News: 3 days agoHead coach Mike Macdonald said Friday that Price "should be looking at a sooner rather than later return after" the Seahawks' next game in Week 7, Brady Henderson of ESPN.com reports.

Spin: Price was placed on injured reserve after Week 3 due to a lingering chest injury, and while he must miss one more contest to meet the minimum four-game requirement on the list, he appears as if he'll be ready to go when first eligible in Week 8 against the Bears on Monday, Nov. 2. In the meantime, the Seahawks are expected to get back fellow RB Zach Charbonnet (knee), so Price may be relegated to a lessened role once he's healthy enough to play again.

ESPN Fantasy Projection: Price was selected by the Seahawks with the No. 32 overall pick of April's draft. Price managed only 280 career carries while stuck behind Jeremiyah Love at Notre Dame, but he showed well, posting a 4.13 YAC (second best in this rookie class) and 3.6 forced missed tackle rate (third best). He wasn't a factor as a receiver, however, totaling 15 receptions in 41 games. Price has a path to an immediate feature role in Seattle's run-first offense, though he may eventually defer substantial work to Zach Charbonnet (ACL recovery). Value Price as a flex, though he should land on the weekly RB2 radar while Charbonnet is sidelined.
