• Seahawks' Emanuel Wilson: Sits

  Rotowire Oct 28, 2026

  Wilson has been a great Fantasy running back for the past month, but Zach Charbonnet (knee) and Jadarian Price (chest) could potentially play in Week 8 against Chicago. If that happens, then it will be tough to trust Wilson in the majority of leagues, even with Seattle adding guard Quenton Nelson this week via trade from Indianapolis. Wilson has scored at least 13.2 PPR points in three of his past four games, including three outings with at least 20 carries over that span. Charbonnet could end up working in short-yardage situations and on passing downs when healthy, and Price is a wild card. The Bears also present a tough test since Chicago is No. 6 in fewest Fantasy points allowed to opposing running backs. Only four running backs this season have scored at least 10.5 PPR points against the Bears. Wilson should be considered a flex at best in most formats in Week 8.

• Seahawks' Emanuel Wilson: Rumbles for 100 yards, TD

  Rotowire Oct 25, 2026

  Wilson rushed 24 times for 100 yards and a touchdown while catching his lone target for 15 yards in Sunday's 20-3 win over the Chiefs. Wilson recorded the second 100-yard rushing performance of his career, having accomplished that feat in Week 12 of last season with the Packers. He put the game away with a 21-yard rushing touchdown with 3:47 remaining in the fourth quarter. That was his third touchdown run in the past four games, during which Wilson has racked up 294 rushing yards on 79 carries (3.7 YPC), covering for lackluster efficiency with heavy rushing volume. He could face a significant influx of competition for carries as soon as Week 8 against the Bears, as Jadarian price (chest) will be eligible to return from IR while Zach Charbonnet (knee), who was inactive Sunday, could make his season debut after being activated from the reserve/PUP list Thursday.

• Seahawks' Emanuel Wilson: Bust Alert (Start/Sit)

  Rotowire Oct 24, 2026

  Even though Zach Charbonnet (knee) won't play in Week 7 against the Chiefs, I'm still not excited to start Wilson. He has done a nice job as the lead running back in Seattle, scoring at least 13.2 PPR points in two of his past three games. But this is a tough matchup against Kansas City, and Wilson could still lose touches to George Holani and Velus Jones Jr., which happened in Week 6 at Denver. The Chiefs are also No. 9 in fewest Fantasy points allowed to opposing running backs, so Wilson could struggle even if he handles a hefty workload. I would only use Wilson as a flex option at best in the majority of leagues.

• Seahawks' Emanuel Wilson: At least one more game as RB1

  Rotowire Oct 23, 2026

  Wilson will be the lead back for Sunday's game against the Chiefs after Zach Charbonnet (knee) was ruled out ahead of that contest, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports. Charbonnet was a full participant in practice all week and was activated from the reserve/PUP list Thursday. However, he's not been given the green light to play, which means Wilson will lead the Seahawks' backfield yet again for Sunday's contest while George Holani and Velus Jones provide depth. Wilson has logged at least 20 carries in three of the Seahawks' last five games, and over that span he has turned 85 rushes into 300 yards and two touchdowns while catching five passes (on eight targets) for 50 yards and a score.

• Seahawks' Emanuel Wilson: Struggles with efficiency in loss

  Rotowire Oct 16, 2026

  Wilson rushed 14 times for 52 yards and failed to bring in his only target in the Seahawks' 17-14 overtime loss to the Broncos on Thursday. Wilson had 12 of his 14 carries in regulation while once again serving as the Seahawks' lead back, and he averaged under 4.0 yards per carry for the fourth straight game. Wilson was held without a catch for the first time in three contests, however, capping his overall fantasy production in the low-soring defeat. Zach Charbonnet (knee) has been back at practice for the last two weeks and must be activated from the PUP list by next Thursday to avoid having to miss the rest of the season, so Wilson's days in a meaningful role appear to be drawing to a close.

• Seahawks' Emanuel Wilson: Posts TD, fumble on 22 touches

  Rotowire Oct 11, 2026

  Wilson rushed 20 times for 61 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 32-29 loss to the 49ers. He also caught both of his targets for 11 yards and lost a fumble. Wilson followed up his two-touchdown performance in Week 4 against the Chargers with a two-yard rushing score in the first quarter against the 49ers, but he proceeded to lose a fumble in the second quarter. Fellow running back George Holani also lost a fumble and Sam Darnold threw two interceptions in a sloppy performance from Seattle's offense. Zach Charbonnet (knee) isn't expected to be activated from the reserve/PUP list ahead of Thursday's game against the Broncos, while Jadarian Price (chest) remains on IR, so Wilson is poised to remain Seattle's lead back in Week 6.

