Emanuel Wilson Week 5 Outlook - 49ers at Seahawks

By Derek Brown (FantasyPros), Thu, Oct 8th 2026, 1:35pm EDT

Last week, Emanuel Wilson was the RB6 in fantasy as Seattle's lead back. I expect him to hold that role again this week. Last week, Wilson played 58.6% of the snaps with a 63.6% rushing share, a 34.6% route share, and an 18.2% target share. He finished with 24 touches and 120 total yards (two scores). Wilson has been fairly efficient with this workload. Among 46 qualifying rushers, he ranks 23rd in yards after contact per attempt and 18th in missed tackle rate. Wilson should have success again this week against a 49ers' run defense that has allowed the 13th-highest rushing success rate, the tenth-highest yards before contact per attempt, and the 11th-highest gap rushing success rate (Wilson: 41.5% gap).
