Price's absence leaves the Seahawks thin at running back; George Holani and Emanuel Wilson have taken the primary carries with the No. 1 offense, but depth behind them tapers quickly. The source notes that getting Price at least some preseason playing time would be beneficial to provide a glimpse of what the Seahawks hope to have in the offensive backfield, with joint practices against Tennessee late next week as a potential option for more controlled gamelike work.

The first-round pick rookie running back missed his third straight practice Monday and did not participate in Friday's practice or Saturday's team event at Lumen Field. Coach Mike Macdonald indicated the Seahawks are in no hurry to rush him back, saying 'You start putting days and timetable on it with a young guy like that, let's just go attack the heck out of it until you can come back out and practice again.' While the priority is having Price ready for the Sept. 9 opener against New England, his return does not sound imminent.

Price has impressed through three days of training camp with standout pass-catching ability and unexpected proficiency in pass protection—two areas cited as concerns by analysts given his limited usage in those roles at Notre Dame. Coach Macdonald highlighted Price's decisiveness, movement ability, quickness, and speed, noting 'there's not a lot of things that you're checking off that he can't do or that you think that he can't do, so that's exciting.' Linebacker Ernest Jones IV praised Price's route-running and work ethic, saying 'He's good, man. Mature for his age.'

The source reports Price, the Seahawks' first-round pick (32nd overall), has stood out in the first three days of training camp and has a clear opportunity to become an immediate starter with Kenneth Walker III departed and Zach Charbonnet sidelined recovering from an ACL injury. Coach Mike Macdonald emphasized Price will have a big role on early downs, which was Walker's primary role last season, with potential to expand to all three downs and two-minute situations if he continues to demonstrate pass-catching and pass-protection ability.

The Seahawks spent the 32nd overall pick on Price, leading to the conclusion he will emerge as the starter by the time the regular season begins Sept. 9 against the New England Patriots. However, the source notes the Seahawks might ease him into that role as camp begins while stressing that everything must be earned, especially on the defending Super Bowl champions. Price is expected to replace Kenneth Walker III's production alongside George Holani and Emmanuel Wilson while Zach Charbonnet recovers from an ACL injury.

The Seahawks spent the 32nd overall pick on Price as a first-round selection to replace Kenneth Walker III at running back. The source concludes that this draft capital leads to the easy conclusion he will emerge as the starter by the time the regular season begins Sept. 9 against the New England Patriots. However, the Seahawks might ease him into that role during camp while stressing that everything must be earned, especially on the defending Super Bowl champions.
