Seahawks' Ty Okada: Unavailable for Week 1
Okada (hamstring) has been ruled out for Wednesday night's contest against the Patriots, Curtis Crabtree of Fox 13 Seattle reports.
Okada was unavailable for practice all week long as a result of a hamstring injury and he will now be forced to miss the regular-season opener. The Seahawks may have to get creative in the secondary with Bud Clark (ankle) already expected to miss multiple months of action.

Seahawks' Ty Okada: Misses consecutive sessions
Okada (hamstring) did not participate in Monday's practice, Corbin K. Smith of SI.com reports.
Okada sat out Sunday's practice as well, marking consecutive missed sessions due to the hamstring injury. It appears increasingly unlikely the 27-year-old will be able to suit up for Wednesday's Week 1 matchup against the Patriots, and it remains to be seen who'll slide into Okada's starting strong safety role if he's indeed sidelined.

Seahawks' Ty Okada: DNP with new injury
Okada (hamstring) did not participate in Sunday's practice, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.
Okada's absence due to injury does not bode well for the strong safety's chances to suit up in Wednesday's NFL opener against the Patriots. With Bud Clark on IR, D'Anthony Bell may get an elevation to the active roster from the practice squad to start or support one of the other defensive backs for Week 1.

Seahawks' Ty Okada: Signs tender with champs
Okada signed his exclusive-rights tender with the Seahawks on Monday, John Boyle of the team's official site reports.
Okada is set to make $1.145 million over the 2026 campaign. The safety had a breakout year in 2025, starting 11 games for the Seahawks' secondary during the regular season and helping to secure the team's second Super Bowl win in franchise history. While the exclusive-rights tender locks Okada into a one-year deal, it is likely the ascending defensive back will see a much larger payday after the 2026 season concludes.

Seahawks' Ty Okada: Gets tendered by Seattle
The Seahawks tendered Okada to a one-year, league-minimum contract Monday, John Boyle of the team's official site reports.
By being tendered as an exclusive rights free agent, Okada will not have the ability to negotiate a contract with another team this offseason. The Montana State product played in nine regular-season games from 2023 to 2024 and saw limited playing time. However, Okada started in 11 of 17 regular-season games in 2025 due to various injuries in the Seahawks' secondary and finished with 65 tackles (46 solo), including 1.5 sacks, six pass defenses (one interception) and one fumble recovery. Given his strong play last season, Okada should have a shot at earning a more permanent role on defense in 2026.

Seahawks' Ty Okada: Full participant Thursday
Okada (oblique) was a full participant in practice Thursday, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.
The safety was limited in Wednesday's session. Okada has been dealing with the injury since Week 12 but has not missed any time, and he appears likely to play again this Sunday against the Colts.

Seahawks' Ty Okada: Back on injury report
Okada (oblique) was limited in Wednesday's practice, Corbin K. Smith of SI.com reports.
Okada suffered a seemingly serious oblique injury in Week 12 but ultimately didn't miss any time. He's been on the injury report since, though he appears likely to suit up in Week 15 against the Colts.

Seahawks' Ty Okada: Full participant Thursday
Okada (oblique) was a full participant in practice Thursday after being limited Wednesday, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.
The starting free safety played through the injury in Week 13 against the Vikings and stayed on the field for 96 percent of Seattle's defensive snaps, so his limited participation Wednesday was likely precautionary. Okada looks on track to play Sunday against Atlanta. He has 49 tackles (32 solo), including 1.5 sacks, five pass breakups, including one interception, and a fumble recovery on the year.

Seahawks' Ty Okada: Limited in practice
Okada (oblique) was a limited participant in Seattle's practice Wednesday, John Boyle of the team's official site reports.
Okada played through his injury during the Week 13 win over the Vikings, so his reduced workload in practice is likely precautionary. The 26-year-old should continue to serve as the team's starting free safety during Sunday's matchup versus Atlanta.

Seahawks' Ty Okada: Good to go
Okada (oblique) is active for Sunday's matchup with the Vikings.
The safety suffered the injury last week against Tennessee and appeared to possibly be headed for injured reserve, as Seattle coach Mike Macdonald relayed after the contest, per Brady Henderson of ESPN.com. However, Okada returned to practice Thursday and entered the weekend with a questionable tag. Now that he's good to go, he should be in line to start Sunday.

Seahawks' Ty Okada: Limited in Thursday's practice
Okada (oblique) was a limited participant in Thursday's practice, Bob Condotta of The Seattle Times reports.
Okada's return to practice Thursday comes as a bit of a surprise, given that head coach Mike Macdonald relayed Monday that the third-year safety was a candidate for injured reserve due to an oblique injury. Nevertheless, Okada's ability to practice -- albeit in a limited capacity -- is an encouraging sign that the injury is not as severe as once thought. Friday's practice report should shed more light on Okada's chances of playing Sunday against Minnesota.

Seahawks' Ty Okada: Questionable for Week 13
Okada (oblique) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Vikings, Bob Condotta of The Seattle Times reports.
With Julian Love (hamstring) on injured reserve, D'Anthony Bell would likely be next up at safety if Okada is unable to play. Okada has started eight of 11 games in which he's appeared this season, registering 47 tackles (30 solo), including 1.5 sacks, and five pass breakups, with one interception.

Seahawks' Ty Okada: Looking at extended absence
Head coach Mike Macdonald said Monday that Okada could be placed on injured reserve due to an oblique injury, Brady Henderson of ESPN.com reports.
Okada injured his oblique during the first half of Sunday's 30-24 win over the Titans, which prevented him from returning for the second. A stint on injured reserve would require Okada to miss at least four games, so if the move takes place before the Seahawks' Week 13 clash against the Vikings, he would be eligible to return in Week 17 against the Panthers on Saturday, Dec. 27. Okada has started in each of Seattle's last seven games, but the Seahawks could be getting reinforcements at safety this week as Julian Love (hamstring) is eligible to be activated off IR.

Seahawks' Ty Okada: Hurts oblique, done for Week 12
Okada (oblique) has been ruled out for the remainder of Sunday's matchup against Tennessee, Corbin K. Smith of SI.com reports.
Okada was hurt during the first half and was ruled out just before the beginning of the third quarter. Before getting injured, he tallied two tackles (both solo). Nick Emmanwori figures to log more defensive snaps at safety with Okada sidelined.

Seahawks' Ty Okada: Solid in close loss
Okada recorded six tackles (two solo) during Sunday's 21-19 loss against the Rams.
The Seahawks actually held the ball for the bulk of the Week 11 contest, and Okada logged his lowest defensive snap count (46) since Week 4 at Arizona. He still managed to collect six tackles though, perhaps appeasing some fantasy managers relying on him for IDP production. He'll remain on the outer fringes of IDP relevance for a Week 12 matchup at Tennessee.
