## Resource

Sam Darnold dodged a broken hip but still faces uncertainty for the next game, with an MRI scheduled to clarify his status. In his absence, Drew Lock stepped in and delivered a solid performance—180+ yards, a TD, no picks—leading a comeback win. With Macdonald admitting Darnold’s availability is unclear, Lock’s role expands, offering fantasy value only in deeper leagues. The Seahawks’ offense remains viable thanks to Lock’s arm strength and a strong defense, keeping playmakers like Smith-Njigba and Price in position to thrive.
