Jalen Milroe gets first-team snaps as Seattle weighs QB options for Week 9

The supplied segment says Jalen Milroe is taking first-team reps for the Seattle Seahawks amid quarterback injury uncertainty for Week 9.

The Story

Quarterback depth in Seattle is under review for Week 9 after the supplied segment reported that Jalen Milroe is taking first-team snaps.

The uncertainty is tied to injuries affecting Seattle’s usual options, with the segment stating that Sam Darnold has a quad injury.

It also said Drew Locke was expected to replace Darnold, but Locke has been inactive for the past couple of weeks due to his own injury issues.

With Locke’s availability in question, the segment added that Milroe could be in line to start if he remains on first-team reps, highlighting that other teams may also be looking at quarterbacks making their first NFL starts in Week 9.

The segment further referenced the current betting market, saying Seattle was listed as the favourite by 8.5 points, while it suggested the spread could move if Milroe were making his first career start. The same segment said the expectation, based on the current line, is that Locke will start.
