Tory Horton Doesn't Practice Monday, Dealing with a "Few Things"

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Tory Horton (undisclosed) did not participate in practice on Monday, according to Corbin Smith of Emerald City Spectrum. Head coach Mike Macdonald didn't provide any specifics on his injury, other than saying that Horton is "dealing with a few things." The 23-year-old had 13 catches across eight games as a rookie last year, and he found the end zone at an absurd rate, scoring five touchdowns. As it stands, he enters the 2026 season as the Seahawks' No. 3 receiver behind Jaxon Smith-Njigba, Cooper Kupp, and Rashid Shaheed. He could end up getting on the fantasy radar if he puts together a strong start to the regular season, but that would first require him to recover from his current injury situation. He now ranks as RotoBaller's WR103 in redraft leagues and WR81 in dynasty leagues.

Jadarian Price a Full-Go for Majority of Monday's Reps

Seattle Seahawks rookie first-round running back Jadarian Price (lower body) was back at training camp practice on Monday and took most of the reps, according to Seahawks reporter Brian Nemhauser. It was a non-contact session for the Seahawks on Monday, but it is still progress for the 22-year-old, who should be fully ready for the start of the 2026 regular season in early September. After being rested in the preseason opener on Saturday against the Dallas Cowboys, Price could be cleared to get some work this Sunday in the second preseason contest against the Tennessee Titans. Zach Charbonnet (knee) is not going to be ready for the start of the regular season, which puts Price in position to be a key contributor in Seattle's backfield right away. George Holani will also have a role, but Price's explosiveness and big-play ability should make him the more attractive short- and long-term fantasy option at the RB position. It might be tough for Price to carve out a big pass-catching role, but with enough early down work, he should be a nice low-end RB2/high-end RB3/flex target in upcoming fantasy drafts.

Emanuel Wilson Dealing with Hamstring Injury

Seattle Seahawks running back Emanuel Wilson (hamstring) did not play in the team's preseason opener against the Dallas Cowboys on Saturday. His absence was likely caused by a hamstring injury that he suffered in a scrimmage during practice on Tuesday. The good news is that head coach Mike Macdonald said Wilson's injury "is a short-term thing," so we should see him back on the field relatively soon. Prior to the hamstring ailment, the 27-year-old had been running with the first-team offense. Zach Charbonnet (knee) continues to recover from an ACL tear, so Wilson projects to start at running back when the Seahawks take the field in Week 1 of the regular season against the New England Patriots. As long as Charbonnet is sidelined, Wilson ranks as a low-end RB2 or high-end RB3 in fantasy football.

George Holani Leads Seattle's Backfield in Carries on Saturday

Seattle Seahawks running back George Holani played with the No. 2 offense in Saturday's preseason opener against the Dallas Cowboys. He recorded 12 carries for 42 yards. While Holani's performance was not indicative of much, his presence on the field suggested that rookie running back Jadarian Price may have already usurped him on the depth chart. Price did not play on Saturday, along with all of the first-team skill players. The Seahawks have made it clear all offseason that Holani is part of their plan for 2026. However, this game suggests that he may be little more than an insurance back for fantasy this season. If Price opens the year as the lead back, and Zach Charbonnet eventually returns from injury, Holani could become a bit of an afterthought.

Drew Lock Efficient in Preseason Week 1

Seattle Seahawks quarterback Drew Lock drew the start in Saturday's preseason game against the Dallas Cowboys. He went 9/13 for 40 yards and an opening drive touchdown pass. Lock looked comfortable in an offense run by new offensive coordinator Brian Fleury. While Lock is clearly the backup to Sam Darnold, the opening drive provided a nice look at what Fleury may bring to the table. He is a first-time play caller, and the biggest variable for the Seahawks' offensive success considering the departure of Klint Kubiak. If Lock can be this efficient and effective in an opening game script under Fleury, hopefully that will also translate to Darnold and the rest of the offense.

