Zach Charbonnet was a full participant in practice on Wednesday, according to Corbin K. Smith of EmeraldCitySpectrum.com via RotoWire. Underdog NFL also reported that Charbonnet fully practiced Wednesday.

What happened

Charbonnet has been rehabbing a torn ACL suffered during last year’s playoff run, according to Yahoo Sports. He appears to be a lock to return against the Chiefs after his full practice session, per Yahoo Sports.

Context

Charbonnet is listed as RB4 on the Seahawks’ depth chart from Sleeper. His Sleeper projection for Week 7 is 5.6 PPR points.

Seattle’s current rushing attack has struggled, according to Athlon Sports via Yahoo Sports. The Seahawks lost rookie running back Jadarian Price in Week 3, per Yahoo Sports.

Timeline

On October 15, Fantasy Football Desk reported that Zach Charbonnet was ruled out for Week 6 against the Denver Broncos. At that time, ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler reported Charbonnet had a legitimate chance to play in Week 7 against Kansas City.

On October 19, Fantasy Football Desk reported that head coach Mike Macdonald said Charbonnet had a “good chance” to play Sunday night against the Chiefs, according to Gregg Bell of The Tacoma News Tribune via RotoWire.

Depth chart

Emanuel Wilson is listed as RB1 on the Seahawks’ depth chart. He has 56.3 PPR points, 87 carries, 303 rushing yards, and two rushing touchdowns through six games this season.

George Holani is RB2. He has 32.3 PPR points, 31 carries, 97 rushing yards, and one rushing touchdown through six games.

Brady Russell is RB3. He has 7.0 PPR points and three receptions for 40 yards.

The Seahawks host the Kansas City Chiefs on Sunday, October 25.

Zach Charbonnet (knee) fully practices Wednesday.

🏈 Fantasy impact

Charbonnet’s full practice is a promising sign for his Week 7 availability, and he is currently RB4 on the depth chart. The Seahawks’ running game has struggled, which could open the door for him to earn touches quickly, but the backfield remains crowded with Emanuel Wilson and George Holani ahead of him. Charbonnet’s projection is only 5.6 PPR points, suggesting a limited role in his potential return. He is a speculative add in deeper leagues, but managers should temper expectations until we see his usage. If you have roster space, stash him, but don’t start him in Week 7 unless you’re desperate.
