Seahawks Draft Kansas WR Emmanuel Henderson Jr. at No. 199
The Seattle Seahawks selected Kansas wide receiver Emmanuel Henderson Jr. with the 199th overall pick in the sixth round of the 2026 NFL Draft. Henderson, a former Alabama transfer, posted 766 receiving yards and 45 catches with 5 TDs last season and also contributed as a returner (455 yards on kick returns, including a 94-yard TD), plus running-back experience, giving Seattle versatility. He emphasizes speed and playmaking, especially on special teams, a point echoed by NFL.com’s scouting notes that while he’s fast with potential after the catch, he’ll need work on route running and hands to secure a WR5/6 role and gunner duties on most rosters.
