The Jaguars' third-round pick is taking the spot of former left guard Ezra Cleveland, who is now set to start for the Jaguars at right guard.
Robert Hainsey to be 1st on the depth chart
Add in returning startiner center Robert Hainsey, and Pregnon is the lone truly fresh face in the lineup.
Emmanuel Pregnon to be 1st on the depth chart
With Pregnon likely in the starting lineup against the Cleveland Browns in Week 1 ... making Pregnon's Week 1 start at left guard a rare occurence.
C.J. Stroud to be 1st on the depth chart
C.J. Stroud will be suiting up and ready to go as the Texans' starting signal-caller

Greg Newsome II to be 1st on the depth chart
Then there is the question of who the starters will be. Newsome appears to be a lock
Greg Newsome IINew York Giants
Waiting on the season to settle this.said Sep 8, 2026 DK Metcalf to be 1st on the depth chart
Metcalf should have more opportunities in the vertical passing game to show off his explosiveness as Pittsburgh's No. 1 receiver.
Travis Etienne to be 1st on the depth chart
He’s set to see a similar workload in 2026 with the Saints... Etienne should see enough volume that it won’t matter with Alvin Kamara already injured to begin the season.
TreVeyon Henderson to be 2nd on the depth chart
Especially out of the gate for the 2026 season, I expect Rhamondre Stevenson to retain the lead back role.
Bryce Lance to be 3rd on the depth chart
With Jordyn Tyson injured to begin the season, I expect Bryce Lance to be in the starting trio of receivers for the Saints.
Romeo Doubs to be 2nd on the depth chart
Romeo Doubs should be A.J. Brown‘s running mate this season.
De'Zhaun Stribling to be 4th on the depth chart
De’Zhaun Stribling should operate as the third or fourth option in the 49ers’ passing attack in Week 1 with Mike Evans and George Kittle playing.
Rhamondre Stevenson to be 1st on the depth chart
Unless Stevenson falls off in 2026, he should remain the lead back for New England after playing at least 57% of the snaps in nine of his 14 games played in 2025.
Jadarian Price to be 1st on the depth chart
But I still think he is going to be a primary guy, especially early on in these first four weeks.
Bhayshul Tuten to be 1st on the depth chart
Don't know how much of a split it's going to be in Jacksonville, but I do think that he's going to have the edge. So give me tooting at 58.
Deshaun Watson to be 1st on the depth chart
So, Deshaun Watson "won" the QB battle over Shedeur Sanders
Tua Tagovailoa to be 1st on the depth chart
Tua got the Week 1 nod
A.J. Brown to be 1st on the depth chart
Now he’s got a new No. 1 in still-elite A.J. Brown.
Kirk Cousins to be 1st on the depth chart
Starting veteran QB Kirk Cousins will bring early stability.
Tre Tucker to be 1st on the depth chart
Or at least I think Tucker will be the Raiders’ lead receiver, and his preseason usage certainly suggested it.
Dontayvion Wicks to be 1st on the depth chart
A.J. Brown‘s departure from Philadelphia left lot of vacated targets, and Wicks is expected to fill Brown’s role as the starting X receiver.
Malachi Fields to be 2nd on the depth chart
Third-round pick Malachi Fields is expected to open the season as the Giants’ No. 2 receiver behind Malik Nabers, who’s coming back from a major knee injury.
