Zach Charbonnet's Week 1 Return Could Be a Close Call

Tuesday, July 28, 11:46 AM

Seattle Seahawks running back Zach Charbonnet (knee) could be in a close race to return for Week 1 as he recovers from a torn ACL, according to Albert Breer of Sports Illustrated. Breer reports that Seattle intends to handle Charbonnet cautiously to ensure he is available when the team needs him most. The 25-year-old suffered the injury during the Seahawks' divisional-round victory over San Francisco, underwent surgery on Feb. 20, and opened training camp on the active/PUP list. Charbonnet rushed 184 times for 730 yards and a team-high 12 touchdowns across 16 regular-season games in 2025 while adding 20 receptions for 144 yards. His uncertain status makes first-round rookie Jadarian Price a pivotal figure in Seattle's early backfield plans. The Seahawks selected Price 32nd overall after he recorded 674 rushing yards and 11 touchdowns on 113 carries while complementing Jeremiyah Love at Notre Dame. Charbonnet can be activated from active/PUP at any point during camp, but his August progress will determine whether he is available for the season opener.

Cam Skattebo the Giants' Clear Lead Back

Monday, August 3, 5:27 AM

New York Giants running back Cam Skattebo has been the first player up in almost every running back drill through the early stages of training camp, and NFL Insider Connor Hughes calls him the team's clear lead back. After starting his rookie season in a timeshare, Skattebo's run as the primary ball carrier lasted only a handful of games before a lower leg injury ended his 2025 campaign, but he has handled the majority of work through the opening practices of summer and should see heavy volume in his second season. Skattebo is RotoBaller's RB20 but could see his ADP rise throughout draft season as he distances himself from the gruesome season-ending injury, and he is a legitimate threat to finish as an RB1 in 2026.
