Seahawks | Seattle signs, cuts one on Saturday Sat Aug 8, 05:07 PM
Undrafted free-agent RB Justin J. Jones was signed by the Seattle Seahawks, according to a source on Saturday, Aug. 8. The Seahawks also waived LB Power Echols.
Link to storySeattle Seahawks RB Jadarian Price (undisclosed) did not participate in practice Friday, Aug. 7, because of an undisclosed reason.
| Footballguys view: The team updated Price's status to missing practice with "lower body soreness". The first-round pick who backed up Arizona Cardinals #3 overall pick Jeremiyah Love at Notre Dame has done everything you could have hoped to earn trust in the passing game and set himself up for a big Week 1 role. As long as his practice absence isn't extended, Price will remain prominent on the mid-round upside running back picks. |
Seattle Seahawks DB Brandon Johnson (undisclosed) was moved to the Reserve/Injured list Friday, Aug. 7, after clearing waivers.

Link to storySeattle Seahawks RB George Holani is currently looking like one of the top two options at running back alongside rookie RB Jadarian Price, according to ESPN's Brady Henderson, who writes that RB Emanuel Wilson would be mixed in as a 'powerful complement.'
| Footballguys view: It's not known when Zach Charbonnet will be ready to play or how the work will be split up once last year's co-starter returns after having ACL surgery in February. In the meantime, Holani, Price, and Wilson are all competing for their share of what's likely to be a three-player backfield committee. We'll be watching this backfield closely all month as we try to gain insight into their anticipated roles. Price is currently being drafted as RB26 while Holani is an afterthought at RB66. If Holani's current role persists, that price is a discount. |
Seattle Seahawks WR Jake Bobo (hamstring) may be dealing with a hamstring injury, a source told Gregg Bell of The Tacoma News Tribune.

Seattle Seahawks RB Zach Charbonnet has no set timetable for a return, but the Seahawks are 'going to be smart with him', in the opinion of Sports Illustrated's Albert Breer on Tuesday, July 28.
| Footballguys view: Breer went on to suggest that Charbonnet's readiness for Week 1 looms as "a potential close call" -- and the Seahawks are going to be smart with him, in the hopes that they get his best when it matters most. As such, first-round pick Jadarian Price is a pivotal figure. Even with all the talk about Charbonnet being ahead of schedule, his surgery didn't take place until February. The usual nine-month turnaround indicates a November return. We'll continue watching for more, but the Week 1 talk seems overly optimistic. |

Seattle Seahawks RB Jadarian Price is reportedly making the most of the opportunity before him and has impressed in the early days of training camp, in the opinion of The Seattle Times' Bob Condotta on Monday, July 27.
| Footballguys view: According to Condotta, what has stood out the most is Price's pass-catching and apparent knack for understanding pass protection. Those were two things he wasn't asked to do a lot at Notre Dame. Those were cited as concerns by many analysts when the Seahawks selected him 32nd overall. Head coach Mike Macdonald suggested that Price has a chance to become an immediate starter with Ken Walker III gone and Zach Charbonnet still sidelined while recovering from an ACL injury suffered in January. Contributing to the passing game would open the door to that. |
Seattle Seahawks TE AJ Barner (undisclosed) is 'feeling really good' after two offseason surgeries in the spring, according to a source on Monday, July 27. Barner avoided the Physically Unable to Perform (PUP) list and will likely have his reps in training camp managed.
| Footballguys view: As CBSSports.com suggested, Barner's availability to open camp is a positive early sign after he missed offseason workouts due to a pair of undisclosed surgeries. The 2024 fourth-rounder is looking to defend his role as the Seahawks' clear top tight end in a room that also includes second-year option Elijah Arroyo. Barner started all 17 regular-season games in 2025, totaling 52 catches (on 68 targets) for 519 yards and six touchdowns. |
Seattle Seahawks RB Kenny McIntosh will be waived by the Seahawks, according to a source on Monday, July 27.
| Footballguys view: The 2023 seventh-round pick began training camp on PUP while recovering from a torn ACL he suffered last summer. HC Mike Macdonald recently said McIntosh would return this season, but he left the impression it wouldn't be soon. |

