The Seattle Seahawks have made a strategic addition to their quarterback room by signing Drew Lock to back up Sam Darnold. Lock, a former second-round pick, has experience playing for the Giants last season, where he had a mixed performance with a record of 1-4 as a starter. In 2022 and 2023, he had a stint with the Seahawks as part of the Russell Wilson trade but did not see significant playing time during his first year. Lock's best outing came against the Indianapolis Colts, throwing for 309 yards and five touchdowns, which showcased his potential to contribute meaningfully from the bench.

In his six seasons, Lock has amassed 6,354 passing yards and 34 touchdowns across 28 starts. His upcoming role will be crucial, especially as the Seahawks adapt to a new offensive scheme under Klint Kubiak. As injuries can impact roster decisions, Lock could see playing time if Darnold struggles. Fantasy managers should monitor his status closely as he may provide value in deeper leagues, especially if he takes the field.
