Injuries have limited C.J. Prosise to 10 games, 12 carries and nine catches over the last two seasons.
Prosise was able to work throughout the offseason, however, and head coach Pete Carroll said last month that he’ll get a shot to compete if he can remain healthy this summer.
“It has been great to see him healthy,” Carroll said, via the team’s website. “He has been fit throughout, he’s really strong, worked out really hard in the offseason to get his strength right, and his weight is up, but he’s fit and has really been able to do a little bit of everything. So to add him into the competition is really nice. So we’re fired up about C.J. being back.”

The Seahawks drafted Penny in the first round of the 2018 draft and the plan in the backfield for this year appears to start with a Penny/Carson combination at the top of the depth chart. But it looks like Prosise could be a factor this season assuming he can stay healthy. The Seahawks were second in rushing attempts last year.
