Overview
- Multiple reports say the Seahawks are hosting two-time Pro Bowl running back Joe Mixon for a visit and on-field workout as they evaluate a possible short-term signing.
- Seattle placed first-round rookie Jadarian Price on injured reserve after aggravating a chest injury and designated Zach Charbonnet to return to practice, opening a 21-day window while he continues ACL rehab.
- Mixon missed the entire 2025 season with a foot injury, was released by Houston in March with a non-football injury designation, and has not played since the 2024 postseason.
- Seattle’s current healthy options — Emanuel Wilson, George Holani and recent signee Velus Jones Jr. — lack Mixon’s starting experience and production, which is driving the team to examine an outside veteran.
- If Mixon clears medical checks the Seahawks could sign him to cover snaps until Charbonnet or Price are available, and his five 1,000-yard seasons and 7,428 career rushing yards explain why the team is taking an up-close look.
