Seahawks head coach Mike Macdonald addressed the media regarding multiple injury concerns, including Charles Cross and Leonard Williams(0:17). Williams is dealing with a stinger that varies in severity, while Drew Lock has an oblique injury but is expected to play, similar to last week's approach (1:35). Sam Darnold is progressing and could return after the bye week (1:58). Quenton Nelson had surgery and is considered week to week without being placed on IR (18:16). Macdonald praised the team's performance, particularly highlighting DeMarcus Lawrence's dominant game and Nick Emmanwori's excellent coverage work, especially against McBride (4:12, 11:41). The coach emphasized the importance of small margins in games and the need for the team to chase edges and accumulate advantages, noting that while there were situational successes, there's room for improvement in details and early-down efficiency (2:37, 5:25). Regarding the offensive line, Anthony Bradford and Grey Zabel returned to their spots, and Macdonald expects improvement after a full week of practice together (12:16). Connor O'Toole contributed despite not practicing all week (12:46). Regarding the quarterback situation, Macdonald expressed confidence in Jalen Milroe's readiness after getting first-team reps in practice, showing improved poise and decisiveness, though Drew Lock has earned the starting opportunity (15:29).See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
