The Seahawks placed RB Zach Charbonnet on the Physically Unable to Perform list ahead of training camp. Charbonnet tore his left ACL in January during the Divisional Round, and return timelines have ranged from October to December. So this move isn't a surprise. He could come off the list at any point during camp, but that still appears unlikely. He could also open the regular season on the PUP list, which would sideline him for at least four games.

Seahawks RB Zach Charbonnet will miss the rest of the playoffs after suffering an ACL tear in his left knee. Seattle originally believed the injury to be minor, but HC Mike Mcdonald announced Monday that he'd need surgery. ESPN's Adam Schefter reported the ACL tear.

Seahawks RB Zach Charbonnet injured his left knee in the second quarter of Saturday night's win over the 49ers and did not return. He was back on the sidelines riding a stationary bike in the second half, though. And HC Mike Macdonald said afterward that the knee is "okay structurally." That doesn't necessarily mean that Charbonnet will be available for next weekend's NFC Championship game, but it at least sounds like he dodged anything that would impact his 2026 season. We should learn more about Charbonnet early this coming week.

It's been a frustrating season for Kenneth Walker, and Week 14 was rock bottom. Walker crushed fantasy lineups with a season-low 3.8 PPR points in Seattle's 37-9 win in Atlanta. Walker carried 10 times for just 29 yards -- his lowest rushing output since Week 1. Walker's 3.8 points were the fewest points he's musterd in any game since Week 11 of the 2023 season -- a game he exited early with an injury.

Seahawks RB Zach Charbonnet (foot) is active for tonight's game vs. the Cardinals. He was a full participant in practice this week but listed as questionable on the final injury report. It's possible that Charbonnet is at least a bit limited tonight coming off the foot injury on a short week, leaving him as a risky Week 4 fantasy start. Check your Team Intel page to see if he makes sense in your starting lineup. The unknown with Charbonnet also gives RB Ken Walker a wide range of outcomes in this one.

Seahawks RB Zach Charbonnet (foot) is listed as questionable for Thursday night's game vs. the Cardinals. He put in a full week of practice, so we're expecting Charbonnet to play. It's possible, though, that his snaps are limited coming off the foot injury on a short week. We'll look for further updates on Charbonnet's Week 4 outlook. For now, he sits 28th in the RB rankings.

Seahawks RB Zach Charbonnet (foot) missed his second straight practice on Thursday. He's seemingly in real danger of missing this weekend's game vs. the Saints. Charbonnet's absence would turn RB Ken Walker into a workhorse -- and a top-12 fantasy play. We'll see how Charbonnet is listed on Friday's final injury report.

Seahawks RB Kenneth Walker has missed practice time with foot soreness. HC Mike Macdonald showed no concern over the injury on Saturday.

The Seahawks are hiring Klint Kubiak as their OC, according to NFL Network's Mike Garafolo. It'll be Kubiak's third OC gig, following stints with the Vikings (2021) and Saints (2024). That Vikings squad finished 12th in total yards and 14th in points. The 2024 Saints got off to a hot start, scoring 91 points over the first two games of the season. But they averaged just 16.5 points per game the rest of the way, due at least in part to injuries to QB Derek Carr and the offensive line. Kubiak's Saints ranked 19th in neutral pass rate and 25th in pass rate over expected. The 2021 Vikings -- quarterbacked by Kirk Cousins -- finished 12th in neutral pass rate and 17th in pass rate over expected. The 2025 Seahawks figure to be a more balanced offense than last year's version, which ranked third in neutral pass rate and sixth in pass rate over expected.

The Seahawks placed RB Ken Walker (ankle) on IR. That knocks him out for the final two games of the regular season -- and Seattle's first two playoff games if they advance. We'll look for more info on Walker's injury and whether it'll impact his 2025 offseason. His absence leaves RB Zach Charbonnet in a workhorse role.

Update: GM John Schneider said Walker has a high-ankle sprain. That figures to sideline him for a month or two but shouldn't impact his preparation for the 2025 season.

Seahawks RB Ken Walker injured his ankle in the fourth quarter of Sunday's game vs. the Vikings and was quickly deemed doubtful to return. That suggests an injury that might cost Walker more time beyond Week 16, especially with Seattle playing this Thursday night vs. the Bears. We'll update Walker's status when we know more. His absence against Chicago would make RB Zach Charbonnet a must-start.

Seahawks RBs Ken Walker (calf) and Zach Charbonnet (oblique) are off the final Week 16 injury report. Both guys put in full practices on Friday. Walker should return to his role as lead back, but there’s some chance that Charbonnet earned more work with his play over the last two weeks. It’s also a tough matchup against the Vikings’ third-ranked RB defense. It has Walker sitting a bit lower than usual in the Week 16 RB Rankings.

Seahawks RB Ken Walker (calf) is listed as doubtful for Sunday night’s game vs. the Packers. HC Mike Macdonald said earlier this week that the calf injury isn’t long term, so we’ll see if Walker can make it back for Week 16. His absence again leaves RB Zach Charbonnet in a feature role. He’s coming off a huge Week 15 and has averaged 18.0 carries, 5.3 targets, and 123 total yards in three games without Walker this season. Charbonnet checks in 11th in the Week 15 RB Rankings.

Seahawks RB Ken Walker (calf) did not practice on Wednesday. The ankle is off the injury report, but HC Mike Macdonald said earlier this week that the calf was the concern for Walker's Week 15 status. "He’s still day-to-day right now," Macdonald said Wednesday. "It got more kind of complicated as the week went on, so that’s why we had to do some more tests and stuff. But right now, there’s positive signs. So, we’ll just say day-to-day, I think is fair. But it’s not long-term." We'll see if Walker is able to practice tomorrow, but fantasy owners should start lining up alternatives for the week. Zach Charbonnet will be a top-15 RB play if Walker sits again.

The Seahawks on Saturday downgraded RB Kenneth Walker III from questionable to out for Sunday's game against the Cardinals. Walker's dealing with ankle and calf injuries that kept him out of practice Thursday and Friday. His absence elevates RB Zach Charbonnet to a lead role.

Seahawks RB Ken Walker (ankle, calf) did not practice on Thursday. That followed a limited practice on Wednesday. It's unclear if Walker had a setback yesterday or was just getting some rest today. We'll see what we learn from Friday's injury report. Zach Charbonnet would take over as Seattle's lead back vs. the Cardinals if Walker misses Sunday's game.

Seahawks RB Kenneth Walker III took control of the backfield in his return from an oblique injury Monday night. He claimed 86% of the team's RB carries in the loss to the Lions, rushing for 80 yards and 3 TDs on his 12 carries. RB Zach Charbonnet matched Walker with 5 targets but also trailed him in pass routes, 32-19, according to Pro Football Focus.

Seahawks RB Kenneth Walker III did not practice all week and has been given doubtful status for Week 2. It is highly unlikely that Walker will play against the Patriots, making RB Zach Charbonnet the lead back for the Seahawks with Kenny McIntosh as the back-up
