The Seahawks have lost leading touchdown scorer Zach Charbonnet for the remainder of the playoffs after a torn ACL. Coach Mike Macdonald confirmed the significant knee injury suffered in the divisional-round win over the 49ers, requiring surgery and an extensive rehab.

Charbonnet, part of a two-headed rushing attack with Kenneth Walker III, rushed for 12 touchdowns during the regular season. His absence places the entire playoff workload on Walker, who rushed for 1,027 yards and three touchdowns in the victory, now set to lead the backfield alone.

Seattle hosts the Los Angeles Rams in the NFC Championship Game this Sunday. The team's depth at running back, including Velus Jones Jr. and Cam Akers, will be tested. Meanwhile, quarterback Sam Darnold is managing a sore oblique but is expected to be ready.
