The Seattle Seahawks are unlikely to have rookie S Nick Emmanwori for Sunday’s Week Two game against the Pittsburgh Steelers. Per Seahawks’ head coach Mike Macdonald via ESPN’s Brady Henderson, Emmanwori suffered a high ankle sprain early in yesterday’s game against the San Francisco 49ers. A multi-week injury, the team is considering placing him on injured reserve. Such a move would knock him out of at least the next four games.
Mike Macdonald said S Nick Emmanwori actually does have a high ankle sprain (he said postgame it didn’t look like one), and that a stint on IR is under consideration.
