The Seahawks are getting a significant boost back on defense.
Seattle announced on Tuesday that safety Nick Emmanwori has passed his physical after beginning training camp on the physically unable to perform list.
Emmanwori has been recovering from offseason ankle surgery after helping Seattle defeat New England in Super Bowl LX.
While Emmanwori participated in Seattle’s offseason program, he and the team decided to have a procedure done on his ankle for a better long-term outlook.
Emmanwori finished No. 2 in AP defensive rookie of the year voting after recording 11 passes defensed, 2.5 sacks, nine tackles for loss, and an interception in 14 games.
