The Seattle Seahawks rule quarterback Sam Darnold out for their Week 2 game against the Arizona Cardinals. Ahead of Sunday’s matchup, Seahawks head coach Mike Macdonald provides the latest update on Darnold’s availability.
Multiple outlets report that the decision comes after a health-related issue affecting Darnold, with Fox Sports specifying it as a glute problem. Yahoo Sports and Fox Sports frame the update as a coach-confirmed status for the upcoming game, while Newsweek describes the outcome as the Seahawks’ final Week 2 decision. While the outlets differ slightly in wording—such as emphasizing the coach’s confirmation versus the official ruling—they align on the main point that Darnold is not expected to play in Week 2.
The teams prepare for the road matchup with Seattle proceeding without Darnold for the Cardinals game.
