NFL Network's Mike Garafolo says the Seahawks will announce RB Zach Charbonnet as the starter for today's game against the Vikings. "Expect him to be a big part of the plan as well," he said, adding to the report that RB Kenneth Walker III is expected to go without limitations.
The tough part of this, of course: We won't really know until the game's going how Seahawks coaches will split work between their RBs.
An unlimited Walker has been the clear backfield leader when healthy to date. But Charbonnet has performed at least as well in recent shared games and dominated two weeks ago.
Expect some level of share, which makes each guy potentially helpful. But there's also downside risk to either guy -- especially with "hot hand" potential to the situation.
Unfortunately, we'll all be guessing at Walker's viability vs. others in low-RB2 territory of the Week 16 rankings.