Jalen Milroe Inconsistent in Preseason Week 1

Seattle Seahawks quarterback Jalen Milroe took over for Drew Lock on the team's third drive against the Cowboys on Saturday. Milroe went 5/8 for 36 yards. He also added five carries for 36 yards and recovered his own fumble. After Lock led the offense to a touchdown on the opening drive, Milroe was unable to capture that magic. In 2025, fantasy managers were excited for the prospect of Milroe receiving some rushing work in this offense. Instead, he spent much of the season inactive as the team went in a different direction. Milroe looks like he may not be pushing for the backup job this season either. For now, he remains irrelevant in fantasy despite possessing solid upside should he ever receive a chance to start in the NFL.

Montorie Foster Jr. Catches Seahawks' Lone Touchdown in Preseason Week 1

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Montorie Foster Jr. caught five passes for 36 yards and a touchdown in Seattle's preseason loss to the Cowboys. Foster earned seven targets in this game as the 2025 undrafted free agent looks to earn a spot on the active roster this season. Foster's path to the roster will be difficult. Jaxon Smith-Njigba, Cooper Kupp, Tory Horton, and Rashid Shaheed are all locks to make the team. Jake Bobo is a favorite in the locker room and seems likely to make the team as well. That leaves Foster to compete with rookie Emmanuel Henderson Jr. and Ricky White III for a potential sixth wide receiver spot. Although his odds are long for Foster, it was nice to see that Seattle possesses solid depth at the position behind the household names.

Elijah Arroyo Plays With No. 2 Offense in Preseason Opener

Seattle Seahawks tight end Elijah Arroyo played in Seattle's preseason opener against the Cowboys on Saturday. He recorded one reception for 12 yards. Given that Seattle did not play its first-team offense, Arroyo's playing time suggests that the 2025 second-round pick is squarely behind AJ Barner at the top of the depth chart. Barner broke out in 2025 while Arroyo struggled through injuries. The team will likely employ two-tight end sets relatively often, which means Arroyo should see the field quite a bit. However, it is clear that the tight end of value for fantasy will be Barner. Arroyo is a talented player who could eventually emerge in this offense, but for now he is best left on waivers until he proves himself on the field.

Jalen Milroe Rushes and Passes for 36 Yards in Week 1 of Preseason

Seattle Seahawks quarterback Jalen Milroe completed five of his eight pass attempts for 36 passing yards during Saturday's preseason loss against the Dallas Cowboys. He didn't have a touchdown or interception, but he did take three sacks. On a more positive note, he showcased impressive mobility with 36 rushing yards on five rushing attempts. We saw the Seahawks pull Sam Darnold to the sideline to give Milroe some designed runs last year, and given how well he moved in Week 1 of the preseason, we could see more of the same in 2026. With that being said, Darnold is the quarterback of the immediate future for Seattle, so as long as he's healthy, Milroe's role is limited to the occasional change-of-pace play here and there. As a result, he's avoidable in all redraft leagues, and he has dropped to QB43 in RotoBaller's latest dynasty fantasy football rankings.

Devon Witherspoon Agrees to Record-Setting Extension with Seahawks

The Seattle Seahawks and cornerback Devon Witherspoon have agreed to a record-setting four-year, $132 million contract extension, according to Adam Schefter of ESPN. Per Schefter, the contract includes over $101 million guaranteed and will make Witherspoon the highest-paid cornerback in NFL history. The fifth overall pick in the 2023 NFL Draft, Witherspoon has established himself as one of the best defensive players in the league and was a critical part of the Seahawks' run to the Super Bowl in 2025. The 25-year-old has made the Pro Bowl in each of his first three NFL seasons and was named second-team All-Pro in 2025. Across 12 games last season, he recorded 48 solo tackles, seven passes defensed, and one interception. With this new extension agreement, Witherspoon will continue to lead Seattle's secondary for the foreseeable future.

DeMarcus Lawrence Entering his Final Season in 2026

Seattle Seahawks defensive end DeMarcus Lawrence told Yahoo Sports' Jori Epstein that the 2026 season "will be my last year." The 34-year-old is entering his 13th NFL campaign and is coming off a productive first year in Seattle that ended with him lifting the Lombardi Trophy. Lawrence also made the Pro Bowl for the fifth time in his career by recording 53 tackles (24 solo), six sacks, 11 tackles for loss, 20 QB hits, three forced fumbles, and three fumble recoveries (two returned for touchdowns) in 16 regular-season starts. It was a nice bounce-back season for the former second-rounder by the Dallas Cowboys in 2014 from Boise State after he played in a career-low four games in 2024 due to injury in his final year in Dallas. "It was a tough process," Lawrence said. "But through the grace of God, I'm able to play another year and soak it all up one more good time before I hang it up." Lawrence hasn't recorded double-digit sacks since 2018, but he's recorded 67.5 sacks in his 12-year career.

