Mike Macdonald to decide on Zach Charbonnet's practice return Thursday

Summary

Seattle Seahawks head coach Mike Macdonald will determine by Thursday if running back Zach Charbonnet can resume practicing. Charbonnet is recovering from a torn ACL but opened the season on the reserve/physically unable to perform list, meaning he cannot play until Week 5. Macdonald indicated the decision involves more than Charbonnet's health, referencing team considerations and an upcoming game against Denver. Charbonnet’s return could affect the Seahawks' running back rotation, as rookie Jadarian Price has struggled with fumbles amidst a challenging schedule.