• Seahawks' Emanuel Wilson: RBs to Start

  Rotowire Oct 7, 2026

  Joe Mixon ended up not signing in Seattle, and Zach Charbonnet (knee) isn't going to play in Week 5. It will be Wilson's backfield again, and he was awesome in Week 4 against the Chargers with 21 carries for 81 yards and a touchdown and three catches for 39 yards and a touchdown on four targets for 27 PPR points. He now has 10 games in his career with double digits in carries, and he has scored at least 11.7 PPR points in seven of those outings. The 49ers are No. 8 in most Fantasy points allowed to opposing running backs, and a running back has scored at least 12.3 PPR points in every game this season.

• Seahawks' Emanuel Wilson: Week 5 Waiver Priority List

  Rotowire Oct 6, 2026

  There's a lot going on with Seattle's backfield heading into Week 5 against San Francisco. Wilson just had a career game in Week 4 against the Chargers with 21 carries for 81 yards and a touchdown and three catches for 39 yards and a touchdown on four targets for 27 PPR points. Zach Charbonnet (knee) is close to a return, although it won't happen against the 49ers. And first-round rookie Jadarian Price (chest) was placed on injured reserve prior to Week 4. Long-term, this could be messy, especially once Charbonnet and Price are healthy. For Week 5, Wilson should be considered a must-start Fantasy option in all leagues, and he's worth adding for at least 20 percent of your remaining FAAB. Wilson could eventually tumble down the depth chart when everyone is healthy, but he could also be a league-winner if he remains in the lead role for the Seahawks. Let's hope for another big game in Week 5.

• Seahawks' Emanuel Wilson: Turns in 120 total yards

  Rotowire Oct 4, 2026

  Wilson racked up 21 carries for 81 yards and one touchdown and added three catches (on four targets) for 39 yards and another TD during Sunday's 30-23 win versus the Chargers. In the wake of Jadarian Price's placement on injured reserve due to a chest issue, Wilson got the first chance to pace the Seahawks backfield, and he parlayed the second-highest touch count of his career into his second ever outing with 100-plus yards from scrimmage and his second two-TD performance. Meanwhile, fellow RB George Holani himself received eight touches, which he turned into 20 total yards. Until Zach Charbonnet (knee, reserve/PUP list) is able to return to action, Wilson figures to be Seattle's lead runner.

• Seahawks' Emanuel Wilson: Sleeper RBs

  Rotowire Oct 2, 2026

  Jadarian Price (chest) is out for Week 4 against the Chargers, which means Wilson should start for Seattle. He's worth using as a flex option in all leagues. Price injured his chest in Week 2 at Arizona, and Wilson finished the game with 21 carries for 92 yards and no catches on one target. He's not going to have a big role in the passing game, and he should share touches with George Holani. But Wilson should get the majority of work, and the Chargers have allowed all three starting running backs they've faced (Jeremiyah Love, Ashton Jeanty and James Cook) to score at least 10.3 PPR points. Wilson has nine games in his career with double digits in carries, and he has scored at least 11.7 PPR points in six of those outings.

• Seahawks' Emanuel Wilson: In line for more work against Chargers

  Rotowire Oct 2, 2026

  With Jadarian Price (chest) out for Sunday's game against the Chargers, Wilson is expected to take on an expanded role out of the backfield, Gregg Bell of The Tacoma News Tribune reports. Wilson actually leads the Seahawks in carries (32) this season, but he's been splitting work with Price (28 carries) and George Holani (15) in what has been a three-man weave out of the backfield. Wilson is averaging just 3.4 yards per carry but could flirt with 20 rushing attempts Sunday, putting him very much in the fantasy RB2/3 mix.

• Seahawks' Emanuel Wilson: Struggles as rusher vs. Washington

  Rotowire Sep 29, 2026

  Wilson turned nine carries into 14 yards during the Seahawks' 33-31 loss to the Commanders on Sunday. Wilson saw his role expand during the Seahawks' Week 2 win over the Cardinals after Jadarian Price left the game due to a chest injury, with the former finishing with 21 carries for 92 yards. Wilson returned to a rotational role with George Holani for Week 3 after Price was cleared to play, though Wilson actually led the backfield trio with nine carries, though six of those touches went for three yards or less. Wilson has 32 carries for 109 yards (3.4 YPC) through the first three games of the regular season, though it looks like the Seahawks may be shifting to a committee approach to the backfield instead of Price being the lead back. The Seahawks head back home for a Week 4 tilt against the Chargers this Sunday.

• Seahawks' Emanuel Wilson: Remaining as RB2 for Week 3

  Rotowire Sep 25, 2026

  Wilson will be the Seahawks' RB2 for Sunday's game against the Commanders after Jadarian Price (chest) was cleared to play, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports. Wilson ended up logging 21 carries for 92 yards during the Seahawks' Week 2 win over the Cardinals, with most of those touches coming after Price left the game in the fourth quarter due to a chest injury. Price has been cleared to play against Washington, so Wilson and George Holani will provide backfield depth for Sunday's road tilt.

