The Facts: If he stays healthy for all 16 games, it's not a stretch to suggest Prosise could catch 60 passes.
Diehards Line:
This according to ESPN.com's Sheil Kapadia, who noted that Seahawks running backs caught 75 balls last year, and he's going to be on the field in all obvious passing situations. The coaches love Prosise but have questioned his durability. Prosise is different than Eddie Lacy and Thomas Rawls in that he is easily their best receiving back. It's a small sample size, but last year, the numbers when targeting Prosise in the passing game were impressive: 17-for-18 for 208 yards (12.24 yards per reception). As for the run game, Kapadia is putting Lacy down for 15 carries, leaving 10 more per game for Rawls and Prosise with six carries per game for Prosise and four for Rawls. Lacy and Rawls have similar styles, so if there's not much of a difference in their effectiveness, the gap between their workloads could be smaller. Either way, Prosise seems like a good bet for 10 touches per game between carries and catches.
