“Nick keeps showing up, “Macdonald said. “I have to tell him, ‘Hey, man, the door is closed. Knock.’ No, Nick has been up there a bunch.”
Spoiler: He still doesn’t knock.
“Coach Mike, I think he’s a great coach and I like being around great people,” Emmanwori said. “So when I came in, I just came from college and I was always upstairs in my head coach’s office in my DB room’s office. So I just want to bring that tradition over to the NFL. In the NFL they try to say the relationships aren’t as tight, it’s more business-like, but that’s one thing I wanted to change if that was a narrative. But here at Seattle it’s not the narrative, it’s kind of real family-like. So I just like bugging him a little bit, just asking about whatever’s going on. Life plays, football, it doesn’t matter… I still don’t knock”
He also gets that family-like feeling from his teammates who he feels like he has brotherly relationships with.
“I think we got the best vets in the league, man, Julian [Love], Coby [Bryant] Spoon, Riq [Woolen]. Even on the d-line with Leo [Williams] Jarran Reed, Boye [Mafe], Ernest Jones, former South Carolina player. So I think we got some of the best vets in the league, but specifically with the DB room man, they’re just all kind of like a big brother figure. I got four older brothers, so it kind of just feels like that big brother, little brother relationship man. Julian and Coby, they’re vets, they’re pros. Everything they attack, which is film, either on the field, they’re just ahead of the game. So they’re trying to catch me up with them too.”
