Team adds first-round RB Wilson will face increased competition for touches after the Seahawks drafted Jadarian Price 32nd overall Thursday, Brady Henderson of ESPN.com reports.

Impact All three of Wilson, Price and George Holani could play sizable roles early in the season while Zach Charbonnet works his way back from a torn ACL. The Seahawks signed Wilson and drafted Price after losing running back Kenneth Walker in free agency. Price is untested in a workhorse role, having backed up Jeremiyah Love at Notre Dame, so Seattle's likely to spread out the backfield workload between multiple options despite investing significant draft capital into Price.

Joining Seattle's backfield The Seahawks are slated to sign Wilson to a one-year deal worth up to 2.1 million, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

Impact While working as Josh Jacobs' top backup with Green Bay in 2025, Wilson recorded 496 yards and three TDs on 125 carries, along with 99 receiving yards on 15 catches in 17 regular-season games. With Kenneth Walker departing via free agency and Zach Charbonnet having suffered a torn ACL in January, Wilson could potentially earn a key early-season role in a Seattle backfield that also includes Kenny McIntosh and George Holani, though it's possible that the team adds further RB depth in the coming weeks/months.

Packers' surprising Emanuel Wilson decision creates a running back problem The Green Bay Packers surprisingly opted not to use the RFA tender, which now raises big questions at running back.

FEBRUARY 28 • LOMBARDIAVE.COM

Won't be tendered The Packers aren't planning on tendering Wilson, so he will become a free agent, Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com reports.

Impact Wilson served as Josh Jacobs' backup at running back last season and tallied 496 yards and three touchdowns on 125 carries, adding 99 receiving yards on 15 catches over 17 regular-season games. He also worked part-time as a kick returner and logged 233 yards on nine kickoff returns. Wilson just finished his third campaign with Green Bay and entered the offseason as a restricted free agent, but the Packers' likely decision not to tender him means he'll be free to sign with any team.

Serves as Jacobs' backup in 2025 Wilson turned 125 carries into 496 yards and three touchdowns while adding 15 catches (on 17 targets) for 99 yards over 17 regular-season games (two starts) for the Packers in 2025...

Impact For a second consecutive season, Wilson served as the Packers' No. 2 option behind Josh Jacobs. The former managed to draw two starts, the first of which took place in Week 12 against the Vikings, when he broke out for 107 yards and two touchdowns on 28 carries while hauling in both of his targets for 18 yards. Wilson saw double-digit carries in four regular-season games but only one carry (for three yards) during Green Bay's 31-27 NFC wild-card loss to Chicago on Saturday while playing 13 of 71 offensive snaps (18.3 percent). The Packers have the option to tender Wilson during the offseason, which would make the soon-to-be 26-year-old running back a restricted free agent.

2025 NFL Team of the Week Recap: Puka Nacua, Jonathan Taylor Lead the Way

Tough sledding against Vikings Wilson carried the ball 18 times for 44 yards and caught his only target for four yards in Sunday's 16-3 loss to Minnesota.

Impact The Packers rested key players ahead of the playoffs, including Josh Jacobs (knee/ankle), but Wilson wound up being outgained by Chris Brooks out of the backfield as the team deployed a ground-heavy attack. Wilson has seen no more than four carries in four of the last five games, so he isn't likely to have a big role in the wild-card round. The third-year RB wraps up the regular season with 496 rushing yards and three touchdowns on 125 carries.

JANUARY 4 • SPORTINGNEWS.COM

Four touches in Week 17 Wilson rushed three times for 16 yards and caught his only target for eight yards in Saturday's 41-24 loss to the Ravens.

Impact Wilson, along with the rest of the Packers' running backs, was limited to minimal production in Week 17. Starter Josh Jacobs churned out three yards on four carries and caught one pass for no gain in the game while battling through a calf issue. With Green Bay locked in as the No. 7 seed in the NFC playoffs, it's possible that Jacobs is rested and Wilson earns the nod as the team's lead back in Week 18 versus the Vikings.

DECEMBER 28, 2025 • SPORTINGNEWS.COM

Highly efficient in OT loss Wilson rushed 14 times for 82 yards and recovered a fumble in the Packers' 22-16 overtime loss to the Bears on Saturday night.

Impact Wilson was effective throughout the night, and after Josh Jacobs lost a fumble at the Bears' three-yard line in the third quarter, the former handled the rest of Green Bay's non-quarterback rushing opportunities. Wilson's rushing yardage total was his second highest of the season, and he may have earned himself a bigger workload in next Saturday night's home showdown against the Ravens even if Jacobs is healthy enough to play through his knee and ankle injuries.
