According to Condotta, what has stood out the most is Price's pass-catching and apparent knack for understanding pass protection. Those were two things he wasn't asked to do at Notre Dame. Those were cited as concerns by many analysts when the Seahawks selected him 32nd overall, so Condotta's reporting is worth noting. Head coach Mike Macdonald suggested that Price has a chance to become an immediate starter with Ken Walker III gone and Zach Charbonnet still sidelined while recovering from an ACL injury suffered in January.

Price impressing with pass-catching and protection; RB26 ADP offers value if he becomes primary back.

Seahawks rookie running back Jadarian Price has impressed in early training camp, particularly with his pass-catching ability and pass protection understanding—two areas cited as concerns when Seattle selected him 32nd overall. Seattle Times' Bob Condotta reports these were skills Price wasn't asked to develop at Notre Dame. Head coach Mike Macdonald indicated Price has a chance to become an immediate starter with Ken Walker III gone and Zach Charbonnet recovering from an ACL injury. However, uncertainty remains about Charbonnet's return timeline and workload split. Price is currently drafted as RB26, positioning him as a potential value if he emerges as the primary back.
