The Seattle Seahawks have lost three back-to-back games. For their NFC playoff dreams to have a solid chance of becoming a reality, they cannot afford to lose the upcoming game against the San Francisco 49ers. But ahead of the game, there is some concerning news coming out of the Seahawks’ camp.

Will Drew Lock manage to lead his team to victory against the 49ers? The 49ers will enter Week 14 with a 9-3 record, while the Seahawks have a 0.500 record.

Drew Lock will lead the Seahawks against the 49ers

Senior NFL Insider Adam Schefter took to X to announce that QB Geno Smith has been ruled out of the game due to a persistent groin injury. Backup QB Drew Lock will fill in for him. Although the injury report ahead of the game painted a bleak picture, many doubtful players, such as Ken Walker and Zach Charbonnet, have been listed as active.

Smith suffered a groin injury on Thursday during their second-last practice session of the week. Even though doctors prohibited him from playing a game for the next two weeks, the QB hoped he would play against the 49ers today. However, that is the case, as the Seahawks want to stay on the side of caution and prevent further damage to their star QB.

Head Coach Pete Carroll expresses faith in Lock

While the Seahawks’ former QB Russell Wilson went to Denver Broncos, the Broncos traded their starting QB Lock to the Seahawks. The team had drafted him in 2019 and he started for the Broncos in three seasons. In Denver, he threw 225 touchdowns but ended his stint there with an 8-13 record.

Seahawks HC Pete Carroll trusted Lock and said, “I know for him, he’s been really disciplined about the way he focuses every week.” In the last clash on Thanksgiving Day, the 49ers had beaten the Seahawks 31-13 at Lumen Field. Historically, in the previous four games the two teams have played against each other, the 49ers have won all four by a combined score of 120-56.
