Tuesday's Injury Report

The Seahawks will be without starting safety Ty Okada for their season opener against the Patriots, the result of a hamstring injury that kept him out of practice this week.

Fellow safety Nick Emmanwori, who had ankle surgery prior to the start of training camp, is listed as questionable after being a limited participant all week. With Okada and Emmanwori being two of the three safeties on Seattle's 53-man roster, along with Julian Love, the Seahawks will surely have to tap into the depth on their practice squad, or ready squad as they call it, with several options available in Rodney Thomas II, AJ Finley, D'Anthony Bell and Maxen Hook.

Receiver Tory Horton, who was limited this week with a hamstring injury is also questionable.

No other players on Seattle's roster have game statuses, meaning everyone else is available, including running back Emanuel Wilson (hamstring) and rookie cornerback Julian Neal (quadricep), who both missed significant time in training camp and did not play in the preseason due to injuries.

For the Patriots, running back TreVeyon Henderson (ankle) and backup center Ben Brown (knee) have been ruled out.

Monday's Injury Report

Starting safety Ty Okada (hamstring) was again a non-participant in Monday's practice, while safety Nick Emmanwori was limited, though head coach Mike Macdonald noted that the second-year defensive back, who is coming back from ankle surgery, was able to do more in Monday's practice than he has previously. If Okada and/or Emmanwori isn't available, the Seahawks' have multiple safety options on the practice squad in Rodney Thomas II, D'Anthony Bell, AJ Finley and Maxen Hook.

"Everybody that's practiced with us and been here throughout camp, we're excited with where they're at, we feel like they could contribute to us playing great football," Macdonald said.

In addition to Emmanwori, two other players were limited, receiver Tory Horton (hamstring) and tackle Josh Jones (knee), while right guard Anthony Bradford (knee) was upgraded from limited on Sunday to full participation on Monday.

For the Patriots, starting defensive tackle Christian Barmore (knee) was a full participant after not practicing a day earlier, while running back TreVeyon Henderson (ankle) and center Ben Brown (knee) did not practice for the second straight day. Brown did not travel with the Patriots, who left for Seattle Monday, and as a result has been ruled out.

Sunday's Injury Report

The Seahawks began preparation for their Wednesday night opener against the Patriots with a practice on Thursday, which was a Monday in terms of their game week, then after a day off, had their usual "Wednesday" practice on Saturday, but per league requirements, the first injury report for both teams was due Sunday. And Sunday's injury report, coming after what would be a usual Thursday practice, featured a couple of previously unknown injuries for the Seahawks.

Starting safety Ty Okada was a non-participant due to a hamstring injury, which is obviously a concern not only because he is a starter, but because the Seahawks are pretty thin at safety when it comes to their 53-man roster, with Julian Love and Nick Emmanwori being the only other two safeties. And Emmanwori, of course, is coming back from ankle surgery—he was listed as limited on Sunday—and his status for Week 1 is uncertain.

The Seahawks do have multiple safety options on their practice squad in Rodney Thomas II, AJ Finley, Maxen Hook and D'Anthony Bell, and feel confident in any of those players should they be called upon on Wednesday.

"Readiness," defensive coordinator Aden Durde said when asked what he's seen from the practice squad safeties. "They breathe confidence into us as coaches, play callers, head coaches. Everyone sees the work they put in, and they're ready to take the opportunity that arises when it comes up."

Okada was the only non-participant in Sunday's practice, while four players were listed as limited—Emmanwori, guard Anthony Bradford (knee), receiver Tory Horton (hamstring) and tackle Josh Jones (knee). Rookie cornerback Julian Neal, who missed a significant part of camp with a quadricep injury, was listed as a full participant, as was running back Emanuel Wilson, who missed time in camp with a hamstring injury.

For the Patriots, three players did not practice, starting defensive tackle Christian Barmore (knee), running back TreVeyon Henderson (ankle), and reserve center Ben Brown (knee).
