Seattle Seahawks RB Zach Charbonnet (knee) is expected to play at some point during the 2026 regular season, according to head coach Mike Macdonald.
Huddle Up: Charbonnet suffered the injury during the playoffs, so there is a good chance that he will miss at least the first half of the season. Fantasy players can keep an eye on the situation because he will have fantasy value once he returns. Emanuel Wilson and George Holani could share playing time while Charbonnet is sidelined and can be possible No. 3 fantasy backs or flex options.

Seattle Seahawks RB Zach Charbonnet's (knee) "surgery went well" and his prognosis is good, according to general manager John Schneider.
Huddle Up: While it remains to be seen if Charbonnet will be ready for the start of the season, he will likely split carries with the newly acquired Emanuel Wilson whenever he is ready for action. Assuming the Seahawks deploy a similar approach with Charbonnet and Wilson as they did with Kenneth Walker III and Charbonnet, Charbonnett will likely be a solid flex option with RB2 upside because of his touchdown potential.

Seattle Seahawks RB Zach Charbonnet (knee) underwent surgery Friday, Feb. 20, to repair his torn anterior cruciate ligament.
Huddle Up: Fantasy players will need to monitor the situation to see if Charbonnet will be able to participate in training camp since he suffered the injury during the playoffs. There is a chance that he will be the main running back if Kenneth Walker does not re-sign, but his return date is uncertain at this point. He should see a good amount of touches even if Walker returns and can be at least a No. 3 running back in leagues.

Seattle Seahawks RB Kenneth Walker III is expected to serve as the team's workhorse running back in the NFC Championship Game versus the Los Angeles Rams, with RB Zach Charbonnet (knee) sidelined. RBs Cam Akers and George Holani will serve as backups, according to a source, with several packages designed for each player.
Huddle Up: Walker had three touchdowns and 116 rushing yards in last week's Divisional Round playoff game versus the San Francisco 49ers and should be treated as a must-start option in all fantasy formats, especially given his success facing the Rams' defense this season. Both Holani and Akers can be viewed as flex options in playoff fantasy leagues.

Seattle Seahawks RB Zach Charbonnet (knee) was placed on injured reserve on Friday, Jan. 23.
Huddle Up: George Holani will likely pick up the workload that Charbonnet is giving up by being injured. The bulk of the backfield work, though, remains to be done by Kenneth Walker III.

Updating a previous report, Seattle Seahawks RB Zach Charbonnet (knee) suffered a torn anterior cruciate ligament during the Divisional Round playoff game, according to a source.
Huddle Up: Charbonnet will likely miss all of the offseason workouts, so fantasy players will need to see what he can do during training camp. He is a productive player when healthy and likely will be at least a No. 3 fantasy running back next season.

Seattle Seahawks RB Zach Charbonnet (knee) suffered a significant knee injury during the Divisional Round playoff game and will need to undergo surgery, according to head coach Mike Macdonald.
Huddle Up: Kenneth Walker III will receive most of the work at running back with Charbonnet out and will be a starting option in all fantasy leagues. Velus Jones Jr. should see a bigger role in the offense and could be a possible flex option.

Updating a previous report, Seattle Seahawks RB Zach Charbonnet (knee) is questionable to return to the Divisional Round game against the San Francisco 49ers after exiting with a knee injury.
Huddle Up: Any time a running back suffers a knee injury, there has to be some concern about the long-term impact. If Charbonnet's injury turns out to be serious, there is a good chance that he will miss some of the 2026 season.

Seattle Seahawks RB Zach Charbonnet (leg) was taken to the blue medical tent for evaluation after suffering an apparent leg injury during the Divisional Round game against the San Francisco 49ers.
Huddle Up: If Charbonnet is unable to return, it will likely mean a heavy workload for Kenneth Walker III for the rest of the game. Depending on the exact nature of the injury, it could put the start of Charbonnet's 2026 season in jeopardy.
Posted: 1/04/2026 3:07 am GMT
Seattle Seahawks RB Zach Charbonnet rushed 17 times for 74 yards and a touchdown and caught three passes for 23 yards in a 13-3 win over the San Francisco 49ers in Week 13.
Huddle Up: Charbonnet and Kenneth Walker III both handled 20 touches, but it was Charbonnet who found the end zone. He finishes the regular season with 12 touchdowns, and as long as Seattle views him as a the go-to back near the goal line, Charbonnet is going to at least be a flex option.
