Seahawks consider signing Joe Milton after Sam Darnold sustains injury

Seattle Seahawks quarterback Sam Darnold exited the season opener against the New England Patriots after sustaining an injury. The team evaluated Darnold in the medical tent before ruling him out for the remainder of the contest. While the Seahawks currently have Drew Lock available as a replacement on the roster, analysts are suggesting the club may need further depth at the position. One potential candidate is Joe Milton III, who is currently on the Dallas Cowboys practice squad. Signing Milton would require the Seahawks to place him on their active roster for a minimum of three games. The organization has not announced a formal decision regarding their quarterback depth following the injury to Darnold.
