More bad news could be coming for the Commanders in Week 3
The Seahawks could be getting their starting quarterback back for Week 3 vs. Commanders.
Sam Darnold, the No. 3 overall draft pick in 2018, had a breakout season with the Minnesota Vikings in 2024 before signing with the Seattle Seahawks. In Seattle, Darnold led the team to a Super Bowl championship. However, he suffered a glute injury during the season opener against the New England Patriots, keeping him out for a few weeks.
The Seahawks are set to face the 0-2 Washington Commanders, who are without their quarterback, Jayden Daniels, who dislocated his elbow in a previous game against Seattle. Seattle coach Macdonald mentioned on Monday that Darnold "might" play against the Commanders, depending on his recovery. In Darnold's last game against the Commanders, he threw four touchdowns and completed 21 of 24 passes for 330 yards in a 38-14 win. The Commanders face a tough situation with their defense struggling and a key player missing.
