The Seattle Seahawks are facing uncertainty regarding Nick Emmanwori's availability for Week 1 of the NFL season. ESPN's Jeremy Fowler reported that the young defensive back may not be ready following offseason ankle surgery, despite having a chance to return. Emmanwori's potential absence could compound the losses the Seahawks have already faced in their secondary this offseason, with the departures of Coby Bryant and Riq Woolen. Missing the entirety of preseason appears likely for Emmanwori, putting pressure on the team's defense ahead of their season opener against the New England Patriots.
