Every depth chart calls take
201–225 of 4,890
Josh Downs to be 1st on the depth chart
In his absence, Josh Downs figures to be elevated to the No. 1 role
Laquon Treadwell to be 3rd on the depth chart
with the first three listed being the starting options: Josh Downs, Keenan Allen, Laquon Treadwell
Josh Downs to be 1st on the depth chart
their available wide receiver room now features the following players, with the first three listed being the starting options: Josh Downs, Keenan Allen, Laquon Treadwell, Deion Burks, Anthony Gould
Deion Burks to be 4th on the depth chart
Josh Downs / Keenan Allen / Laquon Treadwell / Deion Burks / Anthony Gould
Anthony Gould to be 5th on the depth chart
Josh Downs / Keenan Allen / Laquon Treadwell / Deion Burks / Anthony Gould
Keenan Allen to be 2nd on the depth chart
with the first three listed being the starting options: Josh Downs, Keenan Allen, Laquon Treadwell
Tyson Bagent to be 1st on the depth chart
If Williams can't go, it will be Tyson Bagent. Who performed well in limited duty on Sunday, and in whom the Bears have a high degree of confidence.
Tyson Bagent to be 1st on the depth chart
It seems likely it will have to be with Bagent and not Williams at QB, for now at least.
Deshaun Watson to be 1st on the depth chart
Deshaun Watson earned another start. Overreaction or reality: Reality ... Week 3 is the Browns' home opener, against the Panthers. If it goes poorly, Todd Monken could re-evaluate. But Monken supported Watson after Week 1 and again after Watson was much better in Week 2.

Deshaun Watson to be 1st on the depth chart
All in all, Watson's performance has definitely bought him more time as Cleveland's starting quarterback.
Deshaun WatsonCleveland Browns
Waiting on the season to settle this.said Sep 20, 2026 Tyson Bagent to be 1st on the depth chart
Barring a trade (which would be a surprise with the options at their disposal), the starting job will belong to Bagent in the meantime.
Rhamondre Stevenson to be 1st on the depth chart
Stevenson remained the primary third-down back throughout the game, so the only thing we can be decently confident in heading into next week is that Stevenson will likely remain the third-down option.
Romeo Doubs to be 1st on the depth chart
Doubs was the clear leader in receiving production with three receptions for 96 yards. While most of that was from a 63-yard catch, it's fair to expect him to be New England's lead wide receiver over the next few weeks.
Greg Van Roten to be 1st on the depth chart
In his place, Van Roten had some ups and downs at right guard. He's likely the top replacement to step in for Onwenu this season.
- PendingJay GlazerDepth Chart Calls2026 season
Aaron Donald to be 1st on the depth chart
Per Glazer, Donald will start the game and play in a rotation.

Kyler Murray to be 1st on the depth chart
"unless Carson Wentz goes out there and throws five touchdowns today, that is not their plan," Glazer said. "This is Kyler's team."
Waiting on the season to settle this.said Sep 20, 2026 Kyler Murray to be 1st on the depth chart
the coaching staff clearly views him as the starter this season. Once he clears concussion protocol, all signs are that he'll regain the starting job immediately.
Micah Robinson to be 1st on the depth chart
Now fellow starting CB Alontae Taylor will have to try and hold down the fort alongside next-man-up Micah Robinson.
C.J. Donaldson to be 3rd on the depth chart
We expect CJ Donaldson Jr to continue to have a presence in the Saints backfield, spelling Travis Etienne Jr and Kamara.
Carson Wentz to be 1st on the depth chart
Carson Wentz will hold down his spot for another week.
Braxton Jones to be 1st on the depth chart
Braxton Jones returns to his spot at left tackle for another game, as expected. Chances are he's going to stick there as long as he doesn't falter, but his leash could be very short once Trapilo is ready to get into game action.
Aaron Banks to be 1st on the depth chart
Inactive for the opener due to knee tendinitis, he is active and presumably will start against the Jets.
Kamal Hadden to be 4th on the depth chart
So, without St-Juste, Carrington Valentine will be the third cornerback and Kamal Hadden the fourth if emergency strikes.
Karl Brooks to be 1st on the depth chart
Devonte Wyatt and Karl Brooks, the top players on the unit, will be in the starting lineup
Carrington Valentine to be 3rd on the depth chart
So, without St-Juste, Carrington Valentine will be the third cornerback and Kamal Hadden the fourth if emergency strikes.
