Seattle Seahawks RB RolesLast Update: 6/19/2025
RB Overview
Role Security: High
6/19/25: Kenneth Walker remains the lead back but has yet to top 230 carries in a season. He set a career high with 53 targets in 2024 and may stay involved as a receiver. Zach Charbonnet will operate as the change-of-pace option and could handle full-time duties if Walker misses time. Damien Martinez and Kenny McIntosh will battle for backup roles.
WR Overview
6/19/25: Jaxon Smith-Njigba is the top wideout after averaging 7.5 targets per game from Week 12 on. With DK Metcalf and Tyler Lockett gone, Smith-Njigba could take on even more volume. Cooper Kupp will operate as the No. 2 and offer weekly consistency. Marquez Valdes-Scantling and rookie Tory Horton will compete for rotational spots.
TE Overview
6/19/25: Noah Fant enters camp as the returning starter, but rookie Elijah Arroyo was drafted to push for top pass-catching tight end duties. Arroyo has a strong chance to win the job.
