  • Team: SEA (Seattle Seahawks)
  • Experience: 3rd year in NFL (undrafted free agent)

2026 Outlook

Third-year RB positioned as a breakout candidate heading into 2026 after Seattle let Kenneth Walker III walk in free agency (to Kansas City Chiefs at $14.3M annually). With first-round RB Jadarian Price and Holani as the clear-cut backfield options, Holani is being significantly underrated and getting first-team reps at OTAs according to ESPN reporting.

Holani flashed during the 2025 playoffs, replacing injured Zach Charbonnet during the NFC Championship Game performance against the Los Angeles Rams. New Seahawks offensive coordinator Brian Fleury—a run-game specialist who was part of Kyle Shanahan's staff with San Francisco—is expected to unlock Holani's potential in an outside-zone run scheme. Fleury's expertise in ground-game design should provide meaningful opportunity for Holani to carry a featured role in Seattle's offensive system (per Once-Questioned 2024 NFL Draft Prospects Proving Doubters Wrong at OTAs - Sports Illustrated).

Holani remains an underrated asset with an opportunity to emerge as a starting RB if he can hold off competition from Jadarian Price and continue the success he showed in the playoffs.

At minicamp (June 9), Holani opened as the first RB behind Sam Darnold but saw Price getting more first-team reps throughout the week and entire drives with the starters. Holani's playoff heroics and blocking in the postseason are still valued by coaches, but the rookie Price is gaining ground in the depth chart (per Seahawks minicamp: Zach Charbonnet surprise, the full Devon Witherspoon, more)).

Role / Depth Chart

Starting RB competing with Jadarian Price. Getting first-team reps at OTAs.

Injury Status
