Asked to clarify if making a move meant potentially putting Emmanwori on injured reserve, Macdonald said, "That's under consideration, yeah. We'll see here in the next few days."
If the Seahawks were to place Emmanwori on injured reserve, he would have to sit out at least four games before being eligible to return.
In more positive injury news, the Seahawks are hoping they could get back all three players who missed the opener due to injury, outside linebacker Uchenna Nwosu (knee), receiver Dareke Young (hamstring) and receiver Jake Bobo (concussion).
"Optimistic with all three," Macdonald said. "Chenna is definitely practicing. We'll see Dareke as it unfolds, and same thing with Bobo, but optimistic about those latter two."
