• Seahawks' Emanuel Wilson: Sits

  22H ago • By Jamey Eisenberg

  Wilson has been a great Fantasy running back for the past month, but Zach Charbonnet (knee) and Jadarian Price (chest) could potentially play in Week 8 against Chicago. If that happens, then it will be tough to trust Wilson in the majority of leagues, even with Seattle adding guard Quenton Nelson this week via trade from Indianapolis. Wilson has scored at least 13.2 PPR points in three of his past four games, including three outings with at least 20 carries over that span. Charbonnet could end up working in short-yardage situations and on passing downs when healthy, and Price is a wild card. The Bears also present a tough test since Chicago is No. 6 in fewest Fantasy points allowed to opposing running backs. Only four running backs this season have scored at least 10.5 PPR points against the Bears. Wilson should be considered a flex at best in most formats in Week 8.

• Seahawks' Emanuel Wilson: Rumbles for 100 yards, TD

  4D ago • By RotoWire

  Wilson rushed 24 times for 100 yards and a touchdown while catching his lone target for 15 yards in Sunday's 20-3 win over the Chiefs. Wilson recorded the second 100-yard rushing performance of his career, having accomplished that feat in Week 12 of last season with the Packers. He put the game away with a 21-yard rushing touchdown with 3:47 remaining in the fourth quarter. That was his third touchdown run in the past four games, during which Wilson has racked up 294 rushing yards on 79 carries (3.7 YPC), covering for lackluster efficiency with heavy rushing volume. He could face a significant influx of competition for carries as soon as Week 8 against the Bears, as Jadarian price (chest) will be eligible to return from IR while Zach Charbonnet (knee), who was inactive Sunday, could make his season debut after being activated from the reserve/PUP list Thursday.

• Seahawks' Emanuel Wilson: Bust Alert (Start/Sit)

  6D ago • By Jamey Eisenberg

  Even though Zach Charbonnet (knee) won't play in Week 7 against the Chiefs, I'm still not excited to start Wilson. He has done a nice job as the lead running back in Seattle, scoring at least 13.2 PPR points in two of his past three games. But this is a tough matchup against Kansas City, and Wilson could still lose touches to George Holani and Velus Jones Jr., which happened in Week 6 at Denver. The Chiefs are also No. 9 in fewest Fantasy points allowed to opposing running backs, so Wilson could struggle even if he handles a hefty workload. I would only use Wilson as a flex option at best in the majority of leagues.

• Seahawks' Emanuel Wilson: At least one more game as RB1

  6D ago • By RotoWire

  Wilson will be the lead back for Sunday's game against the Chiefs after Zach Charbonnet (knee) was ruled out ahead of that contest, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports. Charbonnet was a full participant in practice all week and was activated from the reserve/PUP list Thursday. However, he's not been given the green light to play, which means Wilson will lead the Seahawks' backfield yet again for Sunday's contest while George Holani and Velus Jones provide depth. Wilson has logged at least 20 carries in three of the Seahawks' last five games, and over that span he has turned 85 rushes into 300 yards and two touchdowns while catching five passes (on eight targets) for 50 yards and a score.

• Seahawks' Emanuel Wilson: Struggles with efficiency in loss

  14D ago • By RotoWire

  Wilson rushed 14 times for 52 yards and failed to bring in his only target in the Seahawks' 17-14 overtime loss to the Broncos on Thursday. Wilson had 12 of his 14 carries in regulation while once again serving as the Seahawks' lead back, and he averaged under 4.0 yards per carry for the fourth straight game. Wilson was held without a catch for the first time in three contests, however, capping his overall fantasy production in the low-soring defeat. Zach Charbonnet (knee) has been back at practice for the last two weeks and must be activated from the PUP list by next Thursday to avoid having to miss the rest of the season, so Wilson's days in a meaningful role appear to be drawing to a close.
