On March 10th, the Seattle Seahawks are hunting for a new starting running back after Kenneth Walker III bolted to the Kansas City Chiefs on a big, free agent deal. Walker, the Super Bowl MVP from their championship run, leaves a huge hole since the team already won that title. With Zack Sharbinay sidelined by an uncertain ACL recovery, the current backfield looks thin. Other top free agents like Tyler Algear, Rico Doudal, and J.K. Dovins have signed elsewhere, thinning the pool early. Seattle's options now include guys like George Halani with just 25 career carries. Cam Acres, who barely saw the field, and Kenny McIntosh, coming off his own knee injury. Fans and analysts worry this could hurt the Seahawks ground game, especially after Walker's ball security and explosiveness. The team might lean on powerrunners or receiving threats to keep defenses honest, but the lack of proven depth puts pressure on coach Mike McDonald to act fast.

As day two of the legal tampering window unfolds, names like Brian Robinson Jr. with ties to the new offensive coordinator, Najee Harris, on A. Discount deal despite injuries, Rashad White as a pass-catching option to roam for for speed, veteran Aaron Jones, or young spister Keaton, Mitchell are floating around. Whether they snag a free agent, chase a trade, or stock up in the draft, Seattle needs to bolster that room soon to stay in contention.
