NFL Depth Charts This Week: Starting Lineups for Every Team

NFL depth charts for Week 7, Thursday, October 22 to Monday, October 26: the projected starters of all 32 teams at quarterback, running back, the three receiver spots, tight end and kicker, as ESPN’s depth charts listed them at 3:31 a.m. Eastern on Tuesday, October 20. Each cell shows the starter, then the next name at the position.

Of the 196 starters in this week’s 14 games, 21 are on ESPN’s injury report, including two quarterbacks: Lamar Jackson of the Ravens (Out) and Baker Mayfield of the Buccaneers (Out). A depth chart is an order on paper, and it can lag behind the injury report; teams settle game statuses on their last practice report of the week, so the page is rebuilt as those reports come in.

Starters on the injury report

Each player below is listed first at his position on ESPN’s depth chart while ESPN’s injury report carries a status for him. The last column is the name the depth chart lists next.

Out means the player will not play; Doubtful and Questionable are the league’s game statuses for a player whose availability is unlikely or uncertain; Injured Reserve is the roster list for a player kept out of games. Statuses set before a team’s final report of the week can still change.
