The power punch of the Seahawks\u2019 running back duo, Charbonnet, racked up 730 rushing yards and a team-leading 12 touchdowns on 184 attempts in 2025.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">A second-round pick out of UCLA, Charbonnet, has been a staple of the Seahawks backfield for his three years, with his role increasing steadily over time.
