New Seahawks Running Back Robert Henry Jr. Brings ‘A Lot Of Good Stuff’

The Seattle Seahawks have signed rookie running back Robert Henry Jr. to their active roster, providing depth to an injury-depleted backfield. Henry, an undrafted rookie out of UTSA, previously spent time on the Washington Commanders' practice squad before participating in his first practice with Seattle on Wednesday.

Seattle's running back room currently faces several injury absences, including Jadarian Price and Jacardia Wright on injured reserve, alongside Zach Charbonnet recovering from an ACL injury. Seahawks head coach Mike Macdonald praised Henry's vision, burst, and acceleration following his evaluation.
