Seahawks offense penalized on tush push attempt during halftime deficit to Patriots

The Seattle Seahawks trail the New England Patriots 7-0 at halftime following a scoreless first half plagued by injury and officiating penalties. Starting quarterback Sam Darnold exited the game after the opening drive with a hip injury, forcing backup Drew Lock into duty. A potential momentum-building drive in the second quarter stalled after officials whistled a borderline offside penalty against right guard Anthony Bradford during a short-yardage tush push attempt. The call negated the effort, forcing the team to punt for the fourth time in the half. The Patriots maintained their lead as the teams headed into the locker room. The outcome of the game remains undecided as the Seahawks head into the second half without their starting quarterback.
