George KarlaftisKansas City Chiefs

Keion White to be 1st on the depth chart

He most likely will start at defensive end and then move to defensive tackle on third down.

Nick Bosa to be 1st on the depth chart

Assuming his patellar knee tendinitis doesn't flare up again, he will start and play lots of snaps against the Rams even if he's not quite ready, because the 49ers are desperate.

Parker Washington to be 1st on the depth chart

If I had to predict who I think will lead the Jaguars in most receiving stats, I would say Parker Washington.

Ventrell Miller to be 1st on the depth chart

I think we see a very similar strategy this time around, but with Miller starting the game and leading in snaps.

Antonio Johnson to be 1st on the depth chart

it is clear he has leaped to the No. 1 safety role in the defense

Branson Combs to be 2nd on the depth chart

Ventrell Miller. I think the sheer fact that Miller has started 11 games in his career (and has looked solid in doing so) is a clear reason to give Miller the edge over Branson Combs.

DaVon Hamilton to be 1st on the depth chart

Who do I think lines up on the first 1st-and-10 of the game? Probably DaVon Hamilton and Matt Dickerson.

Matt Dickerson to be 1st on the depth chart

Probably DaVon Hamilton and Matt Dickerson. I think that is the duo you will see for a lot of early run downs throughout the season

Matt DickersonJacksonville Jaguars

Nick Mullens to be 2nd on the depth chart

my gut guess is that Nick Mullens is the backup quarterback in some fashion when the Cleveland Browns visit on Sept. 13

Caleb Ransaw to be 3rd on the depth chart

I think Ransaw gets the early nod as the No. 3 safety, but him and Jalen Huskey looked neck-and-neck all summer.

Greg Dortch to be 1st on the depth chart

although he's currently just on the practice squad with only three call-ups to his name, Dortch presumably will dress for games to start the regular season off as Buffalo's main punt returner.

Kyle Van Noy to be 2nd on the depth chart

Van Noy can rotate in for either Van Ginkel or Turner when needed and be a high-quality backup in case one of them is forced to miss some time this season.

Dallas Turner to be 1st on the depth chart

This season, Turner is expected to go from a backup edge rusher and situational defender to a full-time starter on defense.

Daxton Hill to be 1st on the depth chart

One of Cincinnati's top cornerbacks is "feeling good" and seems like he will suit up for next Sunday's game against the Buccaneers.

TreVeyon Henderson to be 2nd on the depth chart

Fantasy players would love for Henderson to earn a featured workload in Josh McDaniels' offense. Unfortunately, the Patriots will continue to give Rhamondre Stevenson the more meaningful touches

Rhamondre Stevenson to be 1st on the depth chart

the Patriots will continue to give Rhamondre Stevenson the more meaningful touches, including on third down and near the goal line

Parker Washington to be 1st on the depth chart

it has now become clear that Washington should lead this receiving group in snaps in 2026

K.C. Concepcion to be 1st on the depth chart

Concepcion should lead this team in receiving usage

De'Zhaun Stribling to be 1st on the depth chart

don't be surprised if he becomes the 49ers' top receiving target sooner rather than later

Jaylin Noel to be 2nd on the depth chart

Noel, Xavier Hutchinson and Kayshon Boutte may serve as the No. 2 (or maybe No. 1 WR) by default.

MarShawn Lloyd to be 1st on the depth chart

Lloyd could walk into a starting role and never look back.

Malik Washington to be 1st on the depth chart

Malik Washington is in his third NFL season and could end up finishing the season as the No. 1 wide receiver for a dilapidated Miami offense.

Jadarian Price to be 1st on the depth chart

Jadarian Price is going to be the bell-cow back for one of the top offensive teams in the league.
