Sam Darnold Ruled Out for Week 9 Against Cardinals with Rib and Quad Injuries

Seattle Seahawks quarterback Sam Darnold has been officially ruled out for Sunday's Week 9 clash against the Arizona Cardinals due to a quadriceps injury and a cracked rib. Backup Drew Lock, who is navigating a minor right elbow injury of his own, will make his second start of the season. Darnold is one of six Seahawks starters sidelined for this contest as the 4-4 squad prepares for their upcoming bye.
