Seattle decided not to sign veteran running back Joe Mixon after a physical, delaying his NFL return. The move ends a process that had the team weighing Mixon’s upside against roster fit while dealing with a depleted depth chart. Mixon, who last played for the Texans and posted a 2024 season with over 1,000 rushing yards, would have joined a Seattle group featuring Emanuel Wilson and a mix of pass-catching backs. The Seahawks were already managing injuries and a 21-day window for Zach Charbonnet, with Jadarian Price on injured reserve, leaving continued uncertainty at the position. The outcome shifts the team’s short-term options and signals a continued search for backfield impact going forward.
