The full backfield depth chart
Every running back and fullback assigned to Seattle Seahawks, including reserve and practice-squad entries. Chart order and replacement opportunity answer different questions: a passing-down specialist can sit ahead of the back most likely to inherit the carries.
Source: nflverse depth-chart feed · Feed dated Thu, Sep 10, 8:01 AM EDT. Equal ranks are ties. Unlisted backs are not assigned an invented rank. FB ranks are separate from RB ranks.
Every back: role, upside and obstacles
The player assessments below explain the skills that could earn work and the assignments that might go to someone else. Role labels describe scouting assessments; they are not confirmed snap shares. “Three-down” means a skill set for rushing and passing situations, not a guarantee of every down.
Three-down outlook: Capable in saved assessmentPass protection: Not established
Saved scouting assessment — source review needed
No. 32 overall pick who sits atop Seattle's depth chart with Zach Charbonnet on PUP after a January ACL tear. Patient, instinctive runner with elite vision and return value; expected to work first and second downs with Holani handling third down and short yardage.
Scouting assessment saved Thu, Sep 10, 5:29 PM EDT. Underlying citations lack publication dates; treat team-role and injury statements as historical notes pending review.
Path to more work
He is the starter in the dated board above. For fantasy purposes, the question is how much of the rushing and passing work he keeps when the whole room is available.
Why the work could go elsewhere
A starter can still lose third downs, short-yardage work or change-of-pace touches to specialists. His role assessment describes the skill set, not a guarantee that every assignment stays with him.
Pass protection has not been established in the saved assessment. Missing information is not evidence that he cannot do it.
Draft investment
2026 · Round 1 · Pick 32
Drafted by SEA; not necessarily his current team.
Early-round investment is part of his prospect pedigree and may support a chance to develop. It does not guarantee the next workload, especially after a team change.
Draft record sourceWhat the recorded workload tells us
In 2026, his 1 recorded game include 10 carries and 2 receptions on 2 targets. He has recorded work both on the ground and in the passing game; those totals alone do not establish pass-protection ability or a three-down role.
Confirm the latest game-day designation. General active-roster status does not certify that he will dress or receive work.

Three-down outlook: Not establishedPass protection: Positive assessment
Saved scouting assessment — source review needed
Listed RB1 on Seattle's own unofficial chart and expected to own third down, short yardage and goal line while Price takes early downs. The most experienced healthy back in the room and a real threat to out-touch the rookie in scoring situations.
Scouting assessment saved Thu, Sep 10, 5:29 PM EDT. Underlying citations lack publication dates; treat team-role and injury statements as historical notes pending review.
Path to more work
The dated board selects him as the preferred replacement behind Jadarian Price. That is a projection of the replacement role, not a promise that he gets every touch.
Ahead on the feed’s RB chart: Jadarian Price. Their roles and availability shape how much work could open up.
Why the work could go elsewhere
Short-yardage work can carry touchdown value without a large snap share. A specialist could remain in that package while a teammate inherits the open-field carries and receiving work.
The saved assessment credits his pass protection, which can help a back earn passing-down trust. It does not guarantee a three-down assignment.

Saved scouting assessment — source review needed
Veteran depth back expected to share carries in the committee behind Price and Holani. Serviceable for a handful of touches, but Seattle would not hand him a lead role.
Scouting assessment saved Thu, Sep 10, 5:29 PM EDT. Underlying citations lack publication dates; treat team-role and injury statements as historical notes pending review.
Path to more work
His path begins with an opening behind Jadarian Price. The dated board currently prefers George Holani for the lead replacement role. Being next on a depth chart would not by itself guarantee the carries, third downs and goal-line work.
Ahead on the feed’s RB chart: Jadarian Price, George Holani. Their roles and availability shape how much work could open up.
Why the work could go elsewhere
A change-of-pace role can create useful touches in a limited package. It does not automatically transfer to the starter’s workload; another back may fit the early-down or short-yardage assignment better.
Pass protection has not been established in the saved assessment. Missing information is not evidence that he cannot do it.

