With Price missing time, Wilson leapfrogged George Holani and took over as the early-down back for the Seahawks. The result was a solid 92 yards on 21 carries. If Price is unable to suit up for Week 3, Wilson would be a borderline low-end RB2 for fantasy.

Wilson posted 92 yards in Week 2 fill-in; borderline RB2 if Price sits, but limited runway before Charbonnet returns.

Wilson is seeing value inflated due to rookie Jadarian Price dealing with a shoulder injury that caused him to miss time in the late stages of Week 2. With Price missing time, Wilson leapfrogged George Holani and took over as the early-down back for the Seahawks, posting a solid 92 yards on 21 carries. Early reports suggest Price's injury isn't anything major, but if Price is unable to suit up for Week 3, Wilson would be a borderline low-end RB2 for fantasy in a matchup where Seattle is 6.5-point favorites over the Commanders. Keep in mind, Zach Charbonnet is expected to return in October, so the runway is short for Wilson.
