Zach Charbonnet underwent surgery to repair the torn anterior cruciate ligament in his left knee on Feb. 20. He started training camp on the active/physically unable to perform list, and it seems likely he will begin the season on the reserve/PUP list.
Seahawks coach Mike Macdonald provided an update on the running back’s rehab.
“It’s just a progression that you’ve got to be able to do to get your body ready to play, especially at the running back position,” Macdonald said, via video from Brian Nemhauser of hawkblogger.com. “He’s going through it, hitting his hurdles, and we’re rolling.
