Every depth chart calls take
2276–2300 of 4,787
Drew Allar to be 1st on the depth chart
it's hard to imagine Allar not being the lead candidate to start for the Steelers next season
Jabbar Muhammad to be 5th on the depth chart
he did show enough to think that he has solidifed his spot as the Jaguars' No. 5 cornerback
Dante Trader Jr. to be 1st on the depth chart
Projected starter Dante Trader Jr. was back at practice Monday, and even though he was held out of team periods could be close to making a full return.
Malik Nabers to be 1st on the depth chart
Nabers will likely step in and work as Jaxson Dart's No. 1 target, soaking up volume and opening the field for everyone else.
Jaylin Noel to be 1st on the depth chart
When he's back to 100%, he'll have a route to finding notable snaps as Houston's slot receiver, especially deeper into the season.
Breece Hall to be 1st on the depth chart
Giving Allen an expanded role would also allow the Jets to ease Hall back into the RB1 job once he returns.
Braelon Allen to be 2nd on the depth chart
Allen is more than capable of leading a backfield... Those would be fantastic RB2 numbers.
Alex Forsyth to be 1st on the depth chart
It wouldn't be a shock if the plan is for Forsyth, the club's primary backup center, to run with the first-team offense on Friday night — that is, unless Wattenberg has a sudden return to full activity during team periods of practice this week.
Tua Tagovailoa to be 1st on the depth chart
The Falcons are still without Michael Penix Jr. in game settings as his knee rehab continues, meaning Tagovailoa is the de-facto QB1 in a pretty dismal quarterback competition.
Quinn Ewers to be 2nd on the depth chart
Chances of bouncing back: Medium. He'll still be Willis' backup, only playing if Willis gets hurt.
Malik Willis to be 1st on the depth chart
He'll still be Willis' backup, only playing if Willis gets hurt.
Mason Rudolph to be 2nd on the depth chart
He's not even likely to be Rodgers' backup, an honor that probably will go to veteran Mason Rudolph.
Darnell Mooney to be 2nd on the depth chart
the top three spots are likely going to him, Darnell Mooney and rookie Malachi Fields
Malik Nabers to be 1st on the depth chart
Assuming Malik Nabers is healthy, the top three spots are likely going to him, Darnell Mooney and rookie Malachi Fields.
Malachi Fields to be 3rd on the depth chart
the top three spots are likely going to him, Darnell Mooney and rookie Malachi Fields
Aaron Rodgers to be 1st on the depth chart
They're not they're not benching rogers... They're not benching rogers.
Carnell Tate to be 1st on the depth chart
I'm not even talking about Cardinal Tate. We expect him to be the one
Fernando Mendoza to be 1st on the depth chart
But let's start with the Raiders. Fernando Mendoza will be the Raiders' starting quarterback by Halloween... We'll put by November.
Josh Metellus to be 1st on the depth chart
Instead, they're counting on Metellus, who's beginning his seventh year with Minnesota.
Riley Leonard to be 3rd on the depth chart
if Thursday night was any indication, Leonard might have just fallen behind Anthony Richardson
Anthony Richardson to be 2nd on the depth chart
With Daniel Jones coming off a torn Achilles, the backup QB job is an important one in Indianapolis this year, and if Thursday night was any indication, Leonard might have just fallen behind Anthony Richardson.
Gardner Minshew to be 2nd on the depth chart
They signed Gardner Minshew to be the backup, and it's just for this year... So what does he need to do to supplant Gardner Minto as QB two
Jacoby Brissett to be 1st on the depth chart
And Jacoby Brissett right now is the best starting quarterback to the cardinals opt the option that the cardinals have... So if I had to guess right now, yeah, Jacoby, Gardner, Carson
Carson Beck to be 3rd on the depth chart
But as it sits and as it's gonna roll into the, you know, at least the first six weeks, if not two months of the season, Carson Beck's QB three. Carson Beck's QB three.
Rashan Gary to be 1st on the depth chart
Rashan Gary is an every-week starter
