About this episode

Seahawks brace for Week 1 against Patriots with defensive backfield woes—safety depth thin after Nick Emmanwori’s limited practice and Ty Okada’s hamstring absence, forcing a practice squad call-up for D’Anthony Bell. Other injuries hit guard Anthony Bradford and tackle Josh Jones with knee issues, plus receiver Tory Horton with a hamstring strain. But there’s good news: cornerback Julian Neal and running back Emanuel Wilson cleared with minor issues, keeping the team’s outlook from total disaster as they gear up for kickoff.

On September 7th, alright let's talk about the Seattle Seahawks. They're getting ready for their first game of the 2026 season against the New England Patriots, but it looks like they're defensive. Backfield might be a little thin, specifically the safety position is seeing some trouble. Second year player Nick Mnworry, who's been rehabbing from surgery, was only able to do limited drills in practice on Sunday, and he's not the only one dealing with a lower body issue. Ty Okada, another safety, had to sit out practice completely because of a hamstring injury. Right now, the Seahawks only have three safeties on their main 53 man roster. That's why they went ahead and brought the Anthony Bell onto the practice quad this past weekend. It's a move to add some depth given the current situation. The full injury report from Sunday's practice showed a few other guys dealing with bumps and bruises. Guard Anthony Bradford and tackle Josh Jones were limited with knee issues, and receiver Tori Horton also had hamstring problems. On a brighter note, cornerback Julian Neal was a full participant with a quad issue,

and running back a manual Wilson was also good to go with his hamstring. So, while the secondary has some concerns, other parts of the team seem to be in better shape as they head into week one. You've been listening to NFL News today, AI-powered football coverage.
