Zach Charbonnet Returns to Practice in Limited Fashion on Thursday

Thursday, October 1, 5:16 PM

Seattle Seahawks running back Zach Charbonnet (knee) returned to practice in a limited capacity on Thursday, per Corbin K. Smith of Emerald City Spectrum. Charbonnet is currently on the Physically Unable to Perform list as he recovers from a torn ACL and is ineligible to play in Week 4 against the Los Angeles Chargers. However, the 25-year-old had his practice window opened on Thursday and could have a chance to return in Week 5 when the Seahawks host the San Francisco 49ers. Charbonnet split backfield work with former Seattle running back Kenneth Walker last season, recording 874 scrimmage yards and 12 touchdowns on 204 touches across 16 games. With Walker now in Kansas City and Seahawks rookie running back Jadarian Price (chest) struggling early on, Charbonnet could take over as the clear lead back in Seattle once healthy.

Kyle Monangai Not on the Week 4 Injury Report

Wednesday, September 30, 4:58 PM

Chicago Bears running back Kyle Monangai is not on the team's Week 4 injury report and was able to practice in full on Wednesday. Monangai has nursed a knee injury in the early weeks of the season, but it has not kept him from playing in any of the first three games of 2026. The 24-year-old former seventh-round pick in 2025 from Rutgers has been impressive so far in his sophomore season while splitting the backfield with D'Andre Swift. He has 30 rushing attempts for 178 yards (5.9 yards per carry) and one rushing touchdown, while catching all four of his targets for 35 yards through the air. At the very least, the physical, big-play back should continue to be a strong RB3/flex option for fantasy managers, even with quarterback Caleb Williams (hamstring) likely to miss another game this weekend when the New York Jets visit on Sunday. Monangai has had exactly 10 rushing attempts in all three games so far this year, although he had just 31 rushing yards in Monday night's upset win over the Philadelphia Eagles.
