Seahawks Unsure Who Starts at Quarterback After Drew Lock's Win Over Arizona

Sam Darnold missed Sunday with a quad injury and Lock hurt his oblique in the 17-3 win. Mike Macdonald said both will be reevaluated early in the week before Sunday's game against the Raiders.

The Seattle Seahawks do not know whether Sam Darnold or Drew Lock will start Sunday against the Las Vegas Raiders. Darnold sat out Sunday's 17-3 win over Arizona with a quad injury, and Lock, making the start, hurt his oblique in the third quarter.

What happened Sunday?

Lock completed 19 of 28 passes for 175 yards and a touchdown and did not miss a snap after the oblique injury; he called it "not too bad." He had been inactive the previous two games with an elbow injury. Darnold hurt his quad at the end of the loss to Chicago, a game he played through with a cracked rib. "I think we'll probably reevaluate early in the week," Macdonald said.

What's next?

Seattle is 5-4 and hosts Las Vegas on Sunday, then has a bye before visiting San Francisco in Week 12.
