Emanuel Wilson 2026 Fantasy Football Outlook: Seeking Early Sleeper Momentum in Seattle's Backfield
Seattle Seahawks running back Emanuel Wilson comes over from Green Bay at an opportune time to establish himself as a trustworthy rusher early in the year. Zach Charbonnet is recovering from a torn ACL suffered in the playoffs and should miss time in '26, which has first-round pick Jadarian Price and a third-year George Holani alongside Wilson on the depth chart. Price's draft capital and skills should get the inside track, but Wilson can't be written off. He grabbed headlines in Week 12 of last season when he turned 30 total touches into 125 yards and a pair of touchdowns when Josh Jacobs was out. Wilson has averaged 4.5 yards per carry in his career and posted a 4.1 YPC in the five games he saw double-digit carries in '25. Keep an eye on Price's involvement this preseason, as Wilson could find 12-15 touches per game in September. He's an easy late-round click near his half-PPR 186 ADP (RotoBaller rank: 168) for those stashing picks who need time to blossom.
