Two teams clinched playoff spots in Week 15, with the Los Angeles Rams and the Denver Broncos booking spots in the postseason.
However, the race for the No. 1 pick in the 2026 NFL Draft remains tight.
Here is the current draft order for the first round of the 2026 NFL Draft, ahead of Monday Night Football between the Miami Dolphins and the Pittsburgh Steelers:
Three teams remain tied in the fight for the No. 1 pick: The Giants, the Raiders, and the Titans. When it comes to the NFL Draft order, Strength of Schedule is the tiebreaker, with the team having the worst Strength of Schedule receiving the earlier pick.
Due to their Strength of Schedule, right now the Giants have the first pick, followed by the Raiders, and then the Titans.
