Offensive Line Continuity Updates Entering NFL Week 1

Thomas Emerick
September 7, 2022

Earlier this offseason, I wrote about how the Chiefs’ and Chargers’ massive offensive line overhauls were quite extraordinary, both in how quickly they yielded success and how uniquely equipped they were to do so.

Still, the top offenses tend to return more than three offensive line incumbents on average, while the bottom 10 mostly don’t.

The Bengals hope to see immediate results from their offensive line rebuild, as the Chiefs and Chargers did last year in replacing four and five starters, respectively. The Steelers also replaced four starters entering 2021, and it didn’t go as well for them.

The Bengals and Giants are the only teams with just a single incumbent on their starting offensive line entering Week 1 in 2022. They will rely on

Maybe Quinshon Judkins Isn’t the Real Problem in Cleveland: Offensive Lines and Their Fantasy Impacts, Week 16

Thomas Emerick December 20, 2025

Several offensive lines got blitzed with injuries last week and managed varying levels of success with plugging the leak. Meanwhile, Buffalo had the welcome return of RT Spencer Brown to max out their continuity with five year-over-year starters rolling in late December. This catalyzed the rally down 21 in snowy Foxborough: only two combined pressures came from the offensive tackle position, bookended by Brown (one hurry,…...

The Eagles’ OL Health Could Decide Fantasy Championships: Offensive Lines and Their Fantasy Impacts, Week 15

Thomas Emerick December 13, 2025

The Eagles aren’t quite there yet, but it’s a situation to monitor. Landon Dickerson’s injury-marred year is disappointing, given that he was trending toward the discussion for best guard in the league. However, after a slow start, Dickerson did…...

How Much Can Mahomes Really Overcome? Offensive Lines and Their Fantasy Impacts, Week 14

Thomas Emerick December 6, 2025

Kansas City is on critical mass alert for injuries on the offensive line. That light flickered in the Super Bowl against Tampa Bay. It was less so injuries versus Philly last year and more quality of tackle play, which Josh Simmons had shored up earlier this season. However, the star rookie’s season went sideways, and he’s now on IR. Two KC stalwarts are doubtful for…...
