Seahawks QB Drew Lock suffered oblique injury in win over Cardinals

The Seattle Seahawks ' quarterback room is the walking wounded these days. Seattle was forced to turn to backup Drew Lock on Sunday with regular starter Sam Darnold sidelined with a quad injury and cracked rib. Lock was banged up himself with "severe tendinitis" in his throwing elbow per NFL insider Tom Pelissero . Unfortunately, Lock wasn't able to escape cleanly.

During the Seahawks' 17-3 win over Arizona, Lock apparently suffered an oblique injury according to head coach Mike Macdonald. His status for Seattle's Week 10 game against the Las Vegas Raiders is now in doubt. If Lock cannot go in Week 10, one begins to wonder who exactly the Seahawks are going to start, because Sam Darnold's status for the Raiders game is also in doubt.

If there is any hope to be found, Drew Lock himself said he feels confident he will be ready to go for next week's game. Lock was asked about it during the postgame press conference and answered in the affirmative.

Lock played his usual efficient self, continuing his streak of keeping the Seahawks undefeated when he's under center. The former Mizzou standout was 19-of-28 for 175 yards and a touchdown. Although those numbers aren't exactly eye-popping, Lock did more than enough to keep Seattle's offense moving and taking full advantage of the Dark Side's dominance. Most importantly, Lock did not turn the ball over once, and the Seahawks' offense played a clean game.

If Lock is unable to go, all eyes turn to second-year quarterback Jalen Milroe.
