News: 14 hours agoCharbonnet (undisclosed) is expected to miss Saturday's preseason game against the Titans, Justin Melo of USA Today reports.

Spin: Charbonnet is dealing with what appears like minor tightness, and while it doesn't seem like he'll be sidelined for long, he is a near lock to miss Seattle's second preseason contest. The second-year pro's absence figures to leave more opportunities on the table for Kenny McIntosh, especially as Kenneth Walker and the Seahawks' starters aren't expected to suit up.

ESPN Fantasy Projection: Charbonnet possesses an impressive blend of power and deft receiving skills, and he drew a lot of buzz after being selected by the Seahawks in the second round of last year's NFL draft. Charbonnet was on the field for nearly the same number of snaps as Kenneth Walker III, however, he was not entrusted with an identical workload as a rookie. In fact, Charbonnet registered double-digit carries (an average of 16 per game) only when Walker was sidelined from Weeks 11 through 13 last season. He should have a slightly larger role moving forward, but remains more insurance policy than legitimate starter for fantasy purposes.
