Joe Mixon, Seahawks Agree to Contract amid Jadarian Price, Zach Charbonnet Injuries
Bleacher Report • • sports
Key Points:
- The Seattle Seahawks have signed veteran running back Joe Mixon to their practice squad to bolster their running back depth amid injuries to rookie Jadarian Price and Zach Charbonnet.
- Price is on injured reserve with a chest injury expected to sideline him for at least four games, while Charbonnet is recovering from a torn ACL and recently began practicing again.
- Emanuel Wilson has stepped up as the primary running back, delivering strong performances, including 81 rushing yards and two total touchdowns in the Seahawks' recent win over the Chargers.
- Mixon, a two-time Pro Bowler with a history of 1,000-yard rushing seasons, provides experienced depth but is unlikely to immediately take over as the lead back.
- The 30-year-old Mixon missed the 2025 season due to a foot injury and was released by the Houston Texans in March, making him available for Seattle.
