If Darnold injury is serious, it basically takes away one contender in the nfc. I like Seattle’s defense but it’s not great enough to overcome that injury and lock at Qb for 17 weeks

Is he out or still questionable?

I didnt see the play but if its a hip, its pretty unlikely to be serious.

Its very rare to dislocate. Its really hard to fracture unless you are older with brittle bones.

One typical and more severe injury would be a sports hernia but those are usually referred to as core injuries rather than hip injuries.

Another more likely injury might be a hip pointer which wouldnt be a long term thing at all.

We got the 2028 pick not 2027. But we do have their 5th rounder in 2027 so we can get the first pick in the 5th if it goes your way

I would have to think it is a potential fracture for Darnold

This game is doodoo

First QB casualty two hours into the season. I wish we weren't dicking around with our backup situation.

Just ruled him out

I’m guessing it’s serious as he hasn’t even come back out to the sideline and just ruled out. Clearly needs a hip replacement

Wow Lock sucks, 3 different options wide open to gain yards and he decides to choose none lol

Thats a crazy call. the camera angle was not straight down the line. It looked very likely that his body AND the ball were beyond the line if you had a proper shot.

dope coulda run for the first

As a hip replacement survivor i can tell You if he fractured it he wouldnt have been walking at all

Probably a hip pointer but those are painful and slow to heal.

I just don’t know why they would keep him out of the game if it was a hip pointer.

Those can be pretty debilitating short term. With a busier schedule like in basketball, you can see a player miss a few games.

With a week between games, Darnold would be extremely likely to be ready to play next week.

If he's lucky it's just a pointer and not anything severe to his labrum.

I thought it was a knee injury at first lol

If i had to guess probably a labral tear if it’s really bad

If Darnold is out for the year or most of it then the Seahawks need to meet the Bengals price for Joe Flacco. I think he is by far the best trade option for them.

Didn’t look like he took a shot to the hip though. Looked like his foot skipped weird, I think it’s more likely a pulled jawner.

A hip labrum injury is pretty unsevere. Often dont need surgery. If they do, they can pretty much surely play the season with it and fix it in the offseason. Steroid injections are very effective in treating hip labrum symptoms.

Labrum injuries are very common in sprinting, and skating. Players play through them all the time. Most of the NHL probably has torn labrums.

How many QBs play through them having to throw the ball and step into throws? I’m guessing if it’s that and it’s bad enough he can’t.

Even if it's not serious, they've got 2025 Eagles written all over them. Tired team, elite defense, and a bad offense that is just going to grind on that defense.

We still have a freaking 8 game losing streak to that team and have not eclipsed 17 points in any of those games...so I doubt we'll beat a still solid Seahawks team this year, but I'm not feeling it for the Seahawks.

I think it wouldnt be a big issue.

The issue with the torn labrum is if you have a cam or pincer that causes recurring issues. Then you get that shaved off to prevent it from continuing. Those things tend to fray on the labrum and cause pain.

Torn hip labrum is not really that painful and again, a steroid injection to take away inflammation pretty effectively treats the pain.

Its not like in the shoulder where the torn labrum can cause significant instability.

Its mostly a treat the pain injury rather than worry about fixing it. Because without the pain you typically dont have any issues.
