Overview

• Drew Lock, 28, is rejoining the Seattle Seahawks after an underwhelming tenure with the New York Giants last season.
• Lock is expected to serve as a backup to newly acquired quarterback Sam Darnold, who signed a three-year, $100.5 million deal with the Seahawks.
• Lock's previous stint with Seattle included two seasons as a backup following his acquisition in the Russell Wilson trade in 2022.
• The Seahawks are also evaluating quarterback prospects, including Louisville's Tyler Shough and Alabama's Jalen Milroe, as part of their long-term planning.
• Lock's return raises questions about Sam Howell's future with the team, as Howell struggled during his first season in Seattle.