Seattle Seahawks RB Jadarian Price has been used a lot in the passing game in the first few days of training camp. They've put him on the first-team, second-team and third-team offenses in 11-on-11 drills.
| Footballguys view: Price is in line for a major opportunity to replace Ken Walker III. GM John Schneider drafted Price, hoping that possibility would eventually come to fruition. How quickly the vision becomes reality depends on Price's early effectiveness. As USA Today notes, Walker ranked fourth on the Seahawks in receptions last season. There's a clear need to replace his production in the passing game. That new OC Brian Fleury is giving Price, who totaled just 15 receptions in three seasons at Notre Dame, the reps necessary to get up to speed is a good sign. We'll be watching for more. |
Seattle Seahawks S Nick Emmanwori's (ankle) availability for Week 1 is in question, head coach Mike Macdonald said Saturday, July 25.
| Footballguys view: Emmanwori's problem ankle got hurt in Week 1 - which caused him to miss three games - and then was reinjured in practice the week before the Super Bowl. He had surgery earlier in July, and the team surely won't rush him back. The Patriots, Cardinals, and Commanders open up the regular season schedule for Seattle and would benefit if Emmanwori is limited or out. |
Seattle Seahawks WR Tory Horton (shin) is participating in practice Saturday, July 25, after sitting out the offseason workouts because of his injury.

Seattle Seahawks S Nick Emmanwori (ankle) will miss some time during training camp following right ankle surgery, but he is expected to be ready for Week 1.
Link to storySeattle Seahawks TE Harrison Bryant was released Tuesday, July 21.
| Footballguys view: Bryant signed with the Seahawks in April after spending last season with the Texans. He has previously spent time with the Eagles, Raiders, and Browns. A.J. Barner and Elijah Arroyo are the tight ends of interest in this offense, although neither is being drafted as a front-line fantasy prospect. |

Seattle Seahawks RB Zach Charbonnet was placed on the PUP list on Wednesday, July 22, ahead of training camp.
| Footballguys view: Charbonnet can be activated from the list at any point in camp, but the timing of the injury means that it will likely be some time before the team will be moving him to the active roster. Charbonnet ran 184 times for 730 yards and 12 touchdowns last season. First-round pick Jadarian Price, George Holani, Emanuel Wilson, Velus Jones, and Jacardia Wright are the healthy options at running back in Seattle. |

Seattle Seahawks CB Devon Witherspoon is in deep discussions about a contract that would make him the highest-paid cornerback in the NFL Wednesday, July 22.

Seattle Seahawks CB Devon Witherspoon is close to agreeing to a new contract with the team, according to a report by the NFL Network's Ian Rapoport on Tuesday, July 21. The Seahawks have 'made an offer upwards of $30 million' (per season) to Witherspoon and indicated a deal could be close.

Free-agent CB Deantre Prince (Jaguars) reportedly will work out for the Seattle Seahawks, according to a source on Monday, July 20.
Link to storySeattle Seahawks S Nick Emmanwori (undisclosed) and CB Tyrone Broden (undisclosed) were placed on the Active/Physically Unable to Perform list Monday, July 20.
| Footballguys view: As Profootballtalk.com noted, it's currently unclear what landed Emmanwori on the PUP list, as he was a participant during the club's offseason program. But at this time of year, Emmanwori can come off the list to practice at any time. One of the league's best defensive rookies last year, Emmanwori tallied 81 total tackles with nine tackles for loss, 2.5 sacks, 11 passes defensed, and an interception in 14 regular-season games in 2025. We'll monitor his status as camp gets underway. |
Seattle Seahawks RB Kenny McIntosh (knee) was placed on the Active/Physically Unable to Perform list Monday, July 20.
| Footballguys view: McIntosh was joined by safety Nick Emmanwori and cornerback Tyrone Broden. McIntosh and Broden are both coming back from injuries that occurred last year, landing them on injured reserve, while Emmanwori was on the field for offseason workouts this spring and summer. Players on the physically unable to perform list are eligible to return at any time during training camp, then if they are on the PUP list when rosters are reduced to 53 players, they are required to miss a minimum of four games. The reporting on McIntosh has been vague, with an implied return but without a timetable given. |

Seattle Seahawks TEs Nick Kallerup and Eric Saubert are likely to return as run-blocking specialists, but neither player is guaranteed of a spot on the 53-man roster. FB Brady Russell, considered a hybrid fullback-tight end, could cost one of the players a job.

