From the article

Emanuel Wilson took control (for now) of the Seattle backfield, totaling a 21-81-1 rushing line and adding 3-39-1 on four targets. Wilson is eventually going to cede work to the likes of Zach Charbonnet (seemingly a couple weeks away from a return) and perhaps also Price, but he appears likely to remain the feature back in Week 5.

STACKED’s take

Positive signalRole

Wilson's feature back role likely continues vs. 49ers despite Charbonnet's return looming.

Wilson took control of the Seattle backfield on Sunday, totaling a 21-81-1 rushing line and adding 3-39-1 on four targets. His big game came with Jadarian Price on IR, though Wilson has now handled over half of the team's carries in three consecutive games, including a 21-carry, 92-yard effort in Week 2. He is eventually going to cede work to Zach Charbonnet (seemingly a couple weeks away from a return) and perhaps also Price, but he appears likely to remain the feature back in Week 5. Wilson is in a respectable spot against a 49ers defense that has allowed the eighth-most RB fantasy points, including 19-plus to Jeremiyah Love and RJ Harvey over the past two weeks.
