Sam Darnold praises Seahawks' new running back, Jadarian Price
For Price, this is a mild positive signal in an otherwise crowded or unclear Seahawks backfield. Quarterback praise doesn't guarantee touches, but it's the kind of soft data point that can hint at coaching-staff confidence before beat reporters confirm a depth chart. Treat Price as a speculative late-round flier or priority stash candidate in dynasty and deeper redraft leagues — someone to monitor through the rest of camp and preseason games rather than someone to draft with confidence right now. Given the low confidence (50-80%) and vague sourcing on the actual running back situation, don't overreact and reach for him ahead of players with clearer roles.
Bottom line: no action needed on Darnold. For Price, keep him on your watchlist and revisit his ADP once actual practice reports, snap counts, or preseason usage start clarifying whether this praise translates into real touches. This is a "note it and wait" situation, not a "draft him now" situation.
The Seahawks made a big change at running back this offseason and quarterback Sam Darnold likes how things are shaping up in the backfield.