Drafted by CHI; not necessarily his current team.
Day-two draft investment adds prospect context. His current role, availability and competition still decide whether he gets the next opportunity.
Draft record sourceWhat the recorded workload tells us
No recorded NFL regular-season production is available in the two seasons shown. That is an evidence gap, not a zero or a judgment of his ability.
His roster feed status is not on roster. He needs the relevant roster or availability change before this becomes an immediate pickup opportunity.

RB5 · Role under review
Zach Charbonnet
Age 25 · 4 years of NFL experience · active
Three-down outlook: Not establishedPass protection: Not established
Zach Charbonnet is a 2023 second-round pick with a physical rushing profile and credible receiving production. Seattle credits him with 1,761 rushing yards, 21 rushing touchdowns and 95 catches through three seasons; he set career highs in carries, yards and rushing touchdowns in 2025.
Research checked Fri, Sep 11, 11:53 AM EDT. Undated biographies support background facts, not a current workload promise.
Path to more work
If activated and needed, Charbonnet has already shown he can handle starter-sized workloads: he made six starts while Kenneth Walker III was injured in 2024 and finished 2025 with 184 carries. His 95 career receptions also support a broader role than a pure early-down reserve.
Ahead on the feed’s RB chart: Jadarian Price, George Holani, Emanuel Wilson, Velus Jones Jr.. Their roles and availability shape how much work could open up.
Why the work could go elsewhere
Seattle placed him on PUP on July 22, 2026 after offseason knee surgery. That report set no return timetable and does not establish his September health or roster status, so any workload projection remains conditional on evidence that he has recovered and is available.
Pass protection has not been established in the saved assessment. Missing information is not evidence that he cannot do it.

Saved scouting assessment — source review needed
Fullback/H-back kept for blocking and special teams. Not a ball carrier and not part of the backfield rotation.
Scouting assessment saved Thu, Sep 10, 5:29 PM EDT. Underlying citations lack publication dates; treat team-role and injury statements as historical notes pending review.
Path to more work
His path begins with an opening behind Jadarian Price. The dated board currently prefers George Holani for the lead replacement role. Being next on a depth chart would not by itself guarantee the carries, third downs and goal-line work.
Why the work could go elsewhere
A fullback’s place on the chart represents a different assignment from the running-back queue. Blocking or situational touches do not make him the next lead runner when an RB is absent.
The saved assessment credits his pass protection, which can help a back earn passing-down trust. It does not guarantee a three-down assignment.

A later-round selection describes his entry point. It does not rule out a lead role; demonstrated production and a trusted assignment matter more than draft position alone.

In 2025, his 4 recorded games include 0 carries and 0 receptions on 0 targets. Receiving volume is not established by these records. Do not read that as proof he cannot catch or protect the quarterback.

Three-down outlook: Not establishedPass protection: Not established
Brock Lampe is a 249-pound fullback whose college role at Northern Illinois centered on run blocking. He played 47 consecutive college games and contributed 18 receptions for 216 yards plus 20 carries for 66 yards, but missed his 2025 rookie season after landing on injured reserve.
Research checked Fri, Sep 11, 11:53 AM EDT. Undated biographies support background facts, not a current workload promise.
Path to more work
Seattle signed Lampe on August 6 while Robbie Ouzts was sidelined, explicitly describing the move as added fullback depth. His clearest path is therefore as a lead blocker and special-teams/depth player rather than a projected fantasy touch earner.
Why the work could go elsewhere
Seattle's transaction tracker records Lampe as waived/injured later in August, but the reviewed sources do not establish whether he subsequently returned. He has no NFL regular-season production, and the available evidence does not support a current offensive role or meaningful carry projection.
Pass protection has not been established in the saved assessment. Missing information is not evidence that he cannot do it.

Three-down outlook: Not establishedPass protection: Not established
Jacardia Wright is a second-year player listed by SEA at RB, from Missouri State. The official roster lists him at 6-0 and 218 pounds.
Research checked Fri, Sep 11, 12:01 PM EDT. Undated biographies support background facts, not a current workload promise.
Path to more work
A practice-squad place keeps him available for development and possible elevation. Any offensive work would depend on an active-roster opening and a team decision to use him in the backfield.
Why the work could go elsewhere
The official roster verifies his current reserve placement and basic background but does not establish backfield rank, pass protection, a three-down role or a projected touch share.
Pass protection has not been established in the saved assessment. Missing information is not evidence that he cannot do it.
