Seahawks Sign RB Emanuel Wilson, Boosting Backfield

On March 13th, the Seattle Seahawks just signed running back Immanuel Wilson from the Green Bay Packers on Friday March 13th, 2026.

This comes right after they lost Kenneth Walker III to the Kansas City Chiefs.

The 5-foot-10, 226-pound back brings solid experience with out-thousand 83 rushing yards, seven touchdowns, and A.

4.4 yards per carry, average over 3 NFL seasons.

Wilson started as an undrafted free agent with the Denver Broncos, but quickly moved to the Packers, where he earned a spot on the 53 man.

Roster as a rookie, he appeared in 41 games total, starting five before a shoulder injury sidelined him.

A Fort Valley State alum, from a division to HBCU in Georgia, Wilson grew up idolizing Seahawks legends like Sean Alexander and Marshawn Lynch.

He called the offer a total shock and feels blessed to join his childhood team.

Wilson loves Seattle's explosive offense from watching them last season.

He describes himself as a physical, downhill runner packed with speed.

With this addition, the Seahawks are bolstering their backfield early in free agency, setting up an intriguing mix for next season.
