Seahawks secondary faces injury concerns ahead of Week 1 Patriots matchup

The Seattle Seahawks enter their 2026 season opener against the New England Patriots with significant health concerns in their defensive secondary. Starting safety Ty Okada missed Sunday's practice due to a hamstring injury, leaving the team with limited depth at the position. Nick Emmanwori also remains limited as he recovers from offseason ankle surgery. Meanwhile, receiver Tory Horton was limited in practice while dealing with a hamstring issue. On the other side of the field, New England Patriots defensive tackle Christian Barmore and running back TreVeyon Henderson did not participate in practice due to their own injuries. New England does not expect Henderson to be available for Wednesday’s game. Seattle successfully integrated rookie cornerback Julian Neal back into a full practice session, providing a positive development for the team's reshaped secondary unit.
