Per Jordan Schultz, the Seattle Seahawks are signing Robert Henry Jr. to their active roster from the Washington Commanders’ practice squad.
Seattle’s first round selection, Jadarian Price,
was recently placed on the injured reserve list and the return of Zach Charbonet is unknown so Seattle was looking for help in the backfield.
The undrafted free agent had an impressive senior season at the University of Texas at San Antonio totaling 1,045 rushing yards and nine touchdowns on 151 carries, averaging 6.9 yards per attempt. He recorded five rushes of 70-plus yards in 2025, which was three more than any other FBS player at that time, and tacked on an additional 118 receiving yards with two touchdowns through the air. Robert was named a first-team All-American Athletic Conference and was a Doak Walker Award semifinalist.
Robert Henry had an impressive showing for the Washington Commanders in their first preseason game, but will now be taking his skills to Seattle.
