In Today’s Links: in preparation for Sunday’s game against the San Francisco 49ers, our Seattle Seahawks have worked out a few backs and signed one in particular. Robert Henry Jr. will be added to the milieu, and tasked with bolstering a backfield that has made some headway on the season. But, still lacks the explosiveness and game-changing ability that the ‘Hawks associate with their scheme’s success. The 49ers D has certainly been playing well by multiple measures, and our squad will have a task ahead
of them this Sunday. How do you feel about our squad’s backfield? Do you think Emmanuel Wilson, and Zach Charbonnet when he returns, are enough for us to get us through the 2026 season? Or do we need to keep trying on backs until we find the right combo of speed and power the coaching staff desires? Let us know how you feel in the comments below. Thanks for being here. Go, ‘Hawks!
