NFL roster and starting lineup preparations

Overview

As the 2026 NFL season approaches, teams are finalizing rosters and making critical decisions regarding starting lineups.

Early reports indicate the Las Vegas Raiders have named Kirk Cousins as their starting quarterback under head coach Klint Kubiak, while the Miami Dolphins are undergoing significant leadership changes following the departures of players such as Tua Tagovailoa and Tyreek Hill.

Subsequent updates show a trend toward veteran experience in quarterback selections. The Minnesota Vikings named Kyler Murray as their starter over J. J. McCarthy, and the Cleveland Browns confirmed Deshaun Watson as their starter ahead of Shedeur Sanders. Additionally, the Atlanta Falcons opted for Tua Tagovailoa based on camp preparation, and the Baltimore Ravens selected Jovaughn Gwyn as their starting center.
