Zach Charbonnet News
Sunday, August 23, 12:28 PM
Seattle Seahawks running back Zach Charbonnet (knee) is currently on the Physically Unable to Perform list as he works his way back from a torn ACL. The 25-year-old underwent knee surgery in late February, making it likely that he will not be ready for the start of the season. Across 16 games in 2025, Charbonnet recorded 874 scrimmage yards and 12 touchdowns on 204 touches while splitting carries with former Seahawks back Kenneth Walker III. Walker III departed Seattle for the Kansas City Chiefs in free agency, which could open up an expanded role for Charbonnet once he makes it back to the field. However, the Seahawks used the 32nd pick in the 2026 NFL Draft on running back Jadarian Price, who has turned heads in training camp and appears to be establishing himself as the team's clear RB1 heading into the year. Given Charbonnet's uncertain return timeline and the backfield competition in Seattle, his fantasy value is questionable.

Cam Skattebo News
Tuesday, August 25, 9:41 AM
New York Giants running back Cam Skattebo has another strong sign pointing toward him opening the season at the front of the backfield. Jordan Raanan reports that Skattebo is listed alone as the RB1 on New York's unofficial depth chart for the preseason finale against the Jets. Tyrone Tracy Jr., Najee Harris and Devin Singletary are all grouped together with "OR" designations on the next line. Skattebo has also been the first back up most days in practice, so the depth chart lines up with how the Giants have been using him this summer. He rushed for 410 yards and five touchdowns on 101 carries as a rookie, adding 24 catches for 207 yards and two more scores before his season ended after eight games. The Giants still have plenty to sort out behind him, and an unofficial depth chart doesn't guarantee a featured workload. For now, though, Skattebo is the one sitting in the RB1 spot.
