Price Poised for 100+ Yard Debut vs. Patriots
8 Sep
Summary
- Rookie Jadarian Price is predicted to rush for over 100 yards in his debut.
- Zach Charbonnet is currently sidelined with an injury.
- The Patriots boast a top-tier run defense, ranking sixth in 2025.
The Seattle Seahawks' running back depth will be tested in 2026 with the departure of Kenneth Walker II and an injury to Zach Charbonnet. To address this, the team drafted Notre Dame's Jadarian Price in the first round, who is now expected to play a significant role immediately.
One bold prediction suggests that Price will rush for over 100 yards in his debut game against the New England Patriots. This projection highlights the expectation for Price to quickly become the team's lead back, mirroring the importance Walker held.
If this prediction materializes, it would be a substantial boost for the Seahawks' offense, aiming to replicate last season's efficiency where the run and pass games complemented each other. Price's performance will be key, especially considering the Patriots' defense was the sixth-best against the run in 2025.
The Seahawks and Patriots are scheduled to open their 2026 season on Wednesday night at Lumen Field. The team is optimistic about Price's potential, having seen enough in practice despite his preseason absence.
