McIntosh had his best year at Georgia in 2022, earning a 10% target share and averaging more than 10 yards per reception. He will likely need an injury to Kennth Walker or Zach Charbonnet to make a real Fantasy impact for himself, but if he earns third-down work as a rookie, he could put a dent in both players' upside. In Dynasty, McIntosh is hampered by the backs in front of him, his mediocre athletic testing, and the fact that he is already 23 years old. He should not be drafted before Round 4 in rookie-only drafts. He can be ignored in redraft until he earns a Fantasy-relevant role.
The Seahawks placed McIntosh (knee) on injured reserve Saturday, John Boyle of the team's official site reports.
McIntosh was officially ruled out Friday for the season opener against the Rams on Sunday. He has been dealing with a knee sprain since the beginning of training camp. The 2023 seventh-round pick out of Georgia will be forced to sit out the first four games of the season.

Seahawks' Kenny McIntosh: Another RB to Seattle
Rotowire
The Seahawks selected McIntosh in the seventh round of the NFL Draft, 237th overall.
Buried behind Zamir White and James Cook on the Georgia depth chart, McIntosh finally emerged as the team's top back last season leading the team in rushing (829 yards) and receptions (43) out of the backfield. The 23-year-old is slated to work behind Kenneth Walker and Zach Charbonnet as a rookie, but following the offseason loss of Travis Homer, McIntosh could potentially carve out a third-down role in a Seattle backfield that also includes DeeJay Dallas.
