After a bad, but not totally humiliating home defeat against the San Francisco 49ers in Week 12, the Seattle Seahawks are looking to get back on track with a tough Thursday night game at the mighty (when favored, and at a home) 8-3 Dallas Cowboys team still competing for the AFC East title.
Yet, it seems like the Seahawks may have to compete in Texas without one of their offensive stars, per NFL Insider King, Ian Rapoport.

What Does This Mean For The Seattle Seahawks?
As Maxx Crosby showed last week, being labeled as ‘doubtful’, does not necessarily mean that a player will not contribute to a game. In that same vein – not everyone, in fact, almost no-one, is Maxx Crosby, which is probably why he was the first and only player listed as ‘doubtful’ to play in the 2023 NFL season.
So, running on the assumption that Kenneth Walker will not play, this is obviously not good news for Seattle. Rookie 2nd Round pick, Zach Charbonnet has not quite hit the ground running as many thought he might this season, although he has managed to post at leads 40 yards rushing in each of the past 3 games.
The worse part, is that all of this comes against a Dallas Cowboys run defense that by most metrics ranks in the top 10 in the National Football League. They rank 9th in total rush yards allowed and 8th in adjusted line yards allowed. Not a good time to be missing your number one running back that has accounted for 613 out of a team’s total 1054 rushing yards.
Let’s see if Charbonnet manages to step up and help the 6-5 Seattle Seahawks keep their playoff hopes intact tomorrow night!
