Drew Lock injures oblique as Seahawks beat Cardinals 17-3 in Week 9, with QB depth now in question

Drew Lock threw a touchdown and left with an oblique injury after leading the Seattle Seahawks to a 17-3 win over the Arizona Cardinals.

The Story

With Sam Darnold sidelined, Drew Lock led the Seattle Seahawks to a 17-3 victory over the Arizona Cardinals in Week 9.

After the game, Seahawks head coach Mike Macdonald said Lock injured his oblique.

Lock still finished the matchup, completing 19 of 28 passes for 175 yards and a touchdown.

Macdonald said Lock’s availability is unclear for the Seahawks’ next Sunday game against the Las Vegas Raiders.

The Seahawks have turned to Lock in place of Darnold this season, and he has completed 71.1 per cent of his passes for 597 yards with five touchdowns and zero interceptions.

Lock also said his oblique “didn’t affect [him] much,” adding: “I mean, you feel it, but it’s nothing that was gonna keep me on the sideline.”

This was the second win Lock has led over the Cardinals, and it followed a Week 1 win he helped produce against the New England Patriots.
