Pre-Season Outlook
With Kenneth Walker banged up late in the year, McIntosh finally got a real shot in the Seattle backfield. Over the final five games, he served as Zach Charbonnet's backup and turned 27 carries into 156 yards, averaging 5.6 per attempt. A 2023 seventh-round pick, McIntosh also contributed on kick returns and now enters 2025 as the likely No. 3 back. He will have competition for the role, as the Seahawks drafted former Miami standout Damien Martinez in the seventh round this year, and they also have 2024 UDFA George Holani hoping to earn a roster spot.

Modest production in win
McIntosh rushed seven times for 49 yards and failed to secure his lone target in Sunday's 30-25 win over the Rams.
Analysis: McIntosh played just 13 of the Seahawks' 55 offensive snaps in the contest, operating in a supporting role behind fellow running back Zach Charbonnet (42 snaps). With Kenneth Walker (ankle) on injured reserve for the past two contests, the 24-year-old McIntosh handled seven carries in both games, unable to get much going with his opportunities. The Georgia product finished the season with 31 rushes for 172 yards and three receptions for 22 yards. McIntosh will enter the third year of his…read more

Generates 46 yards
McIntosh rushed seven times for 46 yards in Thursday's 6-3 win over the Bears.
Analysis: With Kenneth Walker (ankle) on injured reserve, McIntosh handled three carries on the opening drive, including a 25-yard run. However, the split backfield was quickly abandoned, as McIntosh finished with just 12 snaps while Zach Charbonnet received 18 touches on 39 snaps. Charbonnet should lead the backfield again in Week 18 versus the Rams while McIntosh mixes in for a modest workload.

Four touches against Vikings
McIntosh rushed three times for 14 yards and caught his lone target for 15 yards in Sunday's 27-24 loss to the Vikings.
Analysis: McIntosh played just 12 of the Seahawks 64 offensive snaps Sunday while operating as Seattle's No. 3 running back. The 24-year-old could see an uptick in opportunities in Week 17, however, with teammate Kenneth Walker (ankle) in danger of missing more time due to an injury suffered against the Vikings. It would likely be Zach Charbonnet (elbow) handling the majority of work out of the backfield if Walker misses time, but while he deals with his own injury, the door could be opened for McIntosh…read more

Rushes three times in loss
McIntosh rushed three times for nine yards in Sunday's 30-13 loss to the Packers.
Analysis: With Kenneth Walker (calf/ankle) out of the lineup, McIntosh served as Zach Chabonnet's primary backup while George Holani generated 10 yards on three carries as the No. 3 back. It's unclear if Walker will play in Week 16 versus the Vikings, but McIntosh's fantasy value is negligible regardless.

Generates 45 total yards
McIntosh rushed seven times for 38 yards and caught both targets for seven yards in Sunday's 30-18 win over the Cardinals.
Analysis: With Kenneth Walker (ankle/calf) inactive, Zach Charbonnet stole the show with 193 total yards and two touchdowns, but McIntosh impressed across his career-high 15 offensive snaps. It's unclear if Walker will be ready to play in Week 15 versus the Packers, but McIntosh should be expected to contribute to some extent if Walker's out again.

Potential for more opportunities
McIntosh could handle additional reps in Sunday's game versus the Cardinals because Kenneth Walker (ankle/calf) has been ruled out.
Analysis: Zach Charbonnet is expected to be the primary back, much like he was in Weeks 2 and 3 when Walker was inactive. During those games, McIntosh played 11 offensive snaps and carried the ball three times for 11 yards. Thus, McIntosh still shouldn't be started in most formats, but he's worth keeping an eye on in deeper leagues in case Walker's injury lingers.

Not involved on offense in Week 4
McIntosh failed to record a single offensive snap in Monday's 42-29 loss to the Lions.
Analysis: With fellow running back Kenneth Walker back in the lineup after missing two weeks with an oblique injury, McIntosh's minimal role on offense dried up Monday. The 24-year-old running back, instead, played exclusively on special teams, logging 16 snaps in the contest. As Seattle's No. 3 back, McIntosh holds little to no fantasy value going forward. The Seahawks will host the Giants in Week 5.

Three carries in win
McIntosh rushed three times for 11 yards in Sunday's 24-3 win over the Dolphins.
Analysis: McIntosh received the first regular-season touches of his career in the big win over Miami. He likely won't play much in close games going forward, especially if Kenneth Walker (oblique) returns in Week 5 versus the Lions.

No touches in win
McIntosh didn't record a touch in Sunday's 23-20 overtime win versus the Patriots.
Analysis: Despite Kenneth Walker (oblique) being inactive, McIntosh didn't receive a touch and played just two offensive snaps, the first of his career. Considering the 2023 seventh-round pick barely played with Walker out, he likley won't have any fantasy upside as long as either Walker or Zach Charbonnet are healthy.

No offensive reps in win
McIntosh didn't play on offense in Sunday's 26-20 win over the Broncos.
Analysis: No. 1 running back Kenneth Walker left in the fourth quarter with an abdominal injury, and Zach Charbonnet carried the entire backfield workload the rest of the game. Walker's status for the Week 2 matchup versus the Patriots is in flux as a result, and if he misses time, McIntosh should line up as the clear No. 2 back behind Charbonnet.

