The Seahawks appeared to go into Week 1 with a game plan of splitting snaps between Jadarian Price and George Holani — likely in part to ease Price into things some. Price had 24 snaps to the 23 of Holani, who had 29 yards on eight carries.
Price’s workload figures to only increase the next few weeks. And when Zach Charbonnet returns at some point around midseason, the Seahawks can worry then about getting each enough work.
Fantasy Impact:
If you were hoping Price would get more carries, the story said HC Mike Macdonald noted the Seahawks ran just 48 plays. That was fewer than all but one game last year (47 at Tennessee) and almost 12 off their average last season of 59.7 per game. “If we can keep drives alive on offense, that will give us some more chances to run it,” Macdonald said in the story. “More runs will be better.” The story also pointed out that Price also didn’t get a carry in the preseason after he battled a hip injury. He got significant work in a joint practice with Tennessee before the Seahawks held him out of the final two preseason games.
