Caleb Rogers to be 1st on the depth chart
Rogers is fighting for a starting role... These players are the most intriguing offensive linemen on the team, and they will most likely make up the starting lineup.

Joshua Dobbs to be 2nd on the depth chart

Roger McCreary to be 1st on the depth chart

Tate Ratledge to be 1st on the depth chart
Guard Tate Ratledge could also be in the mix, but it's much more likely he ends up the team's starter at right guard.
Waiting on the season to settle this.said Aug 22, 2026 Chuba Hubbard to be 1st on the depth chart
Brooks is going to cede even more work to Chuba Hubbard, who remains the favorite to lead the backfield at the start of the year, and quite possibly even Trevor Etienne or AJ Dillon.

Jadarian Price to be 1st on the depth chart
Veteran Zach Charbonnet is still recovering from a torn ACL and the Seahawks don’t have any other established backs on the roster, so Price figures to be playing a major role right out of the gate in Seattle.

At worst, Blake Corum will be the backup to Kyren Williams all season in what should be an outstanding Rams offense.
