Drew Lock to start for Seahawks as sore elbow and reshuffled roster tested vs Cardinals at Lumen Field

Seattle signed Deven Eastern and elevated two players ahead of Sunday’s Cardinals rematch, with Drew Lock set to start despite a sore elbow.

The Story

The Seattle Seahawks will hand the offence to Drew Lock for Sunday’s rematch against the Arizona Cardinals at Lumen Field, with Lock listed as set to start despite a sore elbow.

The change comes as Seattle navigates a heavier injury load and additional uncertainty heading into Week 9.

The Seahawks are coming off a loss to the Chicago Bears on Monday night, and the team’s injury situation worsened again on Friday.

Ahead of Sunday’s game, Seattle signed Deven Eastern off the practice squad and elevated two players, a move described as a clear signal that the club is leaning on roster adjustments rather than operating with conventional depth.

With Lock starting under those circumstances, the focus for Seattle’s offence will be on maintaining structure despite the reshuffled lineup and ongoing injury pressure.

Arizona will be facing a Seahawks team that has had to adjust and improvise through its recent injury problems as the two teams meet again at Lumen Field.
