Hip Injury in Opener Raises Questions About Seahawks' Offseason Moves The news of Sam Darnold's hip injury is a setback for the Seattle Seahawks, but it also highlights the team's decision to start him over Drew Lock, despite Lock's experience and success in relief roles.
This move has been widely questioned, and now that Darnold is out with an injury, questions about the team's commitment to building a winning roster are being raised.
Darnold's signing was seen as a coup for the Seahawks, bringing a proven quarterback with a Super Bowl win under his belt. However, his struggles last season should have raised red flags.
