Seattle Seahawks coach Mike Macdonald provided injury updates on the team's quarterbacks to Seattle Sports on Monday and said starter Sam Darnold will miss another week and be out for Sunday's game against the Las Vegas Raiders.

Drew Lock is dealing with an oblique injury and had a "good exam." The team expects it to be an injury it can manage and that Lock will be able to start against Las Vegas.

Darnold missed Seattle's Week 9 win over the Arizona Cardinals with a quad injury and a cracked rib from the team's Week 8 loss to the Chicago Bears. Lock filled in and picked up the oblique issue, but it didn't keep him off the field. Backup quarterback Jalen Milroe warmed up just in case, but Lock stayed in the game.

The win over Arizona moved Seattle to 5-4, and the Seahawks are currently second in the NFC West, trailing the 7-1 San Francisco 49ers.

Darnold has played in seven games this season and has gone 3-4 in those starts. He has thrown for 1,478 yards with 10 touchdowns and 9 interceptions.

Lock has made two starts this year, and Seattle has won both. The backup quarterback has thrown for 597 yards with five touchdowns and no interceptions. He hasn't run much, with just 29 yards on seven carries.

After the Week 10 game against Las Vegas, Seattle has its bye week. Darnold will have time to heal and return for a huge divisional game against the 49ers in Week 12.
