Seahawks HC Mike Macdonald 'fully' expects Nick Emmanwori (ankle) to play in Super Bowl LX

Seattle Seahawks rookie defensive back Nick Emmanwori is expected to play in Super Bowl LX against the New England Patriots, despite suffering a low ankle sprain during practice. Head coach Mike Macdonald confirmed Emmanwori's status, stating he is confident the rookie will participate in the game. Emmanwori, who has been pivotal in Seattle’s top-ranked defense, sustained the injury during Wednesday's practice but was able to walk off the field on his own. Known for his versatility, Emmanwori has contributed significantly in the postseason with eight tackles, four passes defensed, and a fumble recovery. His ability to cover various positions increases the Seahawks’ defensive options. If Emmanwori's playtime is limited, backup Ty Okada is likely to see increased action. Emmanwori's presence is crucial for Seattle as they prepare for the championship game.
