The Seahawks haven't had a running back start more than seven games in a season since 2014, a trend they hope they can break this season.
Maybe it’s just the percentages of football catching up to the Seahawks.
“It’s an unfortunate part of the game,’’ Seahawks running backs coach Chad Morton says of injuries. “But it’s just a reality.”
One Morton has had to deal with more than he anticipated when he first began coaching that position with Seattle in 2015.
Then, when Morton first was assistant running backs coach before taking over as the head running backs coach in 2017, Seattle had as stable of a situation at tailback as could be.
