Seattle Seahawks safety Nick Emmanwori is expected to return for Week 1 after undergoing right ankle surgery this offseason. Despite being placed on the PUP list, he participated in offseason workouts but opted for surgery due to persistent soreness. Emmanwori, a former three-star prospect, was selected 35th overall in the 2025 NFL Draft and had a notable rookie season, recording 81 tackles and 2.5 sacks in 14 games. He was recognized as a First-Team AP All-American in 2024.
