Tom Brady shares ‘secret’ advice for Drew Lock amid Sam Darnold’s absence
The Seattle Seahawks are going to be without starting quarterback Sam Darnold this weekend, with Drew Lock ready to lead Mike Macdonald’s offence. Darnold is suffering from a glute injury, which could potentially see him return to the field as early as next week for the East-coast trip to face the Washington Commanders.
The Seattle Seahawks will be without their starting quarterback, Sam Darnold, this weekend due to a glute injury. Drew Lock, the second-string quarterback, is set to take over for the game against the Arizona Cardinals. Lock helped secure a victory in the team's opening day game against the New England Patriots, throwing for one touchdown. Despite his recent performance, Tom Brady, a former Seattle quarterback and legendary player, provided Lock with some advice to help him maintain the team's perfect record.
Brady emphasized the importance of winning against top teams, stating that the Seahawks must beat their rivals, regardless of who is playing quarterback. He also offered Lock a secret QB tip: "Throw it anywhere, anywhere on JSN's side of the field. He is going to come down with it." This advice came after Lock connected with wide receiver Jaxon Smith-Njigba on a fourth-and-one play, resulting in a significant yards after catch run and the only touchdown of the game.
Even without Darnold, the Seahawks' defense has been impressive, not skipping a beat. Lock has also had success in the passing game, connecting with Smith-Njigba on a crucial fourth-down play. Maintaining this connection with Smith-Njigba could give the Seahawks a strong chance at extending their perfect season to 2-0.
