2025 Fantasy Outlook
Visions of Jamal Adams are illustrated when Seattle's brass spoke about Emmanwori's role in the defense, as he can line up at safety, nickelback and in the box if needed. The 6-foot-3, 220-pound defensive back ran a 4.38 second 40-yard dash at the NFL Combine, and the tape shows fluid hips and a keen eye for the ball. With extreme hype in tow, Emmanwori has plenty to prove, but he may not garner a full-time role in the defense immediately because safeties Coby Bryant and Julian Love remain in the fold.

Signed a four-year contract with the Seahawks in July of 2025.
Officially out Week 2
Emmanwori (ankle) has been ruled out for Sunday's Week 2 matchup against Pittsburgh, Michael-Shawn Dugar of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
Emmanwori suffered a high-ankle sprain in Sunday's Week 1 loss to San Francisco, and given the nature of the injury, it's no surprise he's not going to play Week 2. Head coach Mike Macdonald mentioned Wednesday that an IR stint is a possibility for Emmanwori, though the team is still waiting to make a decision on whether such a move is needed. With Emmanwori out for at least Week 2, Ty Okada could see a larger workload in the Seahawks secondary.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Jeremiah's top remaining player
Emmanwori, a talented safety from South Carolina, is deemed as the best remaining player on the board ahead of the second round of the 2025 NFL Draft by Daniel Jeremiah of NFL.com.
ANALYSIS
Jeremiah notes Emmanwori has "ideal instincts and ball skills" and assesses his ideal NFL fit could be as a strong safety, big nickel back or as a sub linebacker because of his ability to undercut routes and get his hands on the ball. Jeremiah adds Emmanwori isn't as suited for a role in the deep half of the field, but he sees the former South Carolina star as an impactful player if he's consistently played close to the line of scrimmage.
