Seahawks quarterback Sam Darnold was injured against Chicago. Seahawks head coach Mike Macdonald confirmed Wednesday, according to ESPN reporter Brady Henderson, that Darnold’s availability will be evaluated week to week.

Darnold also suffered a cracked rib on the second play of the game. Despite the additional injury, Seattle will not place him on injured reserve, Macdonald said. The head coach did not provide a specific timeline for Darnold’s absence.

Against Chicago, Darnold completed 17 of 34 passes for 188 yards. He threw two touchdowns and one interception. The 29-year-old has 1,478 passing yards, 10 touchdown passes and nine interceptions so far this season.

The quadriceps injury is not Darnold’s first physical setback this season. Earlier, he injured his glute on the first drive of the season opener, causing him to miss Week 2.

Drew Lock to start against Arizona

The game against the Cardinals will be Lock’s second start of the season. The backup quarterback missed the past two games with an injury to his right elbow. In his two previous appearances, Lock recorded four touchdowns and no interceptions.

Lock also threw for 422 yards in those two games and completed 72.9 percent of his pass attempts. Seattle will turn to the veteran quarterback for now, while Darnold’s return timeline remains unclear.

Macdonald also said the Seahawks might sign a third quarterback. The player would provide backup for Lock and second-round pick Jalen Milroe.

No decision has been made on adding another quarterback. For now, Drew Lock is set to start against Arizona, and Sam Darnold will not be placed on injured reserve.
