PHI depth chart — 2026

all 32 charts · published order beside measured opportunity

2025 regular-season opportunity (18 weeks)

first non-fallback render after 2026-09-24

why this ordering is not this season

There is no 2026 measured usage. The nflverse stats_player release has no 2026 weekly asset yet (HTTP 404 for https://github.com/nflverse/nflverse-data/releases/download/stats_player/stats_player_week_2026.parquet); the first regular-season file is expected ~2026-09-14. This ordering is 2025 data against the 2026 published depth chart, which is a real comparison and is NOT a claim about this season.

what this order rests on8 statements
  • opportunity = carries + targets, from nflverse stats_player_week. It is NOT a snap count: that file carries 150 columns and none of them is one. A player who ran routes and saw no target and a player who never left the sideline are indistinguishable in this number.
  • The ordering is NOT 2026 data. There is no 2026 measured usage. The nflverse stats_player release has no 2026 weekly asset yet (HTTP 404 for https://github.com/nflverse/nflverse-data/releases/download/stats_player/stats_player_week_2026.parquet); the first regular-season file is expected ~2026-09-14. This ordering is 2025 data against the 2026 published depth chart, which is a real comparison and is NOT a claim about this season. The first non-fallback render is after 2026-09-24, which is seventeen days after the draft.
  • The published depth chart is NOMINAL. This snapshot is preseason and has never been read against a played game; no row here says who was actually on the field.
  • Position appears twice and the columns are not interchangeable. `chartPosition` is where the team lists him and `scoredPosition` is what he is scored as; 2 of the 909 skill rows disagree (Jackson Meeks, chart TE / crosswalk WR; Velus Jones Jr., chart RB / crosswalk WR).
  • A null opportunity means UNOBSERVED, never zero. 365 of 909 players carry one. A player absent from the DynastyProcess crosswalk is not absent from the NFL: 115 of 909 skill rows (12.7%) are absent from it at deep ranks, and no key choice touches that — the miss is a property of the crosswalk, not of the key. This counts rows with NO crosswalk entry, which is not the same population as rows with no gsis id: one player IS in the crosswalk and carries no id, so that second count is one higher. The sentence above is the first of the two.
  • `posRank` is PER-POSITION, not per-slot. A `posRank <= 2` filter on WR excludes the WR3.
  • 137 of the 544 players carrying a 2025 opportunity earned most of it for a team other than the one they are listed under here — QB 20, RB 32, WR 60, TE 25. 32 of the 32 teams carry at least one, so there is no clean page and no "nothing to see here" state to reach for. THIS IS NOT A DATA GAP; IT IS THE READING. A number printed under a team that did not earn it, with nothing on the row saying so, is the defect. `priorTeam` on every player is the correction, and it is never defaulted to the team the row is listed under.
  • 19 players on this chart appeared for more than one team in 2025, so the single number beside the name is a sum of two rooms rather than a count from one. 9 of them have a primary team EQUAL to the team they are listed under, so a marker that fires only when the team changed says nothing at all about them. The largest: Jakobi Meyers is listed under JAX showing 115, of which 66 was earned in that room — the printed number is 74% larger than what he did here. The split is therefore carried for all 19 of them on each team's `multiTeam`, not only for the ones a change-marker catches, and an arm at zero opportunity is carried too (4 of them have one): he was on that sheet for those weeks and saw nothing, which is an observation and not a gap. The rule that picks the primary team has three clauses — most opportunity, then most weeks, then the team code ascending — and on this artifact only the first is ever reached: no player here has two arms level on opportunity, so nothing on this file depends on the other two.
what moved, 2026-08-18 to 2026-08-258 changes

what moved, 2026-08-18 to 2026-08-25

7 days of the published 2026 chart, both endpoints present. Checked again against 2026-08-26.

The filter is a rank cut — QB, RB and TE to 2, WR to 3 — and it is the whole of it: it takes 90.9 changes a week down to 24.0, and counting one event for one event takes that to 16.7 a week (skill positions (pos_abb QB/RB/WR/TE), in-season Tuesday-to-Tuesday, 2025 asset, 16 spans from 2025-09-09 to 2025-12-30, measured 2026-08-28). Depth-1 confirmation removes none of it — it is a label, and if it filtered it would move only 4.7% of the rows. Some reverts survive both: a change that holds for a day and flips on the second is marked confirmed and reverted anyway, and a depth that caught it would suppress real reversals to do it.

0 — a name that was not in a top slot is in one

No name arrived in a top slot on the PHI chart over this span. That is a reading, not a missing feed: 0 changes of any kind on the PHI chart.

0 — the same names, in a different order on the PHI chart

No group kept its names and changed their order on the PHI chart over this span.

backfield — unestablished

The shares below are measured. The classification is not, and this screen does not supply one.

Saquon Barkley — 75.3% of the room, earned in PHI · Tank Bigsby — 15.3% of the room, earned in PHI

Both of these backs earned their 2025 opportunity in PHI.

why no band was derived

No handcuff band is established. Deriving one from the 2025 distribution was attempted and refused: across the 32 teams the RB1 share of the room's 2025 opportunity runs 38.9% to 95.7% with a largest interior gap of 7.6 pp, and 32 points drawn uniformly on that range produce a gap that large 29.3% of the time (100,000 trials). The distribution is not bimodal, so there is no trough to put a threshold in, and a round number would be a guess wearing a measurement's clothes. The shares below are measured; the verdict is not. NOTE the population: they are the 2026 room's 2025 opportunity, so a back who changed teams carries his old volume into his new room and this describes no backfield that existed in 2025.
