Who Should I Start? Emanuel Wilson or Nicholas Singleton

Seattle Seahawks running back Emanuel Wilson is in line for a big role in Week 4 against the Los Angeles Chargers. The Seahawks will be without rookie running back Jadarian Price (chest), who picked up two DNPs to end the practice week. Wilson has been the preferred running back for carry volume behind Price throughout this season. Wilson has not been a particularly efficient runner this season, but he did manage 92 yards on 21 carries in Week 2 mop-up duty. Seattle figures to play from ahead for most of their matchup with the Chargers this weekend, which should provide Wilson with plenty of chances for touches. Wilson is unlikely to see much receiving volume this week, but he is the Seahawks' goal line back. As such, he should have a chance to fall into the end zone this weekend and accumulate decent yardage. He is a risky play because of his lack of passing game usage, but he will be the starting running back on a good offense this week. Wilson can be best viewed as a flex play in Week 4.
