An All-22 review of Jadarian Price’s Seahawks debut vs. Patriots

Rookie running back Jadarian Price enjoyed an encouraging first appearance for the Seattle Seahawks in their 13-10 victory over the New England Patriots to open the 2026 NFL campaign. Taking the field at Lumen Field on September 9, Price donned jersey number 8 and collected handoffs from quarterback Drew Lock, who wore number 2 during the contest.

The matchup marked a winning start for Seattle while starting signal-caller Sam Darnold was sidelined by an absence expected to be brief.

The season opener also featured an unusual schematic twist orchestrated by offensive coordinator Brian Fleury, who positioned wide receiver Jaxon Smith-Njigba at left tackle during an unbalanced set in the third quarter. Following the narrow triumph, discussions have surfaced regarding the prospect of expanding Price's workload as Seattle prepares for its Week 2 contest.
