2001–2025 of 4,969
- PendingNic BodifordDepth Chart Calls2026 season
Kyren Williams to be 1st on the depth chart
He is expected to operate in a near-50-50 split with starting running back Kyren Williams... Williams is expected to be the primary passing-down and scoring-position running back
Kyren WilliamsLos Angeles Rams
Waiting on the season to settle this.said Aug 24, 2026 - PendingRyan KirkseyDepth Chart Calls2026 season
Pat Bryant to be 3rd on the depth chart
with Pat Bryant emerging as the favorite for the No. 3 WR role over Marvin Mims and Troy Franklin
Waiting on the season to settle this.said Aug 24, 2026 Rico Dowdle to be 1st on the depth chart
Dowdle projects to take most of the early-down work, while Warren will take over the receiving duties.
Rhamondre Stevenson to be 1st on the depth chart
I see the first half of the season following a similar trend, with Stevenson as the 1A and Henderson as the 1B.
TreVeyon Henderson to be 2nd on the depth chart
I see the first half of the season following a similar trend, with Stevenson as the 1A and Henderson as the 1B.
Denzel Boston to be 1st on the depth chart
Denzel Boston has been listed as a starting receiver on Cleveland's depth chart.
Omar Cooper to be 2nd on the depth chart
Omar Cooper has reportedly struggled in training camp and could be demoted in favor of Isaiah Williams.
Malachi Fields to be 2nd on the depth chart
Malachi Fields has made an early claim for the No. 2 receiver spot... it sounds like he'll be starting regardless.
Rhamondre Stevenson to be 1st on the depth chart
it'll likely mean that Rhamondre Stevenson will handle most of the workload
Kaelon Black to be 2nd on the depth chart
With Isaac Guerendo also hurt, Kaelon Black is now the No. 2 back behind Christian McCaffrey.
Kyler Murray to be 1st on the depth chart
Kyler Murray won the starting job in Minnesota.
Jonathon Brooks to be 1st on the depth chart
This is a golden opportunity for Jonathon Brooks to seize the starting job, which looked certain in the first place.
Drew Lock to be 2nd on the depth chart
I think Drew Locket is clearly the number two quarterback.
Shedeur Sanders to be 1st on the depth chart
I'm leaning towards what Joe's saying that a should Door's gonna get named the starter
Deshaun Watson to be 1st on the depth chart
As a owner, I'm always going with the money man until he loses his job... I know what decision they're gonna make up there.
Jake Slaughter to be 1st on the depth chart
The Los Angeles Chargers reportedly placed starting center Tyler Biadasz on season-ending injured reserve Sunday ... Second-round rookie Jake Slaughter is expected to take over starting duties.
Jadarian Price to be 1st on the depth chart
On offense, rookie first-round running back Jadarian Price has positioned himself as the clear primary back following Kenneth Walker's free-agent departure and Zach Charbonnet's ongoing recovery from a torn ACL
Travis Etienne to be 1st on the depth chart
Kamara's injury is a boon to Travis Etienne, who should take firm command of the No. 1 running back role in New Orleans if the former's absence carries into the regular season.
Deion Jones to be 3rd on the depth chart
The 49ers were in need of linebacker depth with only Fred Warner and Tatum Bethune available to them, and Jones fits the mold of a third option.
Tony Pollard to be 2nd on the depth chart
Tyjae Spears out-snaps Tony Pollard with the starters again
Elic Ayomanor to be 4th on the depth chart
they have fallen behind Calvin Ridley, who spent most of last season injured, first-round rookie Carnell Tate and free-agent addition Wan'Dale Robinson. Ayomanor and Dike didn't see significant playing time until the fourth quarter
Gunnar Helm to be 1st on the depth chart
While Helm is still expected to be the lead tight end, he will need more playing time to earn a higher target share than he has seen in the past.
Calvin Ridley to be 1st on the depth chart
For the first three drives, Ridley played X, Tate played Z and Robinson lined up in the slot.
AJ Barner to be 1st on the depth chart
Arroyo will be someone to pick up off the waiver wire if Barner suffers an injury
Tyjae Spears to be 1st on the depth chart
Tyjae Spears out-snaps Tony Pollard with the starters again: Pollard has started both games, but Spears has been on the field more frequently with Cam Ward this preseason.
