Minnesota Vikings depth chart.

Every position on offense, defense and special teams, ranked from the starter down, as the team published it on October 7, 2026. Names in colour open that player’s full page — career stats, contract and outlook.

Quarterback, running back, receiver, tight end

The four positions people look up by name, with the usage behind the ordering. “WR2” and “18% of the targets” are very different claims, and only one of them is worth knowing.

The ordering is the team’s current chart. The shares beside it are 2026 rates from the nflverse play-by-play data — how a team actually used a player, not a projection. Where a player has since changed teams the share is tagged with the club he earned it at, because a new arrival’s carry share says nothing yet about how Minnesota Vikings will use him.
