Seahawks safety Nick Emmanwori placed on PUP list after ankle surgery

The Seattle Seahawks have placed safety Nick Emmanwori on the physically unable to perform list as he recovers from ankle surgery. Emmanwori did not participate in the opening of training camp. Last season, he played 765 defensive snaps, registering one interception and eight pass breakups. Head coach Mike Macdonald expressed optimism about Emmanwori's recovery but indicated no timeline for his return. In his absence, D’Anthony Bell may take on a larger role, with Macdonald confident in the team's depth at the position.
