Sam Darnold questionable for Divisional Round with oblique injury, expects to play

Seahawks QB Sam Darnold (oblique) is questionable for Saturday's Divisional Round game against the 49ers after feeling an issue in Thursday's practice. Despite Drew Lock taking first-team reps, Darnold expressed high confidence he'll play, stating the likelihood of being unavailable is 'very low, closer to zero.' He played all 17 regular-season games, leading Seattle to a 14-3 record and a Pro Bowl nod despite 20 turnovers. His performance has declined since Week 11, but he aims for playoff redemption. When pressured, Darnold ranks poorly in EPA/dropback and turnover rate.
