Zach Charbonnet might return to practice soon

Seattle Seahawks running back Zach Charbonnet (knee) is still on the Physically Unable to Perform (PUP) list and must miss at least one more game before he can play. However, he is now eligible to return to practice, providing a 21-day window during which he could do so without using up any of the 53-man roster spots. On Monday, September 28, head coach Mike Macdonald stated that a decision has not been made yet, but it is possible Charbonnet may return to practice this week.

He added, "We're still working through that process, I'm sure we'll have an answer by sometime (Tuesday) on whether or not he'll start practicing this week." Macdonald noted that it's not out of the question they could have an update. The run game suffered significantly in the recent game against Washington, accumulating only 44 yards on 18 carries, which translates to 2.4 yards per attempt.

Rookie Jadarian Price managed five runs for 15 yards, while Emanuel Wilson had nine carries for just 14 yards. With Charbonnet sidelined, he is expected to have a significant role in the offense once he returns. This report was originally published on USA TODAY.
