The Seattle Seahawks made a notable change in their backfield, selecting Jadarian Price with the 32nd pick in the 2026 NFL draft after Kenneth Walker III signed with the Kansas City Chiefs. Following Walker's departure, Zach Charbonnet is recovering from a significant ACL injury, while George Holani is anticipated to take on a more prominent role. The Seahawks also signed Emanuel Wilson as they adjust their running back strategy under new offensive coordinator Brian Fleury, who is expected to prioritize a strong rushing attack. Price is seen as a potential key contributor, though the crowded backfield raises questions for fantasy football players.
