Price looked the part in Week 1 against New England with 10 carries for 52 yards and two catches for 6 yards on two targets. He just didn't play enough with 48 percent of the snaps, and George Holani had 46 percent of the snaps. Price will hopefully see his role increase in Week 2 against the Cardinals, who did a nice job against Omarion Hampton in Week 1, holding him to 8.3 PPR points. I'm expecting Seattle to lean on Price with Sam Darnold (hip) out, and I like Price as a No. 2 Fantasy running back in all leagues.

Seahawks' Jadarian Price: Efficient in Week 1 win
Rotowire
Price rushed 10 times for 52 yards and brought in both targets for six yards in the Seahawks' 13-10 win over the Patriots on Wednesday.
The rookie running back touched the ball on Seattle's first play from scrimmage and immediately made an impact, ripping off a decisive 13-yard run. While that would serve as Price's longest gain of the night, the first-round pick continued to run hard throughout the night while flashing a hard-charging style. Price's rushing opportunities were somewhat capped as George Holani also logged eight carries, but the former could be trusted with a bigger role in a Week 2 road matchup against the Cardinals on Sunday, Sept. 20.

Seahawks' Jadarian Price: RBs to Sit
Rotowire
We don't know how the Seahawks plan to use Price in his NFL debut. He could dominate touches or be in a timeshare with George Holani. Given the matchup, I would prefer to use Price as just a flex option against the Patriots. Last year, when defensive tackle Milton Williams was healthy in the regular season, New England allowed just two rushing touchdowns, and only Sean Tucker in Week 10 gained more than 49 rushing yards. Price could be a star, and it's hard to sit someone with his potential. But he could also lose valuable touches to Holani, and I would prefer Price as just a flex in Week 1.

Seahawks' Jadarian Price: Will not play Friday
Rotowire
Price will not play in Friday's preseason finale against the Chiefs, Brady Henderson of ESPN.com reports.
Price has practiced for over a week since recovering from a lower-body injury, so Friday's absence will not be injury-related. However, it is notable that the rookie will not make his first appearance in an NFL uniform until Week 1. It remains to be seen what Seattle's depth chart will look like heading into the regular season, but with Zach Charbonnet (knee) unavailable Price figures to fill a key role out of the gate in a Seattle backfield that also includes George Holani and Emanuel Wilson (hamstring).

Seahawks' Jadarian Price: Will not play Sunday
Rotowire
Price will not play in Sunday's preseason game against the Titans, Gregg Bell of The Tacoma News Tribune reports.
Not only will Price not play Sunday, he will also be held out of the Seahawks' preseason finale against the Chiefs this Friday. That means the first time that the rookie first-rounder can see in-game action will be Week 1 against the Patriots on Wednesday, Sept. 9. Price saw limited action in Friday's joint practice with the Titans, and head coach Mike Macdonald told reporters after that practice that Price is "ramping" up his workload over the final weeks of training camp and into the regular season. With Zach Charbonnet (knee) on the active/PUP list and Price sidelined, George Holani figures to serve as the Seahawks' lead back Sunday, with Velus Jones, Jacardia Wright and Anthony Hankerson also in the mix for snaps.

Seahawks' Jadarian Price: Primed to participate Monday
Rotowire
Price (lower body) was present at the start of Monday's practice, Brady Henderson of ESPN.com reports.
Since Price initially missed practice Aug. 8 due to lower-body soreness, the extent of his activity has been work in walkthroughs, and he ended up sitting out Saturday's preseason game versus the Cowboys. It's unclear how much the rookie first-round pick will be able to handle Monday, but his presence generally is a good sign that he's progressing well in his recovery. Fellow RB Zach Charbonnet remains on the active/PUP list due to the ACL tear that he suffered in January and is likely to move to the reserve version of that list to kick off the regular season, and Emanuel Wilson sat out Saturday's contest due to a hamstring issue. As a result, George Holani has been handling most of the first-team backfield reps of late, with Velus Jones, Jacardia Wright and newcomer Anthony Hankerson the other healthy options at the position.

Seahawks' Jadarian Price: Won't play Saturday
Rotowire
Price (lower body) won't suit up for Saturday's preseason game against the Cowboys, Curtis Crabtree of Fox 13 Seattle reports.
Price has been tending to lower-body soreness since last Friday and hasn't practiced in the interim, but he was spotted running on a side field Tuesday and then took part in Wednesday's walkthrough, per Bob Condotta of The Seattle Times. Coach Mike Macdonald said Friday that Price is still "on the mend," so it remains to be seen when he'll mix back into at least individual drills. It also should be noted that Price was listed as the Seahawks' No. 2 RB on the team's first unofficial depth chart of training camp behind George Holani and ahead of Emanuel Wilson, so the rookie first-round pick may have some work to do to handle a larger share of the backfield work to begin the regular season.

Seahawks' Jadarian Price: Takes part in Wednesday's walkthrough
Rotowire
Price (lower body) participated in Wednesday's walkthrough, Bob Condotta of The Seattle Times reports.
Price sat out last Friday's practice due to lower-body soreness but progressed to running on a side field Tuesday before Wednesday's development. The Seahawks posted their first unofficial depth chart of training camp this week, and Price was listed as the No. 2 RB behind George Holani and ahead of Emanuel Wilson. Price's status as a 2026 first-round pick indicates he'll be a part of game plans from the start of his NFL career, but he also seems likely to be in some sort of timeshare with Holani and even Wilson. First, though, Price will focus on getting healthy.

Seahawks' Jadarian Price: Dealing with lower-body soreness
Rotowire
Price didn't practice Friday due to "lower-body soreness," Gregg Bell of The Tacoma News Tribune reports.
In the early stages of training camp, Price has been handling first-team reps along with fellow RB George Holani. The breakdown of reps in the Seahawks backfield to start the season remains up in the air with Zach Charbonnet in recovery mode from his January ACL tear and Kenneth Walker now in Kansas City. The team invested a first-round pick in Price back in April, presumably with the expectation that he'd be the lead runner while Charbonnet is sidelined, but Holani and even free-agent pickup Emanuel Wilson also may be a part of game plans for Week 1 and beyond.
Price has been mixing in with Seattle's starters at OTAs, including for a full drive during Wednesday's practice, according to Gregg Bell of The News Tribune.
The report suggests George Holani has mostly been first through the backfield rotation, with Price also getting some first-team reps, while Emanuel Wilson is largely working with backups. Bell also suggests Zach Charbonnet (knee) could be part of the team's plan as early as September or October, even though Charbonnet underwent ACL surgery in late February. Price, the 32nd overall pick this spring, remains a solid favorite to lead Seattle in carries come Week 1. However, the rookie could end up in a three-man rotation with Holani handling pass-catching work and Wilson taking some of the inside carries and/or pass-blocking snaps.

Seahawks' Jadarian Price: Selected by Seattle
Rotowire
The Seahawks selected Price in the first round of the 2026 NFL Draft, 32nd overall.
If Jeremiyah Love was Notre Dame's Darren McFadden then Price was their Felix Jones, providing consistent big plays off the bench and as a kick returner. Price is not quite as athletic at 5-foot-11, 203 pounds as Jones was out of Arkansas, but the general theme of big plays off the bench is the deal with Price. The unclear early-season availability of Zach Charbonnet (ACL) gives room for Price to make an immediate impact, and upon Charbonnet's eventual return a long-term workload split can be expected between him and Price not unlike the split between Charbonnet and Kenneth Walker previously. Price also might displace Rashid Shaheed from the kick return unit after returning three of his 22 collegiate kick returns for touchdowns (36.1 yards per return).
