Sam Darnold is out for Week 10; Drew Lock's oblique tests were good and he's expected to start.

Sam Darnold is out Sunday with a quad injury, and Drew Lock will start, per Mike Macdonald.


The Colts are trading eight-time Pro Bowl guard Quenton Nelson to the Seahawks for a 2027 third-round pick and a 2028 fifth-round pick, according to Adam Schefter of ESPN and Ian Rapoport of NFL Network. Nelson is on an expiring contract, and the Colts are opting to get back draft capital now before they could lose him in free agency.

Seahawks OT Charles Cross, who suffered an ankle injury on Sunday, has a high-ankle sprain and will miss time, the MRI revealed, according to Ian Rapoport of NFL Network. The hope is he's back in 1-2 weeks, but it depends on how rehab goes.
Our Take: Bad timing for a Seattle team that just outgained the Chiefs 410-213 in a 20-3 win, with Sam Darnold converting 11-of-16 third downs. The Seahawks moved up to No. 4 in our Week 8 Power Rankings, and losing Cross for a week or two will test that momentum.

Coach Mike Macdonald announced that the Seahawks are opening the practice window for RB Jadarian Price, according to Ian Rapoport of NFL Network.
Our Take: Price's last notable moment in our recaps wasn't a good one, as his fumble handed the Redskins a free score in Seattle's 33-31 Week 3 loss. The Seahawks have managed fine without him, climbing to No. 4 in our Week 8 Power Rankings after smothering the Chiefs, 20-3.

The Seahawks released CB Trevon Diggs to clear a 53-man roster spot for G Anthony Bradford to come off injured reserve and play vs. the Chiefs on Sunday night, according to Gregg Bell of the Tacoma News Tribune. Bell said the Seahawks will likely seek to re-sign Diggs to the practice squad, where he began the season.

Seahawks coach Mike Macdonald says TE Elijah Arroyo is going to be out a significant amount of time with the shoulder he injured at Denver.

Seahawks coach Mike Macdonald says RB Zach Charbonnet is in for a full week of work and has a good chance of making his season debut Sunday night vs the Chiefs.
