Overview
- Head coach Mike Macdonald said Charbonnet is expected to take all practices this week and that there is a chance he could play in some capacity if the team activates him.
- Seattle opened Charbonnet’s 21-day practice window earlier this month and must decide before the window closes whether to move him off PUP and onto the 53-man roster or leave him on PUP and make him ineligible for the rest of the season.
- Even if activated, the Seahawks plan to manage Charbonnet’s workload because he is returning from an ACL tear and surgery in February and has not played since last season.
- Rookie Jadarian Price remains on injured reserve with a chest injury and is not eligible to return for the upcoming game, leaving backups Emanuel Wilson and George Holani to handle most carries until starters are cleared.
- The possible return adds extra attention to Seattle’s game against Kansas City because Kenneth Walker III, who left Seattle in free agency, has been highly productive for the Chiefs and a Charbonnet comeback would change Seattle’s short-term game plan and personnel matchups.