Sam Darnold Won't Play in Preseason Opener Against Dallas

Seattle Seahawks head coach Mike Macdonald said that quarterback Sam Darnold will not play in the team's preseason opener on Saturday against the Dallas Cowboys, according to FOX 13 Seattle's Curtis Crabtree. Backup QBs Drew Lock and Jalen Milroe will likely rotate series instead of handing off. Darnold surprised everyone by winning the Super Bowl over the New England Patriots in his first year in Seattle in 2025. The 29-year-old former third overall pick from USC in 2018 has been a Pro Bowler in back-to-back seasons now as a late-bloomer in the NFL, and he's thrown for over 4,000 yards with an even 60 touchdowns and 26 interceptions in 34 regular-season starts with the Seahawks and Minnesota Vikings. Darnold has arguably one of the top receivers in the game to work with in Jaxon Smith-Njigba, but his strong season in 2025 with Seattle culminated in only a QB13 finish in fantasy. He's now learning a new offense and doesn't have star RB Kenneth Walker around in the backfield, which screams regression. Darnold might have a solid QB2 floor in fantasy, but he's merely a bench stash in single-QB, 12-team leagues.

Jadarian Price "On the Mend," Won't Play on Saturday

Seattle Seahawks rookie first-round running back Jadarian Price (lower body) will not play in the team's preseason opener on Saturday against the Dallas Cowboys, according to Curtis Crabtree of FOX 13 Seattle. "He's on the mend," head coach Mike Macdonald said. Price has been slowly returned to training camp practice after dealing with lower-body soreness in the last week. With Zach Charbonnet (knee) already not expected to be ready for Week 1 of the 2026 season, the Seahawks are understandably playing it safe with their new first-round investment in the backfield. Price was listed as the RB2 behind George Holani on the first unofficial depth chart of the preseason, but if healthy, he's expected to have a significant role early in his rookie season as Charbonnet continues to rehab. He has a bright NFL future long-term, but fantasy managers need to temper expectations early on in what is shaping up to be a committee backfield, making Price an RB3/flex target in upcoming drafts, at best.

Emanuel Wilson Still Fighting for Early-Season Touches

Seattle Seahawks running back Emanuel Wilson had a real chance to climb the depth chart this summer, especially with Zach Charbonnet still rehabbing a torn ACL. So far, it hasn't happened. Seattle's first unofficial depth chart lists George Holani first, first-round rookie Jadarian Price second and Wilson third. Price recently missed time with lower-body soreness, but Mike Macdonald called it minor and said he should be back within days. Wilson at least has proof he can handle a bigger workload. He ran 125 times for 496 yards and three touchdowns for Green Bay last season, and when Josh Jacobs sat against Minnesota, Wilson turned 28 carries into 107 yards and two scores. At 5-foot-10, 226 pounds, he has the build for early-down work. The issue is getting enough of it. Seattle spent the 32nd pick on Price, Holani has stayed ahead of Wilson throughout the offseason, and Charbonnet will eventually return. Wilson is still worth watching if injuries hit, but standard redraft managers can look elsewhere for now.

Tory Horton Looks Fast and Ready for Second Season

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Tory Horton looks "fast and ready" for his second NFL season. Horton's efficient rookie season was cut short by a shin stress fracture that required surgery. Now healthy and fully participating in camp, former wideout Bryan Walters says, "I've been loving watching Tory Horton back and healthy. He looks fast again out there. He looks like he's ready to pick up where he left off." Horton is likely to be a rotational player behind Jaxon Smith-Njigba, Rashid Shaheed, and veteran Cooper Kupp. While he has immense upside if given the opportunity, he is likely to be non-fantasy-relevant in 2026.

