On March 4th, the Seattle Seahawks faced a tough choice this off-season with star running back Kenneth Walker, the third hitting free agency. The team passed on using the franchise tag on him after four strong seasons where he powered up over 4,500 scrimmage yards and 31 touchdowns. His playoff performance stood out, especially with key rushing yards and big games. Walker shown brightest during the team's deep playoff push, delivering big numbers that kept the offense alive. Without the tag, he's free to shop his talents elsewhere, which can make him just the fourth player ever to earn Super Bowl MVP honors, and then switch teams right away the next year. Fans and analysts worry about the hit to Seattle's ground game, especially since back of Zach Charbonnet is sidelined recovering from a torn ACL. The Seahawks know they must add depth at running back no matter what, to keep their attack balanced heading into next season. Where does the team has eyes on Atlanta Falcons back Tyler Algear as a potential fit?

Algear showed he can handle a heavy load back in 2022, rushing for over a thousand yards on 210 carries, even if his role shrank lately with another star emerging. As free agency Heatsub, Seattle's moves at this position will shape their whole offensive outlook, so keep watching how they rebuild that backfield, punch.
