Seahawks' Nick Emmanwori has ankle surgery, expected to play W1

SEATTLE -- Seahawks standout safety Nick Emmanwori is expected to miss some time in training camp but be ready by Week 1 following right ankle surgery, sources told ESPN.

Emmanwori was placed on the physically unable to perform list Monday. It was not immediately clear why, as he has practiced throughout the spring.

A second-round pick in 2025, Emmanwori dealt with a pair of right ankle injuries as a rookie. He suffered a high sprain on the first series of the season opener, which caused him to miss the remainder of that game and the following three. Four days before Super Bowl LX, he suffered a low sprain in practice, then played through the injury as Seattle beat the New England Patriots.
