The Seahawks have placed defensive back Nick Emmanwori<\/strong> on the lively\/physically unable to perform list, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network<\/a> reports. Running back Kenny McIntosh<\/strong> and cornerback Tyrone Broden<\/strong> can even begin training camp on lively\/PUP.<\/p>\n <\/a><\/p>\n There is no such thing as a word on why Emmanwori landed on the list, as Brady Henderson of ESPN<\/a> notes the second-year man took part in OTAs and minicamp. McIntosh remains to be on the mend from the ACL tear he suffered last July, while Broden is working back from an undisclosed injury he incurred last November. All three players are eligible to come back off lively\/PUP and start practice. Nonetheless, in the event that they are still on the list when teams finalize their rosters on Aug. 30, they’ll move to order\/PUP and miss a minimum of the primary 4 games of the regular season.<\/p>\n Emmanwori, probably the most notable player on this trio, finished because the runner-up to Browns linebacker Carson Schwesinger<\/strong> in Defensive Rookie of the Yr voting last season.. Taken thirty fifth overall within the 2025 draft, the previous South Carolina star tallied 81 tackles, 18 pressures (most amongst safeties), 11 passes defensed, nine TFL, 4 QB hits, 2.5 sacks and an interception over 14 games and 11 starts.<\/p>\n While playing 768 snaps, the seventh-highest total on an elite defense, the versatile Emmanwori saw significant time as a slot corner and a box safety. He also played 113 snaps near the road of scrimmage. Emmanwori added one other 13 tackles, 4 PDs and a fumble recovery in three playoff games. He notched five tackles within the Seahawks\u2019 Super Bowl LX win over the Patriots. Between the regular season and playoffs, he was the one safety within the league to rack up a minimum of 15 pressures and 10 PDs, per Jeremy Fowler of ESPN<\/a>.<\/p>\n Barring a serious injury, Emmanwori will once more fill a significant role as a chess piece under head coach Mike Macdonald<\/strong> and defensive coordinator Aden Durde<\/strong> in 2026. Thanks partially to Emmanwori\u2019s efforts, Seattle\u2019s defense finished last season first in scoring and tenth against the pass.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" The Seahawks have placed defensive back Nick Emmanwori on the lively\/physically unable to perform list, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
