The Seattle Seahawks are officially going to be without one of their three safeties on Wednesday night against the Patriots. On Tuesday afternoon, Seattle listed gametime designations for three players for their Week 1 debut.
Ty Okada, who has not participated in practice all week, has officially been ruled OUT for the season opener. As for his counterpart, Nick Emmanwori, he is officially listed as QUESTIONABLE. Emmanwori has been recovering from offseason ankle injury all summer, and he has been limited at practice this week. The fact he is questionable is reason for optimism that he could play against the Patriots, but this will of course be the closest monitored ankle in football over the next 24 hours.
Joining Emmanwori with a QUESTIONABLE
designation is wide receiver Tory Horton.
The good news is these are the only three players with an injury designation, meaning everyone else is good to go, including starting right guard Anthony Bradford. New England boasts a stout defensive line, so the Seahawks will need to be at full strength up front to keep Sam Darnold upright.
Seattle kicks off the new season Wednesday night at Lumen Field at 5:20 pm Pacific Time on NBC.
