UPDATE: Zach Charbonnet never returned to Saturday’s game


Seahawks running back Zach Charbonnet is questionable to return to Saturday’s Divisional Round matchup with the 49ers after suffering an apparent leg injury in the second quarter.

Charbonnet, who handled five carries for 20 yards, went to the blue medical tent with just over three minutes to go before intermission, following a head on collision with San Francisco linebacker Dee Winters.

On the same drive, fellow running back Kenneth Walker III punched in a seven-yard touchdown rush to extend Seattles lead to 24-6 heading into the break.

Stay tuned to DraftKings Network for updates regarding Charbonnet’s status.