Long TD run in preseason win
McIntosh rushed once for a 56-yard touchdown and secured his only target for a nine-yard gain in the Seahawks' 37-33 preseason win over the Browns on Saturday night.
Analysis: The reserve running back recorded his only carry on the Seahawks' third possession, a drive he closed out with an impressive 56-yard scoring scamper off left guard. The touchdown run was the latest example of impressive play from McIntosh, who put together a strong preseason and appears to have the inside track to open the regular season as the No. 3 back behind Kenneth Walker and Zach Charbonnet (undisclosed).

Makes case to stick as third RB
McIntosh rushed the ball eight times for 46 yards in Saturday's 16-15 preseason loss to the Titans. He added two receptions (on two targets) for 17 yards.
Analysis: McIntosh is reportedly being pushed for the third spot on the depth chart by George Holani, though he got the better end of that competition Saturday. With Kenneth Walker resting and Zach Charbonnet (undisclosed) unavailable, McIntosh got the first touch out of the backfield and also led the team in both attempts and rushing yards. In addition to the volume, McIntosh showed some impressive physicality and had a long gain of 12 yards on the ground while also tacking on a 10-yard reception.

Battling for No. 3 role
McIntosh is competing with undrafted rookie George Holani for the Seahawks' No. 3 running back spot, Michael-Shawn Dugar of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: McIntosh seemed like the front-runner for the role heading into the offseason, but Holani has stood out in preseason as a rusher and a blocker and could claim the job. Last season, Mcintosh didn't play an offensive snap as he was stuck behind Kenneth Walker, Zach Charbonnet and DeeJay Dallas. The No. 3 role isn't expected to provide much fantasy utility as long as Walker and Charbonnet are healthy.

Could get larger role in 2024
McIntosh (thumb) will get the opportunity to compete with DeeJay Dallas for Seattle's third-down running back role this offseason, Nick Lee of SI.com reports.
Analysis: McIntosh dealt with a thumb issue that held him out of the Seahawks' 2023 season finale against the Cardinals, but he seems to be back to full health for OTAs. The 2023 third-round pick appeared in just three games last season, failing to record a single carry while playing 13 total snaps (all on special teams). Heading into Year 2, McIntosh will get a chance to become the Seahawks' primary third-down back, a role that likely won't afford him much usage while both Kenneth Walker and Zach…read more

McIntosh (thumb) is out for Sunday's game against the Cardinals, Bob Condotta of The Seattle Times reports.
Analysis: Coach Pete Carroll said McIntosh injured his thumb in practice this week, Brady Henderson of ESPN.com reports. The rookie running back will end his first regular season having played zero offensive snaps as the Seahawks' fourth running back much of the campaign. Even when Kenneth Walker missed time, McIntosh couldn't see the field behind Zach Charbonnet and DeeJay Dallas.

Still no offensive run
McIntosh didn't play an offensive snap in Thursday's 41-35 loss to the Cowboys.
Analysis: Head coach Pete Carroll hinted towards some offensive work for the seventh-round rookie this week with Kenneth Walker (oblique) still out, but Zach Charbonnet (knee) operated as the workhorse while DeeJay Dallas picked up the rest of the reps. Charbonnet's injury doesn't sound too serious, and if he's back for Week 14 versus the 49ers, McIntosh will likely remain on the bench once again.

McIntosh didn't record an offensive snap in Thursday 31-13 loss to the 49ers.
Analysis: McIntosh suited up for his first NFL game on Thanksgiving Day, dressing as the team's No. 3 back while Kenneth Walker (oblique) was inactive. With Zach Charbonnet serving as the Seahawks' lead back while logging 87 percent of the offensive snaps, DeeJay Dallas stepped in as the No. 2 option and picked up the remaining snaps that lingered, which left no role on offense for McIntosh.

Healthy scratch Week 11
McIntosh (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's contest versus the Rams.
Analysis: McIntosh was moved off IR last weekend following a knee injury, though he didn't play Week 10 against Washington. The rookie appears to be past the knee issue since he came into this weekend without an injury designation, but he still won't make his NFL debut versus Los Angeles. McIntosh's next opportunity to play will come Thanksgiving Day against San Francisco.

Won't play Week 10
McIntosh (knee) was ruled inactive ahead of Sunday's game versus the Commanders.
Analysis: McIntosh was activated off injured reserve Saturday after sitting out the first nine weeks of the season with a knee sprain. However, he'll ultimately have to wait to make his NFL debut, as the team will wait before sending him into game action. The rookie running back's next opportunity to play will come Sunday, Nov. 19 against the Rams. In the meantime, DeeJay Dallas should continue to add depth behind top running backs Kenneth Walker and Zach Charbonnet.

Analysis: McIntosh was placed on the Seahawks' IR on Sept. 9 after sustaining a left knee sprain at the beginning of training camp.

Analysis: McIntosh remains on injured reserve, but his ability to log a full practice bodes well for his chances to return soon.

Analysis: Although McIntosh is dealing with an injury, Carroll said the team got "very good news" regarding his diagnosis. McIntosh was selected by the Seahawks in the seventh round of the 2023 NFL Draft, but his knee issue could limit his opportunities to compete for a role in the offense, especially now that Kenneth Walker (groin) and Zach Charbonnet (shoulder) have returned to practice.
