United StatesThe Seattle Seahawks' safety Nick Emmanwori, who missed part of the previous season due to ankle injuries, is expected to return for the start of the 2026 NFL season after undergoing surgery. The team placed him on the PUP (Physically Unable to Perform) list, but the surgery allowed him to potentially play in Week 1. Emmanwori, a second-round draft pick in 2025, contributed significantly during the Super Bowl-winning season with 2.5 sacks, 81 tackles, and other notable stats. His absence was partly due to recurring ankle issues, including a high-ankle sprain early in the season. With the surgery completed, the Seahawks anticipate him being available for their opening game against the New England Patriots.