Seattle Seahawks WRs Irvin Charles, Emmanuel Henderson Jr., Cody White and Ricky White III are all candidates for the sixth receiver role, should the organization carry that many wideouts. WR Dareke Young (Raiders) filled that role as a gunner and special teams stalwart, but it's uncertain if the team will elect to go that route. Henderson might be the most proven special teams player for his good work at the University of Kansas in 2025.
Link to storySeattle Seahawks WR Jake Bobo is projected to be the fifth receiver on the 53-man roster, especially since the organization matched a two-year, $5.5 million offer sheet from the Jacksonville Jaguars.

Seattle Seahawks WR Rashid Shaheed could be poised for a big step forward as a receiver in 2026 after showing growing rapport with QB Sam Darnold during spring workouts.
| Footballguys view: Shaheed will be the #2 passing game option after Jaxon Smith-Njigba and should be a target in best ball leagues with his deep speed and big play ability. Shaheed would be the #1 beneficiary if defenses decide to make Darnold to throw to someone other than Smith-Njigba and devote double coverage to him more often this season. |
Seattle Seahawks RB Jadarian Price is considered the favorite to serve as the starting tailback with RB Kenneth Walker III (Chiefs) moving on, and RB Zach Charbonnet (knee) still likely to miss the start of the season recovering from a torn anterior cruciate ligament.
| Footballguys view: Charbonnet won't be back until the second half of October at the earliest, and some time in November is probably a more realistic target date, so he's not a good pick in leagues with short benches. 2024 UDFA George Holani will be the third down back to open the season and he and or free agent signing Emanuel Wilson could share early down work with Price if the team doesn't think he is ready for a big role after serving as Arizona #3 overall pick Jeremiyah Love's backup at Notre Dame. |

Seattle Seahawks FBs Robbie Ouzts and Brady Russell are considered locks to make the 53-man roster, and the position might even take on a larger role under new offensive coordinator Brian Fleury. Ouzts is expected to the primary fullback, with Russell working in a hybrid fullback-tight end role.
Link to storySeattle Seahawks WR Emmanuel Henderson Jr. (undisclosed) and DB Andre Fuller (undisclosed) were both recently placed on the Active/Non-Football Injury list to begin training camp but were immediately removed after passing physicals.
Link to storySeattle Seahawks DT Deven Eastern (undisclosed) was placed on the Active/Physically Unable to Perform list Saturday, July 18.
Link to storySeattle Seahawks TE AJ Barner said he believes he can play much better than he did during the 2025 season and is looking to be one of the best tight ends in the NFL.
| Footballguys view: Barner emerged as one of the Seahawks' top young offensive players last season, a tight end who is a threat in the passing game, especially in the red zone. But Barner, who's being drafted as TE24 despite last year's TE18 finish, isn't the only breakout candidate in his own position group; 2025 second-round pick Elijah Arroyo, could also play a more prominent role. With a former tight ends coach, Brian Fleury, taking over as offensive coordinator, there figures to be plenty of opportunities for tight ends to thrive in Seattle's offense. |
Seattle Seahawks RB Kenny McIntosh (knee) is expected to be cleared to play at some point during the 2026 regular season.
| Footballguys view: Like teammate Zach Charbonnet, McIntosh is rehabbing a torn ACL. It's not clear when either man will return to the field. Meanwhile, George Holani, who stepped up in place of Charbonnet during Seattle's playoff run, as well as free-agent signing Emanuel Wilson, will be competing with rookie Jadarian Price for reps. |

