Seahawks Sign Veteran RB Khalil Herbert After Dominant Win and Roster Shakeup
The Seattle Seahawks have made strategic roster moves following a 44-13 victory over the New Orleans Saints. They signed veteran running back Khalil Herbert to their practice squad to reinforce their backfield, especially with uncertainties surrounding Zach Charbonnet’s injury status. Herbert, 27, a former Chicago Bears draft pick, brings experience with 731 rushing yards and four touchdowns in 2022, and recent NFL camp experience with the Colts. The Seahawks also promoted wide receiver Cody White to their active roster and placed rookie Jacardia Wright on injured reserve after a foot injury. Herbert’s addition aims to provide a physical, downhill running option and could see him elevated to the active roster if Charbonnet remains sidelined. The team’s quick roster adjustments reflect their focus on maintaining a competitive edge in a tight NFC West race, with upcoming Thursday Night Football against the Arizona Cardinals.
