QB Sam Darnold Returns to Practice, No Decision yet on Seahawks' Game at the Commanders

  • On Wednesday, the Seattle Seahawks expect quarterback Sam Darnold to return to practice in some capacity as he recovers from a glute injury suffered on September 9. Head coach Mike Macdonald said the team will monitor his progress throughout the week.
  • Darnold suffered a "unique" soft-tissue injury on the fifth play of the season opener against the New England Patriots on September 9. The team avoided placing him on short-term injured reserve, keeping his availability for Week 3 possible.
  • Filling in for Darnold, backup Drew Lock has completed nearly 73% of his passes with four touchdowns and zero turnovers across two wins. Lock's Total QBR of 86.4 ranks fourth among all quarterbacks through two weeks.
  • Rookie running back Jadarian Price avoided long-term damage following a shoulder injury against the Arizona Cardinals, with negative X-rays confirming the good news. The team may also open a 21-day practice window for Zach Charbonnet as he recovers from February ACL surgery.
  • Seattle visits the Washington Commanders this Sunday, facing a secondary that surrendered 279 yards passing and four touchdowns to Dak Prescott in Week 2. Darnold's availability remains uncertain despite his expected practice return.
