Drew Lock Ready to Go if Needed in Divisional Round

Friday, January 16, 5:55 PM

Seattle Seahawks backup quarterback Drew Lock is "ready to go" for the Divisional Round game this Saturday night against the San Francisco 49ers if Sam Darnold (oblique) can't play, according to head coach Mike Macdonald. Darnold popped up on the injury report on Thursday and was limited in practice due to an oblique injury. He is listed as questionable for Saturday's game, but all signs point to Darnold being active this weekend. But for some reason, if Darnold isn't feeling right on Saturday, the Seahawks would roll with Lock and not rookie QB Jalen Milroe. Lock wouldn't be a recommended QB for fantasy playoff lineups if Darnold is inactive. The 29-year-old signal-caller appeared in five games in 2025, going 2-for-3 passing for 15 yards. The Seahawks would most likely lean more on their ground game with running backs Kenneth Walker III and Zach Charbonnet if Lock made the start.

Drew Allar Signs Rookie Contract

Friday, July 24, 9:45 AM

The Pittsburgh Steelers sign rookie quarterback Drew Allar to his four-year rookie contract, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter. The Steelers selected Allar with the No. 76 overall pick in the 2026 NFL Draft in April. The team selected Allar in the third round despite taking Will Howard as a developmental quarterback late in the 2025 NFL Draft. The 22-year-old was polarizing among evaluators and seen as a high-ceiling development prospect with elite traits and raw mechanics. The team has worked closely with Allar to adjust his mechanics and footwork to fit head coach Mike McCarthy's offense. Allar will be battling Mason Rudolph and Howard in training camp for the QB2 job behind Aaron Rodgers.
