Emanuel Wilson rushed 21 times for 92 yards in the Seahawks’ Week 2 win over the Cardinals.
Wilson failed to catch his lone target. The Seahawks’ burly back began rotating in on the team’s fourth drive and traded touches with starting RB Jadarian Price thereafter. On the fifth drive, Price got the first touch on 1st-and-goal, but Wilson subbed in and took three unsuccessful carries in a row, leading to a turnover on downs. That did not deter the Seahawks from using him, though. Wilson remained heavily involved for the rest of the game and generally served as the team’s lead rusher once Price exited with a chest injury in the fourth quarter. Wilson did cede high-value touches, even in scoring position, to RB George Holani, though Wilson handily out-touched him 21-5. If Price cannot play in Week 3 against the Commanders, Wilson would warrant RB2/FLEX consideration.
