The Seattle Seahawks are evaluating running back Emanuel Wilson's chances of making the 53-man roster prior to Week 1. Wilson, signed to a one-year contract worth $1.6 million with limited guarantees, faces competition as the team prepares for a new season. With rookie Jadarian Price expected to lead the backfield alongside George Holani, Wilson's spot may depend on Zach Charbonnet's recovery from a torn ACL. If Charbonnet starts the season on the PUP list, Wilson could remain with the team as a third running back until Charbonnet's return.
