Seahawks hosted Najee Harris
Najee Harris visited Seattle on March 25 as the Seahawks kick the tires on upgrading the backfield around Sam Darnold. Reports tie the move to a possible short‑term deal in the $5.25M range as Seattle looks to add a proven downhill runner (timesofindia.indiatimes.com).
NFL transaction wires and NFL Network insiders Ian Rapoport and Mike Garafolo flagged the Seahawks’ reported interaction with Harris, and Rapoport added that Harris is slated to take a follow‑up visit with the Las Vegas Raiders. (on3.com) Harris remains in rehab after a non‑contact torn Achilles that ended his 2025 season in Week 3 during the Chargers’ game versus the Denver Broncos. (espn.com) Before the injury he appeared in three games in 2025 and registered 15 rushing attempts for 61 yards, according to ESPN’s game logs. (espn.com) Seattle’s backfield picture changed in early March when Super Bowl MVP Kenneth Walker III signed a multi‑year deal with the Kansas City Chiefs reported at roughly $43–45 million, removing Seattle’s incumbent primary ball‑carrier. (espn.com) Zach Charbonnet suffered a torn ACL in the Divisional Round on Jan. 17 and subsequently underwent surgery on Feb. 21, a recovery timeline Seahawks general manager John Schneider described as “very positive.” (si.com) Seattle added former Packers running back Emanuel Wilson on a one‑year deal worth up to $2.1 million on March 13, leaving Wilson, George Holani and Kenny McIntosh as the early top options in the room ahead of any veteran addition. (seahawks.com) Multiple outlets note Harris’s market has been muted because of the Achilles, and local reporting says he’s already been doing treadmill work around the six‑month mark of rehab as he tours teams for a depth‑role opportunity.
