Charbonnet rushed 22 times for 134 yards and two touchdowns while corralling all seven of his targets for 59 yards in Sunday's 30-18 win over Arizona. Starter Kenneth Walker (ankle/calf) was unable to suit up for Sunday's crucial NFC West battle, opening the door for Charbonnet to make his third start of the campaign. The sophomore backup wound up setting new career highs in both rushing (134) and receiving yards (59) while punching in a pair of touchdowns. Five of Charbonnet's seven touchdown rushes have come in three spot-starts for Walker this season, highlighting the major fantasy value that can be unearthed in those scenarios. Fantasy managers who missed out on Sunday's point bonanza should monitor Walker's status for Week 15 before putting in large bids for Seattle's talented backup ahead of next Sunday's tilt against Green Bay.

Charbonnet appears set to lead Seattle's backfield Sunday versus Arizona with Kenneth Walker III (ankle/calf) downgraded to out for the critical NFC West clash. Walker has been a workhorse for the Seahawks this season, relegating Charbonnet to a minor role as the team's backup RB. However, Walker will be unable to suit up for Sunday's matchup -- a game that will determine which of the two teams assumes control of the the division -- and Charbonnet will almost certainly be thrust into a bigger workload than usual as a result. When Walker missed two games earlier this season (in Weeks 2 and 3), Charbonnet stepped in and averaged 16 carries for 64.5 yards while scoring three total rushing touchdowns across the pair of contests, and he could be headed for a similar carry count against the Cardinals. Kenny McIntosh could be in the mix for an increase in offensive snaps as well, but he's unlikely to be given a large workload given that he hasn't logged a snap on offense in any of Seattle's past five games.
Charbonnet rushed four times for 28 yards and a touchdown and caught two of three targets for 13 yards in Sunday's 26-21 win over the Jets. Charbonnet scored the Seahawks' game-winning touchdown with an eight-yard rush in the fourth quarter. This was his second touch within the 10-yard line Sunday. The 2023 second-round pick has yet to post more than 30 rushing yards in a game since Week 3 when Kenneth Walker was inactive, so Charbonnet's floor is highly concerning as long as Walker is upright.
Charbonnet rushed six times for 22 yards in Sunday's 16-6 win over the Cardinals. Charbonnet handled a 38 percent snap share and received two goal-line touches, but he still produced minimal results in the divisional win. However, Kenneth Walker endured similar struggles on the ground, rushing 16 times for 41 yards but catching four of six targets for 52 yards. The goal-line touches are intriguing for Charbonnet's deep-league value, but it's fairly difficult to trust him otherwise.
Charbonnet rushed four times for three yards and caught two passes (two targets) for two yards in Sunday's 20-17 win over the 49ers. Charbonnet continues to serve as the distant No. 2 running back behind Kenneth Walker, who produced 59 yards and a touchdown on 16 touches. Even worse, Charbonnet was quite inefficient in Sunday's win. While he's worth holding onto in case Walker gets injured, Charbonnet has minimal standalone value.
Charbonnet rushed twice for eight yards and caught two of three targets for 25 yards in Sunday's 26-20 loss to the Rams. Charbonnet didn't make a big impact in the box score with just five touches in Sunday's overtime loss. The backup saw 23 fewer touches than starter Kenneth Walker, highlighting the sophomore's lack of fantasy value when Seattle's backfield is at full strength. Charbonnet should remain a deep-league option coming out of the bye week when the Seahawks visit the 49ers on Nov. 17.
Charbonnet rushed three times for four yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 31-10 loss to the Bills. He also caught three of four targets for 20 yards. Charbonnet handled 22 offensive snaps compared to Kenneth Walker's 25 snaps, which translated to 45 yards on 13 touches. It's encouraging that Charbonnet received a goal-line touch, but it's worth noting that the Seahawks were trailing 31-3 at the time. Charbonnet has been quite inefficient this year with 3.5 yards per carry, and he'll continue to have limited upside as long as Walker is healthy.
Charbonnet rushed eight times for 19 yards and caught his lone target for a five-yard loss in Sunday's 34-14 win over the Falcons. Charbonnet actually out-snapped Kenneth Walker, who was dealing with an illness prior to the game. However, Walker finished with 93 total yards and two touchdowns while Charbonnet couldn't get much going on the ground or as a receiver. Walker has proved to be an effective receiver while also operating as the primary goal-line back, making Charbonnet tough to start in most fantasy formats.
Charbonnet rushed five times for 20 yards and caught his lone target for 15 yards in Thursday's 36-24 loss to the 49ers. Kenneth Walker remained the clear No. 1 option in the Seahawks' backfield, as Charbonnet's fellow running back recorded 14 carries and eight catches (eight targets) for a combined 69 yards. Charbonnet won't be a dependable fantasy option as long as Walker is healthy, but he should have some deep-league appeal in favorable matchups.
