Sam Darnold went down hard in the Seahawks’ opener against the Patriots but thankfully avoided a fracture, offering huge relief. While an MRI is still pending, coach Mike Macdonald won’t rule out Darnold playing next week — but it’s clearly day by day. Backup Drew Lock stepped in and delivered a clutch performance, rallying the team from a 10-point deficit with a 45-yard TD pass and going 16-of-22 with no interceptions. Macdonald praised Lock’s clean game, and the team is fully behind him — even as they wait for Darnold’s full diagnosis.
