George Holani posts eight carries
George Holani split time in the backfield with Jadarian Price, logging eight carries to 10 for the rookie on Wednesday night.
Seattle Seahawks RB Geoge Holani had eight carries for 29 yards in a Week 1 win over the New England Patriots . Holani was targeted once as a receiver but did not have a catch.
Why It Matters: Holani more or less split the backfield duties with Jadarian Price in Week 1, totaling eight carries to 10 for the rookie -- free-agent signee Emanuel Wilson had two. Holani wasn't nearly as effective, though, and it'll be interesting to see how touches are divvied up in Week 2 and beyond given how explosive Price looked in limited burn. There's also the eventual return of Zach Charbonnet (knee), who should supplant Holani as the No. 2 back at some point. For the moment, Holani holds marginal value as roster depth, but that could be short lived.
