The Seattle Seahawks' running back competition heats up as rookie Jadarian Price will not play in the remaining preseason games. Price's absence opens opportunities for Jacardia Wright, Velus Jones Jr., and Anthony Hankerson in the second preseason game against the Tennessee Titans. Both Wright and Jones are expected to see significant carries, while George Holani is anticipated to have limited offensive involvement. With Emanuel Wilson nursing a hamstring injury, the performances of Wright, Jones, and Hankerson could influence roster decisions as the regular season approaches.
