Seahawks Open 21-Day Practice Window for Running Back Zach Charbonnet

Macon, GA, October 1, 2026 — The Seattle Seahawks have initiated a 21-day practice window for running back Zach Charbonnet, as reported by the Macon Telegraph. This development signals a potential step forward in the player’s return to the active roster.

A 21-day practice window is a procedural step in the National Football League that allows a player designated for return from injured reserve to practice with the team. During this period, the team can evaluate the player’s readiness to return to play. The clock begins when the player is activated to the practice window. If the team decides to activate the player to the active roster from this window, they must do so before the 21-day period expires. Failure to do so could result in the player reverting to injured reserve for the remainder of the season, depending on league rules and the player’s contract status.

The specific reasons for Zach Charbonnet being placed on injured reserve and the nature of his injury have not been detailed in the report from the Macon Telegraph. Similarly, the exact timeline for when the 21-day window began or what the Seahawks plan to do after this period concludes remains undisclosed. The team’s current depth at the running back position and how Charbonnet’s potential return might affect the unit are also factors that have not been elaborated upon in the provided information.

The Macon Telegraph is cited as the source for this news. Further details regarding Charbonnet’s condition and his status with the Seahawks are expected to emerge as the practice window progresses.
