Quarterback plans set for Las Vegas matchup
The Seahawks will start Drew Lock at quarterback against the Las Vegas Raiders. The move gives Sam Darnold extra time to recover from a quad injury and cracked rib. Those injuries occurred during a Week 8 Monday night loss to the Chicago Bears. Seattle enters its Week 11 bye after the game, allowing additional recovery time for Darnold.
Lock manages new injury while delivering results
Lock sustained an oblique injury in the third quarter of a 17-3 win over the Arizona Cardinals. The team believes the injury can be managed during the week. Across two full games and most of a third filling in for Darnold, Lock has avoided turnovers and the Seahawks have won each outing.
Offense stays steady during quarterback transition
Seattle's offensive output has remained consistent with Lock under center. The team has leaned on his availability while Darnold heals. Lock expressed confidence in playing through the oblique issue after the Cardinals game, and the club views his status as workable for the Raiders matchup.
