Zach Charbonnet to Make 2026 Debut; Jadarian Price Cleared for Monday Night

Running backs Zach Charbonnet and Jadarian Price have no game designations for the Seattle Seahawks' Monday night matchup against the Chicago Bears.

Seattle Seahawks running backs Zach Charbonnet and Jadarian Price have received no game designations for Monday night’s contest against the Chicago Bears at Lumen Field. Coach Mike Macdonald confirmed Charbonnet will make his 2026 season debut after recovering from a torn left ACL suffered during the divisional round on Jan. 17. Charbonnet, who underwent surgery on Feb. 12, was a full participant in Thursday and Saturday practices this week.

Jadarian Price is eligible to return from injured reserve after missing four games with a chest injury. While he was a full participant in practice for the last two days, Macdonald noted that Seattle has not yet officially activated the rookie first-round pick. To play on Monday, the team must clear a spot on the 53-man roster. Emanuel Wilson and George Holani have handled backfield duties during the pair's absence.

Seattle ruled out three players for the matchup: left tackle Charles Cross (ankle), wide receiver Rashid Shaheed (knee), and backup running back Velus Jones Jr. (hamstring). Cross reportedly suffered a high ankle sprain during last Sunday's game against the Kansas City Chiefs. Additionally, starting outside linebacker Uchenna Nwosu is listed as doubtful with an ankle injury after failing to practice all week.

Four backups are listed as questionable for the Seahawks: quarterback Drew Lock (right elbow), guard Anthony Bradford (knee), linebacker Patrick O'Connell (toe), and defensive tackle Brandon Pili (back). Following the trade for All-Pro left guard Quenton Nelson, Grey Zabel has moved to right guard, relegating Bradford to a reserve role.
