The Seahawks made strategic moves to bolster their running back depth ahead of the NFC Championship game against the Rams. They elevated Cam Akers and Velus Jones Jr. to the active roster, along with George Holani, who was activated from injured reserve. These additions provide much-needed support to the team's running back corps, especially after Zach Charbonnet's season-ending knee injury in the previous game against the 49ers. Akers, a former second-round pick of the Rams, brings valuable experience, having appeared in three games for the Seahawks since November, including two kick returns for 54 yards. Jones, a fourth-year veteran, has a history with the team, having played in three regular-season games for Seattle this year and last week's divisional round win over the Rams. He contributed four carries for 32 yards in the regular season and six carries for 10 yards in the previous game. The Seahawks' strategic use of these players showcases their ability to adapt and strengthen their roster for critical games, ensuring a competitive edge in the NFC Championship.
