Kyler Murray to be 1st on the depth chart
but he is still a significant upgrade over J.J. McCarthy ... The one glaring concern is that McCarthy might eventually take over if the Vikings can't find a way to win games.

Jordyn Tyson to be 2nd on the depth chart
Tyson profiles as a quality second option for New Orleans once healthy

Chris Olave to be 1st on the depth chart
With Tyson's availability in serious doubt, Olave becomes the unquestioned focal point of the New Orleans passing game
Waiting on the season to settle this.said Aug 29, 2026 - PendingRichard JanvrinDepth Chart Calls
Jadarian Price to be 1st on the depth chart
If he's out, first-round draft pick Jadarian Price has a chance to become the No. 1 RB in this offense.

Tetairoa McMillan to be 1st on the depth chart
He should see plenty of targets once again as the No. 1 WR for the Panthers this season.
Tetairoa McMillanCarolina Panthers
Waiting on the season to settle this.said Aug 29, 2026 Denzel Boston to be 1st on the depth chart
Boston could easily be the Browns’ WR1 after we flip over the cards for the 2026 season
Jalen Nailor to be 2nd on the depth chart
It wouldn’t shock me at all if Jalen Nailor steps up as the clear number two option for the Raiders this season behind Brock Bowers through the air.
Kyler Murray to be 1st on the depth chart
all indications are that Kyler Murray is the clear favorite to be the starter in 2026, and possibly beyond
Saquon Barkley to be 1st on the depth chart
Barkley is the undoubted No. 1 RB in an offense that will score points
Colbie Young to be 4th on the depth chart
Colbie Young and Dohnte Meyers appear to be fourth and fifth on Cincinnati's wide receiver depth chart.
Tyler Badie to be 4th on the depth chart
If the Broncos keep a fourth running back, Badie appears to be the current favorite.
Myles Price to be 4th on the depth chart
The fact that Price didn't play in this game while Tai Felton did suggests Price is fourth on the depth chart.
Malik Washington to be 1st on the depth chart
He didn't play in either of the last two preseason games, and will be the Dolphins' top fantasy receiver to start this season.
Sean Tucker to be 3rd on the depth chart
The fact that Tucker started suggests he has a slight edge, but the rotation indicates it's not decided.
Emmett Johnson to be 2nd on the depth chart
This suggests Johnson will be Walker's primary backup to start the season.
Elijah Arroyo to be 2nd on the depth chart
Still, he remains the top backup receiving tight end and should see a decent amount of playing time this season.
Kevin Coleman to be 2nd on the depth chart
Rookie Kevin Coleman Jr. has consistently been in the slot and will be Washington's backup there.
Tyrone Tracy Jr. to be 4th on the depth chart
It wouldn't be surprising if Tracy drops to fourth on the depth chart, even if he's healthy.
Emmanuel Henderson to be 8th on the depth chart
Sixth-round rookie wide receiver Emmanuel Henderson Jr. remains eighth on the wide receiver depth chart, as he has throughout the preseason.
Pat Bryant to be 3rd on the depth chart
In reality, Bryant is likely the third wide receiver, as he sat out this game.
Ja'Kobi Lane to be 3rd on the depth chart
This included Lane, giving even more evidence that Lane will be the third wide receiver in 11 personnel this season.
Dohnte Meyers to be 5th on the depth chart
Colbie Young and Dohnte Meyers appear to be fourth and fifth on Cincinnati's wide receiver depth chart.
Trevor Etienne to be 3rd on the depth chart
Third-string running back Trevor Etienne played the first two snaps and then his night was done, suggesting his spot as the third running back is safe.
Noah Fant to be 2nd on the depth chart
providing further evidence that he will be the tight end alongside Juwan Johnson in 12 personnel this season, with Delp serving as Johnson's backup
Tahj Brooks to be 3rd on the depth chart
Bengals running back Tahj Brooks appears likely to make the roster as the team's third running back
