This week when the Seattle Seahawks play the Philadelphia Eagles on Monday Night Football, they could have to start Drew Lock, their backup quarterback, once more.
ESPN’s Adam Schefter revealed on social media on Sunday morning that starting quarterback Geno Smith is still experiencing discomfort from his groin injury.
According to insiders, there’s a good likelihood Seattle’s backup quarterback, Drew Lock, will start against the Eagles, according to Schefter.
In the Seahawks’ 28-16 loss to the San Francisco 49ers last week, Lock started the first game of his career.
In the losing effort, he completed 22 of 31 throws for 269 yards and two touchdowns, earning acclaim from both teammates and spectators.
After the game, Pete Carroll, the head coach of the Seahawks, remarked, “He’s had games in the past, but it’s been a while.” “Given how he responded, handled, and communicated inside the huddle, all of the calls and situations, and the adjustments made on the sidelines and at halftime, I don’t see how he would have been more psychologically prepared to take on this assignment to return. He handled it like a true pro. That’s encouraging, and he’s been getting ready for it, so he delivered in that area. He is having a great time and finds great value in this moment.
