Seahawks safety Nick Emmanwori shows positive signs in recovery
Summary

Seattle Seahawks safety Nick Emmanwori has shown encouraging signs in his recovery from ankle surgery. A video posted by Gregg Bell on August 6 captured Emmanwori walking freely during a training camp walkthrough, which contrasts with his previous reliance on a scooter. Emmanwori was placed on the physically unable to perform list prior to training camp but appears to be making progress. Head coach Mike Macdonald indicated that the team does not see the injury as season-ending. The Seahawks can clear him to practice at any time during camp, but remaining on the list when the 53-man roster is set on August 30 would force him to miss the first four games of the season.
