The Facts: The Seahawks are dealing with injuries right now to their top two running backs. Starter Walker, who was so great as a rookie a year ago, has a groin injury that will keep him out of training camp for a while. And second-round rookie Zach Charbonnet has a shoulder injury that, as of this writing, the team is still testing to determine its severity. ESPN.com's Dan Graziano contends that -- assuming Walker and Charbonnet get healthy in time for the season, the sense he gets is a) Walker would still be the starter and get the bulk of the work and b) Charbonnet would also have a role, perhaps in the two-minute or four-minute offense.

Diehards Line: People Graziano spoke to here believe they complement each other well, and the team anticipates using them in tandem to some extent. But if Charbonnet has to miss extended time in camp, just the fact that he's a rookie could change the Seahawks' plan if they determine he hasn't had enough development time. Several people Graziano talked to in Seattle mentioned how great an offseason Walker had, and they foresee improvement from him in 2023. ... For what it's worth, Graziano doesn't get the sense that the Seahawks are overly concerned about either of these injuries bleeding into the regular season at this point. They could add a back just because they're short on bodies for camp and preseason games, but they like what they have in veteran DeeJay Dallas and seventh-round rookie Kenny McIntosh.
