season to settle this.said Sep 9, 2026 Rhamondre Stevenson to be 1st on the depth chart
Unfortunately, TreVeyon Henderson will miss Wednesday night's matchup against the Seattle Seahawks. Therefore, Rhamondre Stevenson will have a featured role in Week 1.

MarShawn Lloyd to be 1st on the depth chart
I still like Lloyd to lead the team in touches, but this is definitely a volatile situation.

Terrance Ferguson to be 3rd on the depth chart
the Rams' Terrance Ferguson stands out as the best and most athletic option in the passing game, and should make a solid third option behind Puka Nacua and Davante Adams

Jordyn Tyson to be 2nd on the depth chart

Ja'Kobi Lane to be 2nd on the depth chart

Waiting on the season to settle this.said Sep 9, 2026 Jalen Tolbert to be 1st on the depth chart
Willis will have his work cut out for him with longtime Dallas Cowboys depth piece Jalen Tolbert as his No. 1 wide receiver to begin the 2026 season.
Marvin Mims Jr. to be 4th on the depth chart
Marvin was trending more towards being wide receiver four in this offense as opposed to being wide receiver six and just the return guy
Pat Bryant to be 3rd on the depth chart
Cortland and Jalen are gonna be the primary two guys. Pat, we know, is probably gonna be the third guy.
Michael Pittman to be 2nd on the depth chart
Now they have multiple number two wide receivers with him and Pittman.
DK Metcalf to be 2nd on the depth chart
They had DK Metcalf, who, let's face it, a number two. So they had a sweet number two wide receiver. Now they have multiple number two wide receivers with him and Pittman.