Terrion Arnold Plans to Sign With Seahawks

Former Detroit Lions cornerback Terrion Arnold plans to sign with the Seattle Seahawks, sources told Adam Schefter of ESPN. Arnold has also visited with the Houston Texans, New Orleans Saints, and New York Giants. The NFL must next decide whether to put Arnold on the commissioner's exempt list after he was arrested on felony charges in connection with a robbery and kidnapping in February, which is why the Lions released him earlier this year. The 23-year-old was originally taken with the 24th overall pick in the 2024 NFL draft from the University of Alabama, and he recorded 91 tackles (70 solo), an interception, 18 pass breakups, and a fumble recovery in 24 games (22 starts) in his first two years in the league with the Lions. Arnold only played in eight games for Detroit last season. If he's allowed to play in 2026, Arnold will give the defending Super Bowl-champion Seahawks more depth in their defensive backfield.

Barion Brown Draws Comparison to Former Saints Wideout

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Barion Brown received a pretty notable comparison from Chris Olave on Thursday. According to Erin Summers, Olave said Brown reminds him a lot of former Saints receiver Rashid Shaheed, adding that the two are "basically the same player." Brown came to New Orleans as a sixth-round pick after finishing his college career with 175 catches for 2,060 yards and 12 touchdowns. His return work stands out even more. Brown averaged 29.4 yards on 65 kickoff returns and took six of them for touchdowns, an SEC career record. He has also been making plays as a receiver in camp, with Kellen Moore praising his progress earlier this month and the Saints noting that Brown was on the receiving end of several deep balls early in camp. New Orleans has plenty of competition at receiver, including Chris Olave, first-round pick Jordyn Tyson, Devaughn Vele and fourth-round pick Bryce Lance. Brown may not have an immediate redraft role, but he is giving dynasty managers something to watch.

Rashid Shaheed to be Major Factor in 2026

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Rashid Shaheed is expected to be a major factor in 2026, according to ESPN's Jeremy Fowler. Fowler wrote in his 2026 NFL Training Camp Buzz that Shaheed has been moving around the formation at camp, including time in the backfield. A full offseason in Seattle makes him a more viable option across the field, from short to deep. The former Saints playmaker was traded to the Seahawks at last season's trade deadline and hauled in 15 of 26 targets for 188 yards and no touchdowns in nine games. With a full offseason to get acclimated to the offense and build chemistry with quarterback Sam Darnold, Shaheed could be a great value in the late rounds of fantasy leagues this season.

Jadarian Price Returns to Team Drills on Wednesday

Seattle Seahawks rookie first-round running back Jadarian Price (lower body) returned to team drills in training camp practice on Wednesday for the first time in five practices, according to Gregg Bell of The Tacoma News Tribune. It should be noted that Wednesday was a walkthrough session as the team gets ready to face off against the Dallas Cowboys in their preseason opener this Saturday. The 22-year-old is in line for a key role immediately in his first year in the NFL in Seattle as the Seahawks look to replace Kenneth Walker. Along with Price, George Holani and Emanuel Wilson will be involved until Zach Charbonnet (knee) returns from a torn ACL that he suffered last postseason. While Price will certainly have a role early on, fantasy managers will want to be careful not to overvalue the Notre Dame product in a backfield that could change significantly once Charbonnet returns. Price has a wide-open opportunity to become the favorite for early-down work in Seattle, but he likely won't see enough weekly work to be much more than a low-end RB2/high-end RB3/flex.

Zach Charbonnet  • RB  •  Seahawks

Zach Charbonnet Still Has Late-Round Stash Appeal

Seattle Seahawks running back Zach Charbonnet (knee) is hard to trust for September, but he is still worth remembering late in redraft leagues. Charbonnet ran 184 times for 730 yards and 12 touchdowns last season, with seven of those scores coming on 16 carries from inside the five-yard line. He also caught 20 passes for 144 yards. The problem is obvious: Charbonnet tore the ACL in his left knee during Seattle's divisional-round win over San Francisco and did not have surgery until Feb. 20. He remains on the PUP list, and the Seahawks have said a Week 1 return looks unlikely. Seattle also used the 32nd overall pick on Jadarian Price, so Charbonnet will not simply walk back into the job Kenneth Walker III left behind. George Holani and Emanuel Wilson are part of the mix, too. Even so, Charbonnet is a 6-foot-1, 220-pound back who already showed Seattle can trust him near the goal line, and RotoBaller has him all the way down at RB60. If your bench is deep enough to wait on him, there is still useful second-half upside here.