RB Jadarian Price, who projects to have a very big role as a rookie. Price will obviously get a lot of carries after last year's leading rusher, Ken Walker III, left Seattle in free agency, and last year's second-leading rusher, Zach Charbonnet, suffered a torn ACL in the divisional round of the playoffs. But Seahawks head coach Mike Macdonald said Price will contribute more than just running the ball. "We're going to run wide zone, and he's going to run wide zone," Macdonald said. "We're going to run some gap scheme. He's going to run some of that too, and then the pass game he can come alive, too . . . Then, he's a great special teams player as well. The kick return stuff, we'll see how it shakes out in other phases, but he's going to come in and compete with the rest of the guys."
| Footballguys view: As Profootballtalk.com notes, NFL teams rarely make their starting running back a kick returner, but Price was a big-play kickoff returner at Notre Dame, returning 22 kickoffs for 794 yards (an average of 36.1 yards per return) and three touchdowns. The Seahawks believe Price will make a lot of plays with the ball in his hands, and they want to give him every opportunity to have the ball in his hands. Seahawks rookies reported to camp on Friday. We'll be watching Price's progress closely. |
Seattle Seahawks WR Tory Horton (shin) is expected to be a participant once training camp starts. He missed offseason workouts because of his shin injury.
| Footballguys view: Horton burst onto the scene early in the 2025 season by catching a touchdown in three of his first five games. In the final game of his rookie season, Horton caught four passes for 48 yards and two touchdowns. But Rashid Shaheed had a strong offseason, and the Seahawks gave him a new contract with the expectation that he'll produce more than he did after his arrival last year. According to SI.com, Seattle needs somebody to complement Jaxon Smith-Njigba, whose target share of nearly 36% last season was the highest of any player since 2012. |
Seattle Seahawks CB Devon Witherspoon had a career-high four quarterback pressures in the Super Bowl. He had six pass rushes total and recorded a sack and forced a pick-six. He also allowed two receptions for 16 yards on 47 coverage snaps.

Seattle Seahawks WR Rashid Shaheed could emerge as the team's WR2 in 2026, according to ESPN's Seth Walder.
| Footballguys view: While Shaheed delivered a kick return touchdown in the playoffs, his receiving production after he was traded to Seattle was lower than expected. Shaheed recorded 1.8 yards per route run with the Saints in the first half of 2025 but only 1.1 with Seattle, postseason included. Still, with a full offseason as a Seahawk, Walder believes Shaheed could be a productive No. 2 option behind Jaxon Smith-Njigba. With a WR56 ADP and 11th-round price, taking a chance on him as your WR5 isn't cost-prohibitive. |
Seattle Seahawks RB George Holani received the bulk of the snaps with the first-team offense during the Seahawks' six full-squad practice sessions that were open to reporters, according to ESPN.com's Brady Henderson. Holani, Jadarian Price and Emanuel Wilson are expected to share playing time in the Seattle backfield while RB Zach Charbonnet (knee) recovers from a torn anterior cruciate ligament.
| Footballguys view: Holani is squarely in Seattle's backfield plans for 2026 as he looks to build off his strong finish to 2025, when he performed well as a fill-in for Charbonnet. According to Footballguy Matt Waldman, Holani has agility, contact balance, and solid speed for his size. He has worked his way from undrafted free-agent status to potential playing time if he can hold off Wilson, as Charbonnet's projected early-season return is too optimistic. |
Zach Charbonnet player page
Seattle Seahawks RB Jadarian Price 'looked plenty capable as a pass catcher' during spring practices, according to Brady Henderson of ESPN.com.
| Footballguys view: Price didn't amass many targets in college, but that was largely due to Notre Dame's system rather than a knock on his skill set. Price is a fluid mover who has soft hands, so this shouldn't come as a huge surprise. Especially with Zach Charbonnet expected to miss the early part of the year, Price could find a valuable role as the Seahawks' pass-catching back. |
