Every depth chart calls take
676–700 of 4,890
- PendingNic BodifordDepth Chart Calls2026 season
K.C. Concepcion to be 1st on the depth chart
WR KC Concepcion, Cleveland Brown s : Concepcion has a chance to lead his team in targets from Week 1 onward.
Waiting on the season to settle this.said Sep 9, 2026 Tua Tagovailoa to be 1st on the depth chart
All eyes will be on Tua Tagovailoa as Atlanta's starting quarterback
Luther Burden III to be 1st on the depth chart
How well can the burgeoning Burden perform as Chicago's clear-cut No. 1 receiver against a shutdown corner like Jackson?
Rhamondre Stevenson to be 1st on the depth chart
Rhamondre Stevenson, who took over lead-back duties late in New England's playoff run last season, is expected to step back into that role as the Patriots open their season on the road against the team that beat them in the Super Bowl.
Deshaun Watson to be a starter
DeShaun, who's not long to be the starter.
Tua Tagovailoa to be a starter
Tua, who I don't think is long to be the starter.
Tua Tagovailoa to be 1st on the depth chart
he'll be inactive for the opener against the Steelers, and Cooper Rush will be the backup to Tagovailoa
Cooper Rush to be 2nd on the depth chart
Cooper Rush will be the backup to Tagovailoa
Michael Penix Jr. to be 1st on the depth chart
And I do think Penix will get an extended run, as the new leadership group of Matt Ryan, Ian Cunningham and Kevin Stefanski try to get a clearer picture of their quarterback situation
Teven Jenkins to be 1st on the depth chart
multiple familiar faces are back, including Teven Jenkins, who is slated to start at right guard
Isaiah McGuire to be 1st on the depth chart
And McGuire is penciled in as a starter because the team lost Alex Wright to a season ending injury during training camp.
Derek Barnett to be 2nd on the depth chart
ended up settling for Derek Barnett ... is currently slated to backup Isaiah McGuire
Treylon Burks to be 3rd on the depth chart
That means Burks showed enough in camp to secure at least the inside track at WR3. In theory, that gives Burks the edge heading into Week 1
Dontayvion Wicks to be 2nd on the depth chart
With A.J. Brown gone, he has emerged as the likely WR2 opposite DeVonta Smith.
Tarheeb Still to be 1st on the depth chart
Tarheeb Still and Cam Hart were mid-round finds who have and will serve as starters.
Mike Evans to be 1st on the depth chart
Evans thinks he is the missing piece to the 49ers' offense, and he's right. They needed a true No. 1 wide receiver after Brandon Aiyuk went AWOL.
Cam Hart to be 1st on the depth chart
Tarheeb Still and Cam Hart were mid-round finds who have and will serve as starters.
Jonas Sanker to be 1st on the depth chart
With Taylor leaving, Sanker will be moving from free safety to slot corner.
Braxton Jones to be 1st on the depth chart
Jones is expected to draw the start in Week 1.
D.J. Moore to be 1st on the depth chart
I love D.J. Moore, a real serious No. 1 receiver.
Brandon Cisse to be 1st on the depth chart
Cisse only recently turned 21-years-old and has already locked down a starting job in Green Bay's secondary.
Treydan Stukes to be 1st on the depth chart
Stukes very quickly claimed a starting role over a veteran who had been adequate last season.
Spencer Fano to be 1st on the depth chart
Fano is the only one of those nine opening the season as the starting left tackle.
Logan Jones to be 2nd on the depth chart
Logan Jones will back up Garrett Bradbury in Chicago
Fernando Mendoza to be 2nd on the depth chart
he will open the season on the bench behind veteran Kirk Cousins
