  Rotowire Sep 3, 2026

  The Seahawks signed Henderson to the practice squad Monday, John Boyle of the team's official site reports. The Seahawks waived Henderson on Sunday, and the rookie sixth-round pick out of Kansas was surprisingly able to clear waivers and has once again signed with the Super Bowl champs. Henderson had a strong preseason, catching four of his six targets for 65 yards and adding 88 return yards on four returns over three games.

• Emmanuel Henderson: Waived by Seattle

  Rotowire Aug 30, 2026

  Henderson was waived by the Seahawks on Sunday, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports. The rookie sixth-round pick out of Kansas has failed to make Seattle's initial 53-man roster. Henderson could garner interest as a back-end option for a team with less depth than the defending champs, as he had some nice moments on special teams during the preseason.

• Seahawks' Emmanuel Henderson: Three catches in preseason tie

  Rotowire Aug 29, 2026

  Henderson secured three of four targets for 58 yards and returned two kickoffs for 41 yards in the Seahawks' 9-9 tie with the Chiefs on Friday. Henderson had his best game of the preseason as a receiver, finishing tied with multiple players for the team lead in receptions and qualifying as the runner-up in receiving yards for the night. The rookie sixth-round pick was serviceable on kickoff returns as well, and he finished the preseason averaging 22.0 yards on his four opportunities in that capacity. Henderson may have shown enough promise to secure a practice-squad role, while his path to a spot on the 53-man roster appears steeper.

  Rotowire Apr 25, 2026

  The Seahawks selected Henderson in the sixth round of the 2026 NFL Draft, 199th overall. Henderson (6-foot-1, 185 pounds) might be a better bet to make a roster than most other sixth-round rookie receiver selections, because Henderson is fully expected to stand out as a special-teams gunner. Henderson was a known special-teams presence even while he was a backup wideout at Alabama, but Henderson managed to log an encouraging season of wideout production in his one year at Kansas. The selection of Henderson might be a bad sign for 2025 seventh-round pick Ricky White, who was also largely selected for his special-teams ability.