• Seahawks' Emanuel Wilson: Week 3 Waiver Priority List

  Rotowire Sep 22, 2026

  It appears like Jadarian Price (shoulder) will be OK for Week 3 at Washington, but Wilson is worth adding in all leagues for at least 5 percent of your remaining FAAB just in case Price is out. Wilson had 21 carries for 92 yards and no catches on one target in Week 2 at Arizona, and he would be at least a flex if he starts in place of Price against the Commanders.

• Seahawks' Emanuel Wilson: Notches 21 carries in victory

  Rotowire Sep 20, 2026

  Wilson rushed 21 times for 92 yards and failed to catch his only target in Sunday's 31-7 win over Arizona. Wilson stepped into a larger workload Week 2, partially due to rookie running back Jadarian Price exiting the game with a chest injury in the fourth quarter. The 92 rushing yards were Wilson's highest total since he notched 107 yards and two scores on 28 totes in Week 12 of the 2025 campaign while with the Packers. Wilson could handle the lion's share of touches in the backfield against the Commanders in Week 3 if Price is forced to miss the contest.

• Seahawks' Emanuel Wilson: Two touches in Seahawks debut

  Rotowire Sep 10, 2026

  Wilson rushed twice for three yards and wasn't targeted in Wednesday's 13-10 win over the Patriots. Wilson worked as a distant third option in Seattle's backfield behind Jadarian Price (58 yards on 12 touches) and George Holani (29 yards on eight touches). As long as Price and Holani are healthy, Wilson is unlikely to get meaningful playing time, and Seattle's backfield could get even more crowded once Zach Charbonnet (knee) comes off the PUP list.

• Seahawks' Emanuel Wilson: Full practice Sunday

  Rotowire Sep 6, 2026

  Wilson (hamstring) practiced fully Sunday, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports. Wilson has been a distant third on the RB depth chart behind first-round rookie Jadarian Price and George Holani since the offseason program, and a hamstring injury that was first reported after preseason Week 1 didn't allow Wilson to make any headway for backfield reps to begin the campaign. Now that his health isn't a question, it remains to be seen if Wilson will be a part of the running game during Wednesday's Week 1 matchup with the Patriots.

• Seahawks' Emanuel Wilson: Sidelined by short-term hamstring injury

  Rotowire Aug 16, 2026

  Wilson (hamstring) sat out Saturday's preseason opener against the Cowboys, Gregg Bell of the Tacoma News Tribune reports. Wilson is managing what is believed to be a short-term hamstring injury. Both Wilson and Jadarian Price (lower body) are expected to be available for the start of the regular season, which may not be the case for Zach Charbonnet (knee). Even if Charbonnet isn't ready to begin the season, Wilson appears likely to cede the majority of backfield opportunities to George Holani and Price. Wilson's next chance to see preseason action will be Sunday, Aug. 23 at Tennessee.

• Seahawks' Emanuel Wilson: Mostly working with third-stringers

  Rotowire Jun 10, 2026

  Wilson has been getting most of his reps with the third-string offense at OTAs, according to Gregg Bell of The News Tribune. Wilson did a solid job filling in for an injured Josh Jacobs in Green Bay last season, so it's no surprise there was fantasy interest after Wilson signed with the RB-needy Seahawks in March on a reported one-year, $2.1 million contract. His fantasy stock has since taken a hit, in large part because the Seahawks drafted RB Jadarian Price at No. 32 overall in April. It also doesn't help that Wilson's contract is closer to $1.6 million in base value, not $2.1 million, and with only $300,000 guaranteed at signing. He may still be part of the plan to help replace Kenneth Walker (Chiefs) and Zach Charbonnet (torn ACL), but early reports out of Seattle have George Holani getting most of the first-team reps while Price mixes in some. Wilson seems to be exclusively working with the backups, at least during the media-access portions of practice.

• Seahawks' Emanuel Wilson: First-round RB added by Seattle

  Rotowire Apr 24, 2026

  Wilson will face increased competition for touches after the Seahawks drafted Jadarian Price 32nd overall Thursday, Brady Henderson of ESPN.com reports. All three of Wilson, Price and George Holani could play sizable roles early in the season while Zach Charbonnet works his way back from a torn ACL. The Seahawks signed Wilson and drafted Price after losing running back Kenneth Walker in free agency. Price is untested in a workhorse role, having backed up Jeremiyah Love at Notre Dame, so Seattle's likely to spread out the backfield workload between multiple options despite investing significant draft capital into Price.
