Darnold Out Lock Steps Up | Global News

Sam Darnold’s season debut ended early after a hip injury, but backup Drew Lock stepped up heroically, leading the Seahawks to a gritty 13-10 win over the Patriots. Despite being down 7-0 at halftime, Lock orchestrated a stunning second-half comeback capped by a 45-yard TD to Jaxon Smith-Njigba, proving the team’s depth and resilience. With Darnold sidelined for further tests, Lock’s poise under pressure — and the locker room’s unwavering faith in him — kept Seattle alive. The victory underscores how far this team has come since their Super Bowl run, and sets the stage for a critical test of leadership as they navigate Darnold’s recovery.
