Seahawks Sign Emanuel Wilson for Running Back Depth

Seahawks Sign Running Back Emanuel Wilson: Depth Move Ahead of Draft

The Seattle Seahawks have signed running back Emanuel Wilson to a one-year deal worth up to $2.1 million for the 2026 season. This move comes after Super Bowl MVP Kenneth Walker left for the Kansas City Chiefs. Wilson, who served as the Green Bay Packers backup to Josh Jacobs last year, joins the Seahawks as a solid number two back. The Packers, meanwhile, locked in Chris Brooks for less per year, letting Wilson hit unrestricted free agency on a cheaper deal. The Seahawks, with $41 million in cap space and no big compensatory free agent signings yet, aim to protect their future draft picks and add running back depth ahead of the draft.
